Chapter 3: Troubleshooting

If a SBx Status LED is flashing amber, the line card has experienced a 
FAULT or an error condition. See “SBx STATUS LED Description on the 
Active AT-SBx31CFC Fabric Control Card” on page 23 for an explanation 
of all status conditions.

All line cards are hot swappable. This allows the AC power to be 
connected to the SwitchBlade x3112 while you re-seat or exchange 
line cards.

ˆ

If a FAULT condition is encountered for one of the card slots, you can 
attempt to restart the line card. The following example is for restarting 
a card in slot 2:

officer SEC>> restart card 2

You will be prompted as follows - enter y for YES:

Do you really want to restart card 2 (Y/N)? y

Command has been submitted

officer SEC>>

ˆ

If the RESTART CARD command is not successful, remove the line 
card from the slot and re-seat until the face plate is flush with the 
chassis front panel. Wait for 2 to 3 minutes for it to come on line. If it 
successfully comes up, the SBx Status LED for the slot in question 
turns to solid green. 

ˆ

You can obtain specific card status information for each card slot 
through the Switchblade x3112 Management Software by entering the 
SHOW CARD command as follows:

officer SEC>> show card

ˆ

If the SBx Status LED for the slot is continues to flash amber after the 
above actions have been taken, contact Allied Telesis for further 
assistance. Please report the slot where the SBx Status LED fault 
condition is present and the information obtained from the SHOW 
CARD command.
