Booting Stacked Configurations Booting OmniSwitch 6400 Series Switches Booting Stacked Configurations Once the switches have been connected to a virtual chassis, the next step is to manually power on the stack. The OmniSwitch 6400 Series switch does not use an on/off switch. The power cord is the switch's only connect/disconnect device. The power connector socket is located on the switch's rear panel. For more information, refer to "OmniSwitch 6400 Series Chassis and Hardware Components" on page 2-1. To boot the stack, plug the power cord (provided) into the power connector socket at the rear panel of each switch in the stack. Next, plug all power cords, in rapid succession, into easily-accessible power sources, such as grounded AC outlets or an Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS). Note. Be sure to power on all switches in the stack in rapid succession; otherwise, switches may be assigned unintended stack management roles. Refer to Chapter 5, "Managing OmniSwitch 6400 Series Stacks." for detailed information. The stack immediately begins the boot process. Allow a few moments for all elements in the stack to boot completely, then verify the status of all LEDs on the switch's front panel. A successful boot for a stacked OmniSwitch displays the following LED states. LED States for a Stacked Configuration OK Solid green for all switches. PRI Solid green: Primary management module Solid amber: Secondary management module Off: Idle (Neither primary or secondary) PWR BPS Slot Indicator Detailed information for primary, secondary, and idle roles is provided in Chapter 5, "Managing OmniSwitch 6400 Series Stacks." Solid green for all switches. Solid green: Operational Solid amber: Failed Off: Not present 1-8: Depending on the slot number assignment for each switch. See Chapter 5, "Managing OmniSwitch 6400 Series Stacks." for detailed information. If any of the LED state differs from the states shown in the table above, refer to page 2-20 for more information.

Booting Stacked Configurations
Once the switches have been connected to a virtual chassis, the next step is to manually power on the
stack. The OmniSwitch 6400 Series switch does not use an on/off switch. The power cord is the switch’s
only connect/disconnect device. The power connector socket is located on the switch’s rear panel. For
more information, refer to
“OmniSwitch 6400 Series Chassis and Hardware Components” on page 2-1
.
To boot the stack, plug the power cord (provided) into the power connector socket at the rear panel of each
switch in the stack. Next, plug all power cords, in rapid succession, into easily-accessible power sources,
such as grounded AC outlets or an Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS).
Note.
Be sure to power on all switches in the stack in
rapid succession
; otherwise, switches may be
assigned unintended stack management roles. Refer to
Chapter 5, “Managing OmniSwitch 6400 Series
Stacks.”
for detailed information.
The stack immediately begins the boot process. Allow a few moments for all elements in the stack to boot
completely, then verify the status of all LEDs on the switch’s front panel. A successful boot for a stacked
OmniSwitch displays the following LED states.
If any of the LED state differs from the states shown in the table above, refer to

for more infor-
mation. Contact Alcatel-Lucent Customer Support if the LED state persists.
