More info on this situation: I pulled the NMC card from the chassis, replaced it with another NMC and was able to set up my dual-arc config no problem. Put the NMC into my test chassis and it shows the red ? on slot 15 again, totally different chassis! There must be something saved on this card, I tried to reflash it, reset, reload from default etc, etc. Would erasing the flash and uploading a new image wipe this bogus info clean? This is a nearly new NMC (Hiper bundle) only about 3 months old. At 03:02 PM 9/13/2002 -0700, you wrote:
Looking a new chassis I see a red question mark on the back view of the chassis, slot 15 (typically where a 2nd arc-nic would go).
I cannot seem to clear this, when you click the slot is shows "UNKNOWN" yet there is NO card inserted there.
I'm trying to set up a 2nd arc in that slot, however when I insert the NIC/NAC set the NMC hub status goes red and I cannot get an ethernet link either.
I pull the NAC card and the hub status light goes out, I've tried several different ARC NIC/NAC card sets and they all do the same thing.
Searching 3COM KB brought up only one slightly relevant topic, however that did not solve the problem.
I'm thinking of pulling the NMC card out totally and re-inserting it, maybe that will clear this problem. My ARC's are all setup for static slot assignments with no DSA enabled either, so I should be able to pop the NMC out and back in with no ill effects.
Any other ideas?
