APPENDIXA
Troubleshooting
NoteThe information in this chapter applies to all Catalyst 6500 series switches unless otherwise noted.
This chapter describes how to troubleshoot the Catalyst 6500 series switch hardware installation and 
contains these sections:
Getting Started, page A-1
Solving Problems at the System Component Level, page A-2
Identifying Startup Problems, page A-3
Troubleshooting the Power Supply, page A-4
Troubleshooting the Fan Assembly, page A-5
Troubleshooting Modules, page A-5
Contacting Customer Service, page A-7
If your system has problems, use the information in this chapter to help isolate the cause. Problems with 
the initial startup are often caused by a switching module that has become dislodged from the backplane 
or a power supply that has been disconnected from the power cord connector. Although temperature 
conditions above the maximum acceptable level rarely occur at initial startup, you might encounter these 
conditions during extended operation. Long-term monitoring functions also include independent 
reporting of DC-output voltage problems.
NoteThis chapter covers only the chassis component hardware aspects of troubleshooting. For 
module-specific information, refer to the Catalyst 6500 Series Switch Module Installation Guide.
Getting Started
When the initial system startup is complete, verify the following:
Power supplies are supplying power to the system. 
The system fan assembly is operating. 
						

							A-2
Catalyst 6500 Series Switches Installation Guide
OL-5781-08
Appendix A      Troubleshooting
  Solving Problems at the System Component Level
System software boots successfully.
The supervisor engine and all switching modules are installed properly in their slots, and each was 
initialized without problems.
If one or more of the above conditions are not met, use the procedures in this chapter to isolate and, if 
possible, resolve the problem. If all of the above conditions are met, and the hardware installation is 
complete, refer to these publications to troubleshoot the software: Catalyst 6500 Series Switch Software 
Configuration Guide, the Catalyst 6500 Series Switch Cisco IOS Software Configuration Guide, the 
Catalyst 6500 Series Switch Command Reference, or the Catalyst 6500 Series Switch Cisco IOS 
Command Reference. Also, refer to your software release notes for hardware support information and 
software caveats. 
Solving Problems at the System Component Level
The key to success when troubleshooting the system is to isolate the problem to a specific system 
component. The first step is to compare what the system is doing to what it should be doing. Because a 
startup problem can usually be attributed to a single component, it is more efficient to isolate the problem 
to a subsystem rather than troubleshoot each separate component in the system.
The switch consists of these subsystems:
Power supply—Includes the power supplies and power supply fans.
Fan assembly—The chassis fan assembly should operate whenever system power is on. You should 
see the FAN LED turn green and hear the fan assembly operating. A red FAN LED indicates that 
one or more fans in the fan assembly is not operating. You should immediately contact a customer 
service representative if the fan assembly is not functioning properly. (See the “Contacting 
Customer Service” section on page A-7.) There are no installation adjustments that you can make if 
the fan assembly does not function properly at initial startup.
Supervisor engine—The supervisor engine contains the system operating software, so check your 
supervisor engine if you have trouble with the system software. Status LEDs on the supervisor 
engine indicate whether or not the supervisor engine is able to initialize the switching module.
If you have a redundant supervisor engine, refer to the Catalyst 6500 Series Switch Software 
Configuration Guide or the Catalyst 6500 Series Switch Cisco IOS Software Configuration Guide 
publications for descriptions of how the redundant supervisor engine comes online and how the 
software images are handled.
Switching modules—Status LEDs on each switching module indicate if the module has been 
initialized by the supervisor engine. A switching module that is partially installed in the backplane 
can cause the system to halt.

Appendix A      Troubleshooting
  Identifying Startup Problems
Identifying Startup Problems
LEDs indicate all system states in the startup sequence. By checking the LEDs, you can determine when 
and where the system failed in the startup sequence.
To identify startup problems, follow these steps:
Step 1Turn on the power supplies. You should immediately hear the system fan assembly begin to operate. 
If you do not hear the fans operating, see the “Troubleshooting the Power Supply” section on 
page A-4. 
If you determine that the power supplies are functioning normally and that the fan assembly is faulty, 
contact a customer service representative. 
If the system fan assembly does not function properly at initial startup, there are no installation 
adjustments that you can make. To replace the fan assembly, see the “Removing and Installing the 
Fan Tray” section on page 1-82.
Step 2Verify that the LEDs on the supervisor engine light as follows:
The STATUS LED should flash orange once and stay orange during diagnostic boot tests. It turns 
green when the module is operational (online). If the system software is unable to start up, the 
STATUS LED stays orange.
The SYSTEM LED should turn green, indicating that all chassis environmental monitors are 
reporting that the system is OK. If one or more environmental monitor reports a problem, the 
SYSTEM LED is orange or red.
The ACTIVE LED should turn green, indicating that the supervisor engine is operational and active. 
If the supervisor engine is in standby mode, the ACTIVE LED is orange.
Each LINK LED should flash orange once and stay orange during diagnostic boot tests, and turn 
green when the module is operational (online). If no signal is detected, the LINK LED turns off. The 
LINK LED blinks orange if the port is bad. 
If any LEDs on the supervisor engine front panel are red or orange, see the “Troubleshooting Modules” 
section on page A-5.
If you have a redundant supervisor engine, refer to the Catalyst 6500 Series Switch Software 
Configuration Guide or the Catalyst 6500 Series Switch Cisco IOS Software Configuration Guide 
publications for descriptions of how the redundant supervisor engine comes online and how the software 
images are handled.
For a complete description of the supervisor engine LEDs, refer to the Catalyst 6500 Series Switch 
Module Installation Guide.
Step 3Verify that the STATUS LEDs on the supervisor engine and on each switching module are green when 
the supervisor engine completes initialization. 
The STATUS LED indicates that the supervisor engine or switching modules are receiving power, have 
been recognized by the supervisor engine, and contain a valid flash code version. This LED does not 
indicate the state of the individual interfaces on the switching modules. If a STATUS LED is red or 
orange, see the “Troubleshooting Modules” section on page A-5.
Step 4If the startup information and system banner do not display at startup, refer to the Catalyst 6500 Series 
Switch Module Installation Guide to verify that the terminal is set correctly and that it is connected 
properly to the supervisor engine console port.

  Troubleshooting the Power Supply
Troubleshooting the Power Supply
If the INPUT OK LED does not light after you turn on the power switch, follow these steps to isolate a 
power subsystem problem:
Step 1Verify that the INPUT OK LED on the power supply is green.
If the INPUT OK LED is green, the AC or DC source is good and the power supply is functional.
If the INPUT OK LED is off, first ensure that the power supply is flush with the back of the chassis. 
Turn off the power switch, tighten the captive installation screw(s), and then turn on the power 
switch.
If the INPUT OK LED remains off, there might be a problem with the AC source, the DC source, or 
the power cable.
Turn off the power to the switch, connect the power cord to another power source if one is available, 
and turn on the power.
If the INPUT OK LED is green, the problem is the first power source.
If the INPUT OK LED fails to light after you connect the power supply to a new power source, 
replace the power cord, and turn on the switch.
If the INPUT OK LED then goes on, return the first power cord for replacement.
If this unit has more than one power cord, repeat Step 1 for each power supply.
If the INPUT OK LED still fails to light when the switch is connected to a different power source with 
a new power cord, the power supply is probably faulty.
If a second power supply is available, install it in the second power supply bay, and contact a customer 
service representative for further instructions.
Step 2If you have a second (redundant) power supply, repeat Step 1 for this power supply.
If you are unable to resolve the problem or if you determine that either a power supply or backplane 
connector is faulty, see the “Contacting Customer Service” section on page A-7.
