Figure 12-2. EH Line Card with Card Problem
Select a CAM-profile template
The CAM-profile is selected in CONFIGURATION mode.
• The CAM-profile template is applied to entire system. You must save the running-configuration to
enable the change. Saving the running-configuration also ensures that the CAM-profile selected
remains in the case of a reboot.
• All components in the chassis must have the same CAM-profile and microcode. The profile and
microcode loaded on the primary RPM determines the profile that is required on all other chassis
components.
• If a newly installed line card has a profile different from the primary RPM, the card reboots so that it
can load the proper profile.
• If the standby RPM has a profile different from the primary RPM, the RPM reboots so that it can load
the proper profile.
• Enabling a CAM-profile immediately replaces the existing CAM-profile. You will be prompted to save
the running-configuration and reload the system to implement the new CAM-profile.
Select pre-defined CAM-profile template
Pre-defined CAM-profiles have been verified by Dell Force10. You must configure the regions and their
parameters to get the template desired.
Note: The CAM-profiles are NOT automatically created when you select one of the templates. You must
enter the region allocations manually. Use the CAM-profile allocations in Table 12-3.
