Enabled
NSF Operational
Status Indicates whether NSF is enabled on the stack.
Last Startup Reason The type of activation that caused the software to start the last time:
• “Power-On” means that the switch rebooted. This could have been caused by a
power cycle or an administrative “Reload” command.
• “Administrative Move” means that the administrator issued the
movemanagement command for the stand-by manager to take over.
• “Warm-Auto-Restart” means that the primary management card restarted due to
a failure, and the system executed a nonstop forwarding failover.
• “Cold-Auto-Restart” means that the system switched from the active manager to
the backup manager and was unable to maintain user data traffic. This is usually
caused by multiple failures occurring close together.
