5 Firmware download issues Symptom Symptom The blade is faulty (issue slotShow to confirm). Probable cause and recommended action If the port or application blade is faulty, enter the slotPowerOff and slotPowerOn commands for the port or application blade. If the port or application blade still appears to be faulty, remove it and re-insert it into the chassis. The AP blade is stuck in the "LOADING" state (issue slotShow to confirm).

When it boots up, autoleveling will be triggered and the firmware download will be attempted again.
