FTOS actually saves up to three persistent files depending upon the type of failure. When reporting an RPM failover triggered by a loss of the IPC or IRC heartbeats, look for failure records in the following directories: - Application or kernel core dump RP in the CORE_DUMP_DIR - CP trace log file (look for a filename with the phrase "failure_trace") in the TRACE_LOG_DIR - RP and/or CP sysinfo file in the CRASH_LOG_DIR, as explained above Bootup diagnostics During bootup and reset of a card, diagnostics check the status of key hardware sub-components and verify that all ASICs initialize successfully. Recognizing bootup failure Any detected failures or errors during bootup are reported via Syslog. The messages in Message 5 and Message 6 might be reported for line card failures and RPMs, respectively. Message 5 Line Card Boot Up Failure Syslog Messages %CHAGT-5-LINK_STATUS_DOWN: Link status bad for port pipe [number] on line card [number] %CHAGT-5-PORT PIPE DOWN: Port pipe [number] down or errored on line card [number] Message 6 RPM Boot Up Failure Syslog Messages %CHMGR-2-RPM_ISOLATED: Active RPM is unable to talk to line cards %CHMGR-3-RAM_STANDBY_RPM_FAULT: Secondary RPM fault detected %CHMGR-3-RPM_POST_PORTPIPE_FAIL: RPM port pipe fails on boot up test %CHMGR-3-RPM_DRIVER_OPEN_FAIL: RPM driver open fails on boot up %CHMGR-3-RPM_SWITCH_OPEN_FAIL: RPM switch driver fails on boot up %CHMGR-3-RPM_POST_RTC_FAIL: RPM RTC fails on boot up test Troubleshoot bootup failure If these messages are seen, collect the output of the show console lp and show tech commands and contact the Dell Force10 Technical Assistance Center. Environmental monitoring All C-Series components use environmental monitoring hardware to detect overtemperature, undervoltage, and overvoltage conditions. Use the show environment command to monitor the components for any major or minor alarm conditions. The output in Figure 60-5 displays the environment status of the RPM.
