Other Management Options
You can use SNMP management applications to configure and to manage the blade switch. You also
can manage it from an SNMP-compatible workstation that is running platforms such as HP OpenView
or SunNet Manager.
See the “Accessing Help Online” section on page 24 for a list of supporting documentation.

In Case of Difficulty
If you experience difficulty, help is available in this section and on Cisco.com. This section includes
initial setup troubleshooting, how to reset the switch, how to access help online, and where to find
more information.
Troubleshooting the Initial Configuration Setup
If you have problems running the system configuration dialog:
•
Did you verify that POST ran successfully
before running the system configuration
dialog?
POST errors are usually fatal. Call Cisco
Customer Support immediately if your blade
switch fails POST.
•
Did the blade switch not power on?
The blade switch power is controlled by the
BX600 system. If the blade switch does not power
on, see the BX600 system documentation for
more information.
•
Did you lock yourself out and forget your
password?
See the “Recovering from a Lost or Forgotten
Password” section in the “Troubleshooting”
appendix of the blade switch software
configuration guide.
