Unable to Load NAM Module - showing PwrDown

[neiljbooth]

I have a NAM Module installed in a Cat 6509 and I am unable to bring it online.

The Show Mod command shows that the module is in the PwrDown status.

If I reset the module by reseating it in the chassis I get a logg message saying:

%C6KPWR-SP-4-DISABLED: power to module in slot xx set to off (Module Failed SCP dnld).

Does this mean that the module has a fault or is there a way to recover?

PS - I have tried reloading the whole switch and it makes no difference.

Thanks

If this is hybrid did you try the "set module power up " command ?

Hi Glen,

The 6500 is running IOS, do you know if there is an equivalent command?

[glen.grant]

You can try hw-module module X reset . X is your module number . I doubt there is a problem with the nam just sounds like the mod is powered down.

I tried this and it didn't make any difference.

Anybody have any other ideas?

Hi,

Can you verify if there is enough power to support the module? Just a guess.

Check your catos version and check to see the minimal required code to run NAM module. It probably powered down because the SUP did not recognized it.
