Verify Blade Firmware Upgrade
•
You can also verify the blade is ready for use by checking the Blade Status LED on
the Xgig1000 chassis.
During a normal upgrade process, the Xgig 1000 Blade Status LED blinks green/off
at a once per second rate.
If the Xgig1000 blade experiences problem the Spartan FPGA will try to go to a
Recovery state, and the Blade Status LED blinks red/purple at a once per second
rate. If this process fails, the LED is a Steady red.
If the Status LED starts to blink red, you must power cycle the chassis to complete
the firmware upgrade by unplugging the power cord from the back of the chassis,
waiting 10 seconds, then plugging the cord back in. Unpredictable behavior can
result if the chassis is not properly power cycled.
When in the normal operational state the Blade LED is a neon blue.
