Viewing Cards on a Chassis

To view the cards on your chassis, follow these steps:

---

Step 1 Expand Chassis in the Tree frame.

Step 2 Select the Cards branch.

A table that includes all cards on the chassis appears in the View frame. Table 3-1 describes the fields in the Cards table.

Table 3-1 Cards Table Field Descriptions 

Field	Description
Slot	Number of the chassis slot in which the card resides.
Type	Type of the card.
Current Status	Displays up if the card can currently run traffic; otherwise, displays down.
Operational State	Displays the general condition of the interface card. The general condition may appear as any of the following: •unknown •normal •bootFailed •tooHot •booting •checkingBootImage •wrongBootImage •rebooting •standby •recoveryImage A condition of unknown indicates an unsupported interface card. To address this condition, replace the card with a supported card. The operational state of a card must appear as normal for the current status of the card to appear as up. A wrong-image condition indicates that the active system image on the interface card does not match the active system image on the controller. All cards must run the same active system image as the controller card. A bootFailed condition indicates that the active system image on the card was incompletely or incorrectly loaded. If the other interface cards come up successfully, reset the individual card. Otherwise, reboot your entire device. When your card overheats, the tooHot condition appears in the show card command output. Expand Chassis and select the Fans branch to see if your fans have failed. The booting condition indicates that the card has not finished loading the necessary image data for the internal configuration.
Boot Stage	Boot Stage appears as one of the following: •recovery •ipl •ppcboot •fpga •pic •ib •rootfs •kernel •exe •done
Boot Status	Boot Status may appear as any of the following: •upgrading •success •failed •badVersion •badCrc •memoryError •outOfSpace •programmingError •hardwareError •fileNotFound •inProgress

Step 3 (Optional) Click Refresh to update the attributes in the display.
