3 | Configuration Examples |
This document the operation and administration of mass storage and compact flash on the SmartEdge router and describes how to use the commands that monitor and administer the hardware components of the system. These components include controller and carrier cards, and traffic cards, services cards, and media interface cards (MICs).
The configuration tasks and commands described in this document allow you to perform other types of general system-wide monitoring and testing tasks, such as enabling power-on diagnostics and alarms.
The term controller carrier card refers to the controller functions on the circuit board within the SmartEdge 100 chassis; these functions are compatible with the XCRP3 Controller card. The term I/O carrier card refers to the traffic card functions on the circuit board; these functions are compatible with the similar functions that are implemented on all SmartEdge 400 and SmartEdge 800 traffic cards.
The term chassis refers to any SmartEdge chassis; the term SmartEdge 800 refers to any version of the SmartEdge 800 chassis; the term SmartEdge 800s refers only to the SmartEdge 800s chassis.
The term traffic card refers to either a SmartEdge 100 MIC or a traffic card installed in any other SmartEdge chassis, unless otherwise noted.
The first-generation Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) OC traffic cards follow:
The second-generation ATM OC traffic cards follow:
Each controller card has an internal compact-flash card used to store the operating system, configuration, and other system files. You can also install an optional mass-storage device in the external slot of a controller card.
To monitor and administer the internal compact-flash card and the mass-storage device in the external slot, perform one or more of the tasks described in Table 1. Enter the format, mount, and unmount commands in exec mode; enter the show commands in any mode.
Task |
Root Command |
---|---|
Mount the mass-storage device in the external slot in the controller card. |
|
Display storage information for the internal compact-flash or the mass-storage device. |
|
Prepare the mass-storage device installed in the external slot before its physical removal from the controller card. |
Caution! | ||
Risk of equipment failure. Removing the mass-storage device without
first unmounting it can permanently damage the device and cause the
kernel to crash. To reduce the risk, always enter the unmount /md
command (in exec mode) before removing the device.
|
Caution! | ||
Risk of data loss. You can lose data that is being transferred
to the mass-storage device if you enter the unmount /md command (in exec mode) before the data transfer operation is complete.
To reduce the risk, do not enter the unmount /md command
while the CF ACTIVE LED is blinking. When the operation is complete,
the LED is turned off.
|
To monitor or administer one or more devices, perform one or more of the tasks described in Table 2. Enter the service air-filter command in exec mode; enter the show commands in any mode.
Task |
Root Command |
---|---|
Update the air-filter service date in the EEPROM of the fan tray in a SmartEdge 400 chassis. |
|
Display chassis installed and configured cards and their status. |
|
Display chassis power data for the installed cards. |
|
Display information about the system hardware. |
|
Display the state of the standby controller card and verify whether it is ready to become active. |
|
Display system-, card-, port-, channel-, or subchannel-level alarms. |
The following example shows how to enable the air filter alarm and specify a three-month service interval:
