Configuring and Troubleshooting Interfaces

SLOT 10 : RUN IOS

SLOT 11 : RUN IOS

SLOT 13 : RUN IOS

SLOT 14 : RUN IOS

Note It is possible for the value of an alphanumeric LED to be reversed. For example, IOS RUN may be displayed as RUN IOS.

If the alphanumeric LEDs on the line card display anything other than IOS RUN, or the RP is neither the active Master/Primary nor the Slave/Secondary, there is a problem and the line card has not fully loaded correctly. Before replacing the line card, try fixing the problem by following these steps:

Step 1 Reload the microcode using the global configuration microcode reload slot command.

Step 2 Reload the line card using the hw-module slot reload command. This causes the line card to reset and download the MBus and fabric downloader software modules before attempting to download the Cisco IOS software.

or

Step 3 Reset the line card manually. This may rule out any problems that are caused by a bad connection to the MBus or switching fabric.

Fabric Ping Failure

Fabric ping failures occur when either a line card or the secondary RP fails to respond to a fabric ping request from the primary RP over the switch fabric. Such failures are a problem symptom that should be investigated. They are indicated by the following error messages:

%GRP-3-FABRIC_UNI: Unicast		send timed out (1)
%GRP-3-COREDUMP: Core	dump	incident on slot 1, error: Fabric ping failure
%LCINFO-3-CRASH: Line	card	in slot 1 crashed
