Repair Information
• Reset the Ethernet local area network (LAN) interface, causing the connection to
the HAFM server to drop momentarily until the connection automatically
recovers.
• Automatically enable changes to an active zone configuration.
• Keep all configured fabric logins, name server registrations, and operating
parameters intact.
• Automatically set the switch online. The blocked state of each Fibre Channel port
remains intact.
NOTE: A switch reset or IPL should be performed only if a CTP card failure is indicated. Do not
reset or IPL the switch unless directed to do so by a procedural step or the next level of support.
Reset the Switch
Resetting the switch with the IML button causes the switch to perform an initial
program load (IML) that takes approximately 30 seconds.
To reset the switch:
1. At the switch front panel, press and hold the IML button for approximately three
seconds.
2. During the reset, the switch-to-HAFM server Ethernet link drops momentarily and
the following occurs at the product manager application:
— As the network connection drops, the Status table turns yellow, the Status
field displays No Link, and the State field displays a reason message.
— The alert panel at the bottom of the navigation control panel displays a grey
square, indicating switch status is unknown.
— Illustrated FRUs (SFPs, fans, and power supplies) in the Hardware View
disappear, and appear again as the connection is re-established.
IPL the Switch
To IPL the switch:
1. At the HAFM server, open the HAFM application. The Product View displays.
2. Select the icon representing the switch to be IPled. The Hardware View for the
selected switch displays.
3. At the navigation control panel, select IPL from the Maintenance menu. The
Information dialog box displays.
