Resetting the Flexible Flash Controller

In normal operation, it should not be necessary to reset the Cisco Flexible Flash. We recommend that you perform this procedure only when explicitly directed to do so by a technical support representative.

Note This operation will disrupt traffic to the virtual drives on the Cisco Flexible Flash controller.

Before You Begin

•You must log in with admin privileges to perform this task.

•Cisco Flexible Flash must be supported by your platform.

Procedure

	Command or Action	Purpose
Step 1	Server# scope chassis	Enters the chassis command mode.
Step 2	Server /chassis # scope flexflash	Enters the Cisco Flexible Flash controller command
	index	mode for the specified controller. At this time, the only
		permissible index value is FlexFlash-0.
Step 3	Server /chassis/flexflash # reset	Resets the Cisco Flexible Flash controller.

This example resets the flash controller:

Server# scope chassis

Server /chassis # scope flexflash FlexFlash-0

Server /chassis/flexflash # reset

This operation will reset Cisco Flexible Flash controller.
