Solving Problems at the System Component Level Appendix E Troubleshooting • System software boots successfully. • The supervisor engine and all switching modules are installed properly in their slots, and each was initialized without problems. If one or more of the above conditions are not met, use the procedures in this chapter to isolate and, if possible, resolve the problem. If all of the above conditions are met, and the hardware installation is complete, refer to these publications to troubleshoot the software: Catalyst 6500 Series Switch Software Configuration Guide, the Catalyst 6500 Series Switch Cisco IOS Software Configuration Guide, the Catalyst 6500 Series Switch Command Reference, or the Catalyst 6500 Series Switch Cisco IOS Command Reference. Also, refer to your software release notes for hardware support information and software caveats. Solving Problems at the System Component Level The key to success when troubleshooting the system is to isolate the problem to a specific system component. The first step is to compare what the system is doing to what it should be doing. Because a startup problem can usually be attributed to a single component, it is more efficient to isolate the problem to a subsystem rather than troubleshoot each separate component in the system. The switch consists of these subsystems: • Power supply-Includes the power supplies and power supply fans. • Fan assembly-The chassis fan assembly should operate whenever system power is on. You should see the FAN LED turn green and hear the fan assembly operating. A red FAN LED indicates that one or more fans in the fan assembly is not operating. You should immediately contact a customer service representative if the fan assembly is not functioning properly. (See the "Contacting Customer Service" section on page E-7.) There are no installation adjustments that you can make if the fan assembly does not function properly at initial startup. • Supervisor engine-The supervisor engine contains the system operating software, so check your supervisor engine if you have trouble with the system software. Status LEDs on the supervisor engine indicate whether or not the supervisor engine is able to initialize the switching module. If you have a redundant supervisor engine, refer to the Catalyst 6500 Series Switch Software Configuration Guide or the Catalyst 6500 Series Switch Cisco IOS Software Configuration Guide publications for descriptions of how the redundant supervisor engine comes online and how the software images are handled. • Switching modules-Status LEDs on each switching module indicate if the module has been initialized by the supervisor engine. A switching module that is partially installed in the backplane can cause the system to halt. Catalyst 6500 Series Switches Installation Guide E-2 OL-5781-04

Catalyst 6500 Series Switches Installation Guide

OL-5781-04

Appendix E

Troubleshooting

Solving Problems at the System Component Level

•

System software boots successfully.

•

The supervisor engine and all switching modules are installed properly in their slots, and each was

initialized without problems.

If one or more of the above conditions are not met, use the procedures in this chapter to isolate and, if

possible, resolve the problem. If all of the above conditions are met, and the hardware installation is

complete, refer to these publications to troubleshoot the software:

Catalyst 6500 Series Switch Software

Configuration Guide,

the

Catalyst 6500 Series Switch Cisco IOS Software Configuration Guide,

the

Catalyst 6500 Series Switch Command Reference,

or the

Catalyst 6500 Series Switch Cisco IOS

Command Reference

. Also, refer to your software release notes for hardware support information and

software caveats.

Solving Problems at the System Component Level

The key to success when troubleshooting the system is to isolate the problem to a specific system

component. The first step is to compare what the system

doing

to what it

should be doing

. Because a

startup problem can usually be attributed to a single component, it is more efficient to isolate the problem

to a subsystem rather than troubleshoot each separate component in the system.

The switch consists of these subsystems:

•

Power supply—Includes the power supplies and power supply fans.

•

Fan assembly—The chassis fan assembly should operate whenever system power is on. You should

see the FAN LED turn green and hear the fan assembly operating. A red FAN LED indicates that

one or more fans in the fan assembly is not operating. You should immediately contact a customer

service representative if the fan assembly is not functioning properly. (See the

“Contacting

Customer Service” section on page E-7

.) There are no installation adjustments that you can make if

the fan assembly does not function properly at initial startup.

•

Supervisor engine—The supervisor engine contains the system operating software, so check your

supervisor engine if you have trouble with the system software. Status LEDs on the supervisor

engine indicate whether or not the supervisor engine is able to initialize the switching module.

If you have a redundant supervisor engine, refer to the

Catalyst 6500 Series Switch Software

Configuration Guide

or the

Catalyst 6500 Series Switch Cisco IOS Software Configuration Guide

publications for descriptions of how the redundant supervisor engine comes online and how the

software images are handled.

•

Switching modules—Status LEDs on each switching module indicate if the module has been

initialized by the supervisor engine. A switching module that is partially installed in the backplane

can cause the system to halt.
