2960x - stack cables connected while switches power on. SFP ports - status unknown

Connected 2960x uplink using SFP ports both stacks and all 4 ports worked good.
Remote tech connected last stack cable between first and last switch, in 2 different 2960x stacks of switches, while switches were  powered on. A longer stack cable was needed.  3 of 4 SFP ports did stopped communicating.
One stack SFP stayed up in switch 2, not master.  Completed reload - other SPF connected in switch 4/0/52
Second stack no connection on either SFP, remote tech power cycled switches.
After power cycle one SFP worked  in Master 1/0/52, other switches SFP ports show "unknown" when inserting SFP.
Configured port 48 on stack with issue and connected second uplink just fine.
Has anyone experienced this with the SFP's?
- GLC-T  P/N 30-1410-03
Looking for documentation on reccommending procedure for connecting stack cables while switches should be powered off or not.
Thanks,

Opened Cisco TAC case.  the following bug was found.
the two different HBRN's below require 2 different IOS and they cannot be in same stack.
 https://tools.cisco.com/bugsearch/bug/CSCur56395
switch#sh ver | s Hardware Board
Hardware Board Revision Number  : 0x05
switch#remote command 2 sh ver | s Hardware Board
Switch : 2 :------------ Hardware Board Revision Number  : 0x05

Switch : 3 : ------------ Hardware Board Revision Number  : 0x12
switch#remote command 4 sh ver | s Hardware Board
Switch : 4 :------------Hardware Board Revision Number  : 0x12
From Cisco.
Developers have recommended to upgrade the IOS version of switches with a Hardware Board revision Number below 0x10 to the release 15.0(2.0).EX5ES. this is the one attached to this email and should be applied to switch 1 and 2.
For switches with a Hardware Board revision Number above 0x10 to the release 152-2.4.E1ES, which I will send you right away. This should be done on switch 3 and 4.
Now, If you  load the engineering special, you will  need to do a full power-cycle (physically unplug the power and plug it back in for every single switch). A simple ‘reload’ will not resolve this.
The same must be done on Switch-0. For this stack you will only need to load the image attached to this email since all the Hardware Board revision Numbers are lower than 0x10.
done.

  • Router interface up connected to switch interface down - but router status = up.

    Hi all,
    My router R2 fa0/0 and fa0/1 are connected to 2 L3 switches on their fa0/2 ports respectively.
    I have shutdown all interfaces on the L3 switches. but on my router, i still see
    R2#show ip int bri
    Interface                  IP-Address      OK? Method Status                Protocol
    FastEthernet0/0            192.168.3.1     YES manual up                    down
    FastEthernet0/1            192.168.4.1     YES manual up                    down
    ======================================================================
    I would have thought if i have shutdown the switches interfaces, the respective interfaces on the Router would be down too.
    Is it not the case ?
    Regards,
    Noob

    Hi KOH SZE JIE, 
    This is normal behavior; If you have an interface UP; the line protocol may go up and down. But the Status (of the interface) will not change unless you make a configuration change. 
    Please see below a breakdown of your "show ip int brief" 
    Method
    is set to 'Manual' This means you manually configured the interface from the CLI.
    Status
    is 'UP' This means the interface is up. Basically this means you did a "no shutdown" on the port. 
    There are three modes here 
    Down - The interface is shutdown (Default on most routers) 
    Administratively down - You have gone under the interface and issued a "shutdown" 
    UP - You have issued a "No shutdown" on the interface. 
    Protocol 
    Down - This means a routing protocol is not active on the interface. This makes sense as you have shutdown the remote end(in your case your L3 switch.
    I hope this helps.
    Kind Regards,
    Liam

  • I want to give my iphone to my freind and thus I tried to Erase all contents and reset everything. I went settings-general-erase and reset. But while it was being processed, power supply went off. I have connected back to power but after 4 hours no repson

    Can anyone advise me how long does it normally take to reset while doing- settings-general-erase and reset all settings.It has already taken 4 hours and only the apple logo is being displayed yet. I am little bit worried if the operating system will not be restored.

    Use the following steps to place your device into recovery mode. If the device is already in recovery mode, you can proceed immediately to step 6.
    Did you do this?
    Disconnect the USB cable from the iPhone or iPod touch, but leave the other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
    Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the the iPhone or iPod touch to turn off.
    If you cannot turn off the device using the slider, press and hold the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons at the same time. When the device turns off, release the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons.
    While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to iPhone. When you reconnect the USB cable to iPhone, the device should power on.
    Note: If you see the screen pictured below, let the device charge for at least ten minutes to ensure the battery has some charge and then start with step 2 again.
    Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen. When this screen appears you can release the Home button:
    If necessary, open iTunes. You should see the following "recovery mode" alert:
    Use iTunes to restore the device.
    If none of these works, visit your nearest Apple Retail Store, Apple Authorized Service Provider or wireless carrier.
    Cheers!

