Chapter 1 Overview
STATUS LED
The STATUS LED indicates the operating states of the NAM. Table 1-3 describes the LED operation.
SHUTDOWN Button
Caution Do not remove the NAM from the switch until the NAM has shut down completely and the STATUS
LED is orange. You risk disk corruption if you remove the NAM from the switch before the NAM
completely shuts down.
To avoid corrupting the NAM hard disk, you must correctly shut down the NAM before you remove it
from the chassis or disconnect the power. This shutdown procedure is normally initiated by commands
entered at the supervisor engine CLI prompt or the NAM CLI prompt.
Note If disk corruption occurs, you can recover the disk by reupgrading the application image with the
--install option. See “Upgrading the NAM Application Software with Catalyst Operating System
Software” section on page 4-17.
If the NAM fails to respond to these commands properly, press the SHUTDOWN button on the front
panel to initiate the shutdown procedure.
The shutdown procedure may require several minutes. The STATUS LED turns off when the NAM shuts
down.
