Reset module command in cisco -6509

saurabhba · ‎04-23-2009

Hi Team,

We need to reset/reload one of the module of our core switch i.e.WS-C6509-E. Moreover, we have tried the command reset 4 (module no.) but it's not working. Please provide us the command to reset the module.

Hello Saurabh,

it should be

hw-module module 4 reset

given in SWitch# privileged mode

Switch#hw-module module 4 ?

boot Specify boot options for the module through Power Management Bus control register

reset Reset specified component

simulate Simulate options for the module

some specific service modules like CSM or other can require different approach

This is good for normal linecards

Hope to help

Giuseppe

Hi Giuseppe,

I have tried reseting one of the module of WS-C6509-E. I could not complete the process because of below error.

% module 3 is operationally Off (Module Reset due to exception or user request)

Go to config mode and enter "power enable module {Module Number}" and exit config mode.

Before the system has time to detect the error and turn power back off, you will be able to do the reset. Most likely it will solve nothing, but you can still do it.
