Troubleshooting Hotplugging the Ethernet Link doesn't Reset IP or Link Rate A Hotplugging the Ethernet Link doesn't Reset IP or Link Rate Problem Scenario: When you disconnect an Ethernet link and reconnect it, the IP address and link rate should reset. For example, if you unplug a cable from the NSS to a 100 Mbps switch and then reconnect the NSS to a 1 Gps switch, the link is not restored. Resolution: To resolve the problem: STEP 1 Unplug the desired Ethernet link. STEP 2 Wait at least 15 seconds. STEP 3 Reconnect the link. STEP 4 Wait 10 seconds. The link should be re-established correctly. You can view the status from the System Status page on the configuration interface. Unable to Create a Share or Quota for a Volume Problem Scenario: You cannot create a quota or share. When you attempt to create a share, the volume does not appear in the Location field. When you try to create a quota, the quota is not successfully added for the volume. Resolution: The problem is likely caused by the volume being locked. An encrypted volume is automatically locked whenever the NSS is rebooted or is manually locked through the configuration interface. As long as the volume is locked, you cannot use the volume to create shares or quotas (you can however, set up the Home Directory Location). To resolve the problem: STEP 1 From the Manager Menu, click Storage Volumes. STEP 2 If the problem is due to the volume being locked, the Unlock button appears next to the volume in the Action column. Click Unlock. STEP 3 Enter the password for the volume. STEP 4 Click OK. You should now be able to create a share or quota for the volume. Cisco Small Business NSS2000 Series Administration Guide 156

Hotplugging the Ethernet Link doesn’t Reset IP or Link Rate
Problem Scenario:
When you disconnect an Ethernet link and reconnect it, the IP
address and link rate should reset. For example, if you unplug a cable from the
NSS to a 100 Mbps switch and then reconnect the NSS to a 1 Gps switch, the link
is not restored.
Resolution:
To resolve the problem:
STEP 1
Unplug the desired Ethernet link.
STEP 2
Wait at least 15 seconds.
STEP 3
Reconnect the link.
STEP 4
Wait 10 seconds.
The link should be re-established correctly. You can view the status from the
System Status
page on the configuration interface.
Unable to Create a Share or Quota for a Volume

create a share, the volume does not appear in the
Location

encrypted volume is automatically locked whenever the NSS is rebooted or is
manually locked through the configuration interface. As long as the volume is
locked, you cannot use the volume to create shares or quotas (you can however,
set up the Home Directory Location). To resolve the problem:
STEP 1
From the
Manager Menu
, click
Storage
¨
Volumes.
STEP 2
If the problem is due to the volume being locked, the
Unlock
button appears next
to the volume in the
Action
column. Click

STEP 3
Enter the password for the volume.
STEP 4
Click
OK