  • Can n86 charge using usb cable connected to power ...

    I know that nokia n86 is chargeable via usb cable connected to the computer/laptop. However, I don't always have a laptop or computer with me while I'm travelling so I was wondering, is it possible to charge my n86 using a usb cable connected to a power socket using a usb adapter like those used to charge mp3 players if I didn't bring the charger with me? will it spoil the phone?
    Thanks in advance.

    should work fine as long as it is an official USB device. I have a Nokia USB charger and that is rated at 5V/1200mA and I have used a 3rd party USB charger and that has worked also. As I understand it you need something with at least 5V/500mA. I think my 3rd party one was about 600mA

  • Cable disconnects while opening port

    My cable disconnects while trying to open a port to connect to the internet. I try to query the modem in device manager diagnostics and it replies port is in use by another application. It is trying to use com 5.This happened after a software upgrade.
    Bluetooth works fine including the modem query.
    How can I find out what is using com 5 or can I change the port to a free one?

    It's in recovery mode. Plug it into your computer running iTunes and restore it.

  • My MacBook Pro 13'' shuts down randomly while connected to the power cord.

       Alright, so my Mac is shutting down while being connected to the power cord. Though, when I unplugged it, it runs just fine.
    I've read up on the other random shut downs but they seem to be different in my case. I was only surfing youtuve on Firefox, granted I had a few other tabs open but they weren't doing anything that would run the computer hot, and it shut down out of no where. The battery was full and it was still connected to my power cable. The screen went blank and the computer was completely off. I noticed that the light on the plug in wasn't on and switch the outlet that the computer was plugged into and replugged it into my computer. The light came on and after about three or so times of pressing the power on button it came back to life. Though, it stayed on the start up, white apple page and just spun. After a while it looked as if it was about to go to my password page but it shut down after gently moving the computer. The power cable light went off once again. I unplugged it and replugged it into my computer but the light would not come back on. After just removing the cord and pushing the button a few times my computer came back to life and I logged in as normal except for the fact that after it came back on the date and time was reset and several applications needed permissions. It also randomly logged me out of my Facetime account as well.
    All in all I was wondering if anyone else had a similar problem and know what's going on or if this is new. Could it be some kind of spark in the power cable from a broken wire that made my computer shut down or is it something attacking my computer?

    Please make a Genius Appointment and take it in for service.

  • 2960X 15.0(2)EX5 Stack Bug? Master Switch Ports link in Orange, no spanning Tree

    Is anyone aware of a bug in version 15.0(2)EX5 for 2960X Switches that would cause a switch in the master role to stop linking in new ports in green (and passing traffic).  I have 2 2960X-48FPD-L Switches in a stack and whichever switch I designate master will only link new connections in orange and not pass traffic.  All ports linked in show up/up and can be seen in a show cdp neighbor but won't pass any other traffic. 
    If I unplug the Stacking cables both switches become masters and ports linked in green on the previous member switch stay green, but after it switches to master any new connections plugged in only link in orange. 
    If I switch priorities and reboot the problem switches to the new master switch and the problem goes away on the member switch.
    Also, a switch in the master role does not show any spanning tree instances for ports in the orange link state. 
    Has anyone seen this issue and do you know of a solution? 
    Jim

    A quick update for those with this same problem.
    1.  15.2(3)E turned out to be very unstable causing my switch stack to randomly lockup/reboot one of the switches about once a week.
    2.  I downgraded back to 15.0(2)EX5 but found a workaround.  It turns out the switch stack with the 15.0 versions does not like the switchport voice vlan command on any of the interfaces on the master switch.  I simply removed the voice vlan configuration on the interfaces and all the switch ports linked in just fine.  I would prefer to run the phones on a voice vlan, but it still works without, just the PC's and phones are on the same vlan.

  • Switch on 3750 stack lost connectivity

    Hello
    Users on switch 6 were unable to connect to the network for a while and we saw the switch change status to 'READY' for no apparent reason in the logs (it was working fine before.) Please see attached file for the switch logs. Any ideas on what might have caused this?
    Thanks

    Hi,
    It appears that some one has disconnected and reconnected the stacking cables and that is was causing the logs.
    does "sh switch details" show all the stacking cable are connected properly?

    Hi, My iOS device (Ipad mini) only appears in iTunes while cable-connected, but does not appear after diconnect the cable. How can I Wifi sync ?
    Documents say
    Whenever the computer and the iOS device are on the same network, the iOS device will appear in iTunes, and you can sync it....
    But I can't see my iPad Mini in iTunes.
    And my  Ipad  (Settings, General, iTunes Wifi Sinc)  shows  a message :" Sync will resume when xxx(my PC with iTunes) is available "...
    Both are in the same network,
      Ipad mini is is plugged in to power
    . iTunes is open on the computer
    what can i Do ???

