Guessing you did all of this?

 

6. Go to config mode and set the module for interactive mode:

NetIron(config)# lp boot system interactive <slot number>

7. Insert the new module (module should boot to interactive mode).

8. Load all required images for the line modules that match the current
version loaded on the chassis.

For example:

copy tftp lp <ip-addr> xmlb03100l.bin monitor <slot number>

copy tftp lp <ip-addr> xmlprm03100l.bin boot <slot number>

copy tftp lp <ip-addr> xmlp03100l.bin primary <slot number>

copy tftp lp <ip-addr> pbifsp2_03100l.bin fpga-pbif <slot number>

copy tftp lp <ip-addr> xppsp2_03100l.bin fpga-xpp <slot number>

copy tftp lp <ip-addr> xgmacsp2_03100l.bin fpga-xgmac <slot number>

9. Go to config mode and turn off the module for interactive mode:

NetIron(config)# no lp boot system interactive <slot number>

10. Exit config mode and reboot the module:

NetIron# power-off lp <slot number>

NetIron# power-on lp <slot number>

Subject: Re: [f-nsp] Line Cards not Booting on NI-MLX-4

 

This is a fascinating problem with these NI-MLXs, because really, no two
cards seem to act alike.  I'm trying to configure a second NI-MLX, and
I'm getting this response, now:

WARN: LP slot 1's application image version ( 3  3  0  6) doesn't match
that of the MP ( 4  0  0  3) - put LP in interactive mode.

Updating fpgas for the card doesn't work.
Trying to get the line card to boot from from the mp primary doesn't
work.
Pulling in and out of interactive mode doesn't work.
Updating ironware and monitor/boot image separately doesn't work
Reloading the entire image and then loading fpgas doesn't work.

Each tried several times.  Has anyone else seen these things as just
unreliable?  I can't get a simple line card to just come up. 

Help, as usual, is very much appreciated.

Chuck,

Do you have the latest fpga images in these two cards?

If not boot them in to interactive mode and download them from a tftp
server.

        Hi all--
        
        I've got a couple of NI-MLX-1Gx20-SFPs that I'm trying to bring
up on an NI-MLX-MR running 4.00ca, and I can't get the cards to boot.
They keep looping through a "CARD_STATE_BOOT" "CARD_STATE_SW_LOADED "
"CARD_STATE_SYNC_FID" loop, but won't come up active.  I can't update
the lp files unless the card comes up.  I've tried this:
        
        Config t
         lp boot system interactive [slot#]
        exit
         wr mem
        Power-off lp [slot#]
        Power-on lp [slot#]
        lp boot system mp primary [slot#]
        
        and the lp images load from the mp, but they don't seem to
stick, because the line card doesn't go active.
        
        Do I need to issue a "no lp boot system interactive" + new "wr
mem" + reload command to get it up and running?  It doesn't seem to
work.  Am I missing something obvious.
        
        Help is extremely appreciated.  I'm a little stumped right now.
        
        Thanks.
