Commands for Status Monitoring and Statistics
ExtremeWare XOS 11.5 supports only the Summit X450 family of switches and the BlackDiamond 8800 series switch.
ExtremeWare XOS 11.5 Command Reference Guide
610
configure sys-recovery-level slot
configure sys-recovery-level slot <slot_number> [none | reset | shutdown]
Description
Configures a recovery option for instances where an exception occurs on the specified MSM or I/O
module.
Syntax Description
Default
The default setting is
reset
.
Usage Guidelines
Use this command for system auto-recovery upon detection of hardware problems. You can configure
the MSMs or I/O modules installed in a modular switch to take no action, automatically reset,
shutdown, or if dual MSMs are installed, failover to the other MSM, if the switch detects a faulty MSM
or I/O module. This enhanced level of recovery detects faults in the ASICs as well as packet buses.
You must specify one of the following parameters for the system to respond to MSM or I/O module
failures:
●
none
—Configures the MSM or I/O module to maintain its current state regardless of the detected
fault. The offending MSM or I/O module is not reset. ExtremeWare XOS logs fault and error
messages to the syslog and notifies you that the errors are ignored. This does not guarantee that the
module remains operational; however, the switch does not reboot the module.
●
reset
—Configures the offending MSM or I/O module to reset upon fault detection. ExtremeWare
XOS logs fault, error, system reset, and system reboot messages to the syslog.
●
shutdown
—Configures the switch to shut down all slots/modules configured for shutdown upon
fault detection. On the modules configured for shutdown, all ports in the slot are taken offline in
slot_number
Specifies the slot of the MSM or I/O module.
• A and B—Indicate an MSM
• 1 through 10—Indicate an I/O module
none
Configures the MSM or I/O module to maintain its current state regardless of
the detected hardware fault. The offending MSM or I/O module is not reset.
For more information about the states of an MSM or I/O module see the
show
slot
command.
reset
Configures the offending MSM or I/O module to reset upon a hardware fault
detection. For more detailed information, see the
“Usage Guidelines”
described
below.
shutdown
Configures the switch to shut down all slots/modules configured for shutdown
upon fault detection. On the modules configured for shutdown, all ports in the
slot are taken offline in response to the reported errors; however, the MSMs
remain operational for debugging purposes only. ExtremeWare XOS logs fault,
error, system reset, system reboot, and system shutdown messages to the
syslog.