    Hi Skydiver119,  and tks for four interest.
    I have done exactly as you say, but it does not work for me.
    You indicated  " Navigate to the info tab and scroll down. There'll be a check box for 'sync over wifi' or something to that effect. Check that box and sync to affirm your choice."
    I navigated to Summary tab (not Info Tab) and checked "Sync with this ipad over Wi-Fi"
    I disconnect the wire,
    and my iPad disappears from my iTunes screen.
    in my iPad ->Settings -> General -> iTunes Wi-Fi Sync -> says " Sync will resume when (my PC) is available.
    So, I can not sync via wi-fi
    I appreciate if you can help me.

  • Is there a risk to have my power cable connected at all times?

    Is there a risk to have my power cable connected at all times?

    No, I keep mine connected most of the time.  However, it's bad for the battery to stay on power literally ALL the time, so don't treat your laptop as a desktop.  If you're not going places with it often, unplug it and use it on the battery for a little while at least once or twice per month.  And every now and then, use it until the battery runs empty and the machine puts itself to sleep.

  • Challenge: Spanning Tree Control Between 2 links from Switch DELL M6220 to 2 links towards 2 switches CISCO 3750 connected with an stack (behavior like one switch for redundancy)

    Hello,
    I have an Spanning tree problem when i conect  2 links from Switch DELL M6220 (there are blades to virtual machines too) to 2 links towards 2 switches CISCO 3750 connected with an stack (behavior  like one switch  for redundancy, with one IP of management)
    In dell virtual machine is Spanning tree rapid stp, and in 3750 is Spanning tree mode pvst, cisco says that this is not important, only is longer time to create the tree.
     I dont know but do you like this solutions i want to try on sunday?:
     Could Spanning tree needs to work to send one native vlan to negociate the bdpus? switchport trunk native vlan 250
    Is it better to put spanning-tree guard root in both 3750 in the ports to mitigate DELL to be root in Spanning Tree?
    Is it better to put spanning- tree port-priority in the ports of Swicht Dell?
    ¿could you help me to control the root? ¿Do you think its better another solution? thanks!

  • IPod Nano (4th Generation) switches on when connected to USB power - shows Menu & hangs (unresponsive to click wheel) - deems off after 5-sec - Switches off after disconnecting from USB Power - syncs with iTunes - Tried 5R's - Problem still persists

    1. The iPod Nano (4th Generation - 8GB) switches on, only when connected to USB power by showing apple logo and displays Menu options thereafter..
    2. However, I can not access Menu as it is unresponsive to click wheel. As a result it is inaccessible to any further use, 
    3. NOTE: it displays "Battery Fully charged" icon on the screen without any "Lock" icon.
    4. After  5-sec to 10-secs the screen deems off.. i.e. goes to sleep mode.. And thereafter would probably remain like that (sleeeping) for eternity!!!!
    5. It Switches off after WITHOUT DISPLAYING any Apple Logo immediately after disconnecting from USB Power.
    6. In other words, it can be switched on only through USB power in spite of battery being fully charged.
    7. Interestingly, it syncs with iTunes. It is recognised in iTunes (Latest version 11+).. Displays on screen all commands Like.. syncronising, connecting, connected,
    8. Allows to add Music, videos like a normal ipod & displays all status information in iTunes.
    9. Read Trobleshooting & Tried all 5R's. Registered, Resetted, updated & Restored to iOS 1.0.2
    10. It is now displaying to select Language in place of Menu options, with no access through click wheel, centre button whatsoever... Problem still persists
    KINDLY GUIDE ME THE SOLUTION. APPRECIATE YOUR RESPONSE in advance...

  • Failed while creating virtual Ethernet switch. Failed to connect Ethernet switch port

    Hello Folks
    I am completely stuck with the configuration of my virtual networks. I have one logical switch left to add to one of my Hyper-V 2012 R2 hosts when I started getting the error below when I try to add logical switches to either Hyper-V Host. I have been using
    the document. 'Hybrid Cloud with NVGRE (Cloud OS)' to implement the virtual networking. Basically using the exact configuration that is in the document. I have added the PA Logical Network and the Network adapters and added the logical switch for it to my
    hyper-v 2012 R2 host and everything was fine. I am now trying to add my ISCSI Logical Switch to the host and this is the error I get. My other Hyper-V host I get this error for any logical switch I am trying to add. Can someone help me with this error. I haven't
    been able to find any information about it.
    Also a some quick info on tracing an error like this so I can figure out what is causing it.
    Thsi is my configuration so far
    So as far as I know everything is peachy untill the error below. Dead stop now

    notice your GUID?  you may want to consider ensuring that is the same GUID associated in your database.  Sometimes during data corruption theres a smidge of a chance your sql database kind of either pulls old guids esp if this was reverted to snapshot
    without it being powered off etc.  
    I would try that first.  then i would consider if you get to configure that with your current liscense associated with the host.  I would need way more info to help any further
