NETGEAR 8800 Chassis Switch CLI Manual Are you sure you want to shutdown on errors? (y/n) Enter y to confirm this action and configure the hardware recovery level. Enter n or press [Enter] to cancel this action. Taking Ports Offline You can configure the switch to shut down one or more modules upon fault detection by specifying the shutdown option. If you configure one or more slots to shut down and the switch detects a hardware fault, all ports in all of the configured shut down slots are taken offline in response to the reported errors. (MSMs are available for debugging purposes only.) The affected module remains in the shutdown state across additional reboots or power cycles until you explicitly clear the shutdown state. If a module enters the shutdown state, the module actually reboots and the show slot command displays the state of the slot as Initialized; however, the ports are shut down and taken offline. For more information about clearing the shutdown state, see the clear sys-recovery-level command. Module Recovery Actions Table 10 describes the actions module recovery takes based on your module recovery setting. For example, if you configure a module recovery setting of reset for an I/O module, the module is reset a maximum of five times before it is taken permanently offline. From left to right, the columns display the following information: • Module Recovery Setting-This is the parameter used by the configure sys-recovery-level slot command to distinguish the module recovery behavior. • Hardware-This indicates the hardware that you may have in your switch. • Action Taken-This describes the action the hardware takes based on the module recovery setting.
