POST and boot specifications

POST is a system check that is performed each time the switch is powered on, rebooted, or reset. During POST, the LEDs flash different colors. Any errors that occur during POST are listed in the error log.

The 8Gb SAN Switch performs POST when it is turned on or rebooted. Total boot time with POST is approximately three minutes.

POST can be omitted for subsequent reboots by using the fastboot command. For more information about this command, refer to the latest version of the Fabric OS command reference guide. If you suspect a problem with the switch, enable POST to obtain more information on any failure.

POST

The success/failure results of the diagnostic tests that run during POST can be monitored through the error log or the command line interface.

POST includes the following steps:

•Preliminary POST diagnostics are run.

•Operating system is initialized.

•Hardware is initialized.

•Diagnostic tests are run on several functions, including circuitry, port functionality, memory, statistics counters, and serialization.

Boot

Boot completes in approximately three minutes if POST is run. Boot includes the following tasks after POST completes:

•Universal port configuration

•Links initialized

•Fabric is analyzed; if any ports are connected to other switches, the 8Gb SAN Switch participates in a fabric configuration

•The 8Gb SAN Switch obtains a domain ID and assigns port addresses

•Unicast routing tables constructed

•Normal port operation enabled

Interpreting POST results

To determine whether POST completed successfully and whether any errors were detected:

1.Verify that the 8Gb SAN Switch LEDs indicate all components are healthy. See Table 16, page 35 for description and interpretation of LED patterns. If one or more LEDs do not display a Healthy state, use the switchshow command to verify that the LEDs on the switch are not set to “beacon”.
