Installing and removing a compact flash card
Compact flash cards can be inserted into the compact flash slot at any time. CLI
messages are displayed when a card is inserted or removed. It takes
approximately two seconds for an inserted card to be initialised. Messages
notify the user when a card has been inserted:
Info (1106257): Compact flash card inserted.
and when the card is ready for use:
Info (1106268): Compact flash card initialisation successful.
A message notifies the user if the compact flash card is not compatible with the
switch:
Info (3106300): Compact flash card initialisation
unsuccessful.
When compact flash is in use, the compact flash Activity LED on the rear panel
of the switch is green.
Do not remove the compact flash card when it is being written to (that is, when
the compact flash Activity LED is lit). Doing so will corrupt data on the file
being written.
Testing a compact flash card
To display information about the basic state of a compact flash card, including
card size, file count and serial number, insert the card and enter the command:
SHOW CFLASH
To display cluster ranges on a card, insert the card and enter:

To test a card, insert the card and enter:
ENABLE CFLASH TEST START=startnumber END=endnumber
