Reset the SFM
When the SFM is taken offline due to an error condition, you can execute the reset sfm command and
initiate a manual recovery.
When an error is detected on an SFM module, this command is a manual recovery mechanism. Since this
command can be used with live traffic running, the switch fabric will not go down if the switch fabric is in
an UP state. When there is a full set of SFMs online in the chassis, resetting one SFM will reduce the total
bandwidth supported by the chassis and may effect data flow. A warning message is issued at the command
line and requires user confirmation to proceed.
FTOS#reset sfm 0
SFM0 is active. Resetting it might temporarily impact data traffic.
Proceed with reset [confirm yes/no]:yes
