Bringing Up and Verifying FCCs
Examples
This section contains an example for the following task:
Verify That All Fabric Planes Are Ready to Handle Data, page 3-36
Verify That All Fabric Planes Are Ready to Handle Data
In the following examples, the fabric planes are examined in administration EXEC mode to ensure that
they are ready to handle traffic.
show controllers fabric rack all detail
In the following example, the rack status is normal and the server status is present.
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(admin)# show controllers fabric rack all detail
Rack Rack Server
Num Status Status
---- ------ ------
0 NORMAL PRESENT
1 NORMAL PRESENT
F0 NORMAL PRESENT
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(admin)#
show controllers fabric plane all detail
In the following example, all eight planes are displayed, and the administ rative and operational state of
each plane is up.
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(admin)# show controllers fabric plane all detail
Step4 show controllers fabric connectivity all detail
Example:
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(admin)# show controllers fabric
connectivity all detail
Displays the LCC cards that can communicate
with all eight fabric planes.
The expected output should contain a
series of ‘1’s for each of the fabric planes
active in the system. If a fabric plane is
administratively “shutdown” the output of
the command above remains the same. If
the fabric card is physically removed or
powered down, the “1” changes to “.”
Step5 On the external Catalyst switches, verify that the links are not
unidirectional.
Verifies that the links from the chassis to the
external Catalyst switches are operating
correctly.
If a unidirectional link is present, a loop
may occur.
For instructions to verify the Ca talyst
links, see the “Verifying the Catalyst
Switch” section on page3-18. The
verification commands must be entered
from a terminal directly connected to the
external Catalyst switches, using
Cisco IOS CLI commands.
