First configuration Cisco Nexus N9K

Hi everyone, 

 

I just received a N9K switch from the factory and I don't know how to configure it.

It starts and displays several log messages and stops.

Can you please give me any links or your knowledge when setting up an N9K switch for the first time.

Thanks for your help,

Lina

 - FYI https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/switches/datacenter/nexus9000/sw/6-x/fundamentals/configuration/guide/b_Cisco_Nexus_9000_Series_NX-OS_Fundamentals_Configuration_Guide/b_Cisco_Nexus_9000_Series_NX-OS_Fundamentals_Configuration_Guide_chapter_010....

  If , however, you think the system has a fundamental problem then post a console log (preferably simple-ascii) or else a screenshot.

- This device is experiencing hardware issues apparently. Contact TAC for
further assistance. It may need replacement (RMA). M.
