In a DCX-4S, slot 5 is occupied by a control processor blade (Blade ID 50). On a DCX, slot 5 is occupied by the core blade (Blade ID 52). On page 927, the description for the -p operand should be clarified to avoid the impression that this command displays real-time power consumption data. This is not the case. Real-time power consumption data is displayed for 16G platforms only with the chassisShow command. The data displayed in the "DC Power Consumption" column and in the summary field "Total DC Power consumption" indicate the maximum allowed power consumption, not a real-time value. -p In addition to the basic slot status view, this command displays the following information about power consumption: • The maximum allowed direct current (DC) power consumption for the chassis and individual values for each blade (in Watts).

Augment the note on
page 751 and in the corresponding man pag as followse:
This diagnostic cannot be run on an operational switch. You must disable the switch using the
chassisDisable
command before you can run this test. After the test completes, re-enable the switch
using the
chassisEnable
command.
Do NOT use the
switchDisable
command followed by manually shutting down
the ports before
running the test. This will not work, because executing
switchEnable
, after the test completes,
will leave
the ports in the same state as before. The only way to bring the ports down before running the test and
back up after the test completes is by using the
chassisDisable
command followed by the
chassisEnable
command

slotShow
In the Notes section, the following note to clarify the description of slot 5 in a DCX and in a DCX-4S.
In a DCX-4S, slot 5 is occupied by a control processor blade (Blade ID 50). On a DCX, slot 5 is occupied
by the core blade (Blade ID 52).
On page 927, the description for the
-p
operand should be clarified to avoid the impression that this
command displays real-time power consumption data. This is not the case. Real-time power
consumption data is displayed for 16G platforms only with the
chassisShow
command. The data
displayed in the "DC Power Consumption” column and in the summary field "Total DC Power
consumption” indicate the maximum allowed power consumption, not a real-time value.
-p
In addition to the basic slot status view, this command displays the following
information about power consumption:
The maximum allowed direct current (DC) power consumption for the chassis
and individual values for each blade (in Watts). Note that usage for other
components is included but not listed
