failure timestamp is the number of seconds since the last system reboot. The current configured power supply monitoring threshold value
is also displayed at the end of the output.
Syntax: show power-supply-monitoring
Enabling a power supply shutdown
NOTE
The power-on power supply and power-off power-supply commands are not available on some power supplies. These
commands can be useful for Brocade Technical Support when troubleshooting a router. It is recommended you use the
commands only when troubleshooting a router with Brocade Technical Support.
NOTE
There is a 10 second delay between the power-off lp command and the power-on lp command. Wait 10 seconds between
commands.
The power-off power-supply command allows you to shut down a power supply manually.
To shut down a power supply, enter the following command.
Brocade# power-off power-supply 3
This will Shutdown The Power Supply # 3
Are you sure? (enter 'y' or 'n'): y
ERROR: Power Supply # 3 is the Last Available in the system and will not be shutdown.
To force the shutdown, please use keyword "forced"
Syntax: power-off power-supply [forced] <decimal>
The power-supply keyword allows you to shut down a power supply.
