Displaying the Module Recovery Setting
To display the module recovery setting, use the following command:
show slot
The show slot output includes the shutdown configuration. If you configure the module
recovery setting to shut down, the output displays an “E” flag that indicates any errors
detected on the slot disables all ports on the slot. The “E” flag appears only if you configure
the module recovery setting to shut down.
reset
Single MSM Resets the MSM.
Dual MSM Resets the primary MSM and fails over to the backup MSM.
I/O Module Resets the I/O module a maximum of five times. After the fifth time,
the I/O module is permanently taken offline.
shutdown
Single MSM The MSM is available for debugging purposes only (the I/O ports
also go down); however, you must clear the shutdown state using
the clear sys-recovery-level command for the MSM to
become operational.
After you clear the shutdown state, you must reboot the switch.
For more information see, Clearing the Shutdown State on
page 211.
Dual MSM The MSMs are available for debugging purposes only (the I/O ports
also go down); however, you must clear the shutdown state using
the clear sys-recovery-level command for the MSM to
become operational.
After you clear the shutdown state, you must reboot the switch.
For more information see, Clearing the Shutdown State on
page 211.
I/O Module Reboots the I/O module. When the module comes up, the ports
remain inactive because you must clear the shutdown state using
the clear sys-recovery-level command for the I/O module
to become operational.
After you clear the shutdown state, you must reset each affected
I/O module or reboot the switch.
For more information see, Clearing the Shutdown State on
page 211.
