•

Intermittent FAULTY codes for blades. Re-seat the blade and visually inspect the right-hand 
ejector stiffening rail for possible wear or damage. It is important that the blade ejector 
handles not slip out during blade installation. If this happens, it is usually due to excessive 
wear or damage to the right-hand ejector stiffening rail.

•

The psShow or fanShow commands continue to show a faulty component even though the 
component was replaced.

•

The slotShow command continues to show a faulty control processor, core switch, or port blade 
even though the blade was replaced.
