Cisco 3850 Dual Power Supply - One No Response

Hey Guys,
I am getting multiple switches on my network showing "power supply failure" from Solarwinds.
I am running Cisco 3850s running v 03.02.03.SE cat3k_caa-universalk9 iOS, and they all have dual power supplies. When i do the sh env power, I get this output.
SWITCH1#sh env power
SW  PID                             Serial#     Status               Sys Pwr  PoE Pwr  Watts
1A  PWR-C1-715WAC       xxxx           OK                 Good     Good           715
1B  PWR-C1-715WAC       xxxx         No Response   Good     Good           715
SWITCH2#sh env power
SW  PID                              Serial#     Status           Sys Pwr    PoE Pwr     Watts
1A  PWR-C1-715WAC       xxxx           OK                   Good     Good          715
1B  PWR-C1-715WAC       xxxx         No Response     Good     Good          715
When I physically go down to look at the switches, they have green lights, so they are receiving power, but I keep getting the PSU failure alerts.
Do you think it is an iOS issue, and should I upgrade? Or has anyone else seen this?

Hi,
I think below Bug could match with your issue.
"power supply B is not responding" reoccurring on Catalyst switches

And we can see workaround of this issue is HW workaround.
Thanks,

  • Cisco 3850 Redundant Power Supply Reporting Issue

    We have deployed several Cisco 3850's. Several are showing the following symptom
    ont2-tc3-es01#sh env power
    SW  PID                 Serial#     Status           Sys Pwr  PoE Pwr  Watts
    1A  PWR-C1-715WAC       DCB1702G0QU  OK              Good     Good     715
    1B  PWR-C1-715WAC       DCB1702G0G6  No Response     Good     Good     715
    Every single switch at this particular location has the same status on the B power supply. The problem was there on the previous code level (3.2.2) and we recently upgraded to 3.3.5 to resolve some SNMP bugs on the switches we also expected the latest Assurewave version to fix this issue also. So couple questions:
    1. Anyone else seeing this?
    2. Anyone found a fix for it?
                   Thanks!
                              Marty

    Hi Zabeel,
                       I did talk with TAC - per the engineer there are two bugs that cause the issue and one was fixed in 3.3.5 - so we upgraded all our 3850's to that code level. Unfortunately for us, that still didn't fix the issue. TAC suggested that it may be fixed in rev 3.7.0, but that has not officially been confirmed by Cisco's developers.
             We're waiting for the official "fix" before going through another round of switch upgrades.
            TAC did suggest reseating the power supply if you still have the issue after the upgrade to 3.3.5 - but that's not really an option for me since my switches are geographically spread out.

  • Does "dual power supply" mean "redundant power supply"?

    Does Cisco7301 "dual power supply" mean "redundant power supply"?
    If unplug one power socket, 7301 continues operating?

    On a 7301, I believe it does act as a redundant power supply, and this is often true for many Cisco devices with dual power supplies, but there can be exceptions.  For example, on the 6500 chassis, you might use dual power supplies in combined mode, i.e. failure of a power supply would leave the chassis short of necessary power.  The 3560X/3750X might also have insufficient power if a power supply fails when running on two (this issue may arise when using PoE).

  • Power consumption with dual power supply

    Hi,
    I need to know how dual power supply works, I mean, when you have two power supplies in a router if both of them are working at the same time, or if one of them is working while the other one only begin to work when the first one stops.
    And if both of them are working at the same time, what is the power consumption, the same as if only one of them was working?
    Thanks

    The implementation details can potentially differ per product category but usually the following is applicable:
    The product provides configurable power redundancy modes and choosing a mode dictates whether load will be shared across supplies or whether a particular supply will be dedicated for redundancy.
    If both (or more) supplies are working at the same time then both share the power load.
    The actual power consumption depends on the power required to run the installed components and is the same whether you use power supplies in redundant or power sharing mode.

  • 3750X, Dual Power Supply, 1 in 110V and 1 in 208V

    I have a Cisco WS-C3750X-12S swith with dual C3KX-PWR-350WAC power supplies that are both currently connected to 110V PDUs.  We are being forced to migrate over to new 208V PDUs and I would like to know if it is possible to run this switch with one power supply connected to a 110V feed and the other power supply connected to a 208V feed?
    I assume this will work as both power supplies are auto sensing and are rated for any input between 110V - 240V.  Would there be any potential issues with this configuration?
    This will only be needed for one week while the second 208V PDU is connected.  I will need to migrate one PS to 208V, wait for the second PDU to be installed in my rack, and then move the second PS to 208V.
    I was hoping to be able to migrate without having to reboot the switch as this would require a maintenance window and downtime for an important connection.
    Thank you.

    Hello,
    That should be fine, I've seen customers actually run this in production for quite some time.  You should be able to migrate this without downtime as long as you are not running a large number of POE devices that are reliant on XX amount of power at one time.

  • CiscoWorks how many switches in stack + dual Power supply usage

    Hi,
    Please tell me that is it possible to see in CiscoWorks that device with dual power supplies is using both or just one. e.g 6500
    Also I need to count the total number of physical switches in the company but I am only able to generate a inventory report that only shows logical devices, but it do not show if the switch is stack then how many physical switches are in stack.
    Is it also possible to count the total number of physical devices in the company instead of just logical devices.
    I am using the
    LMS: 1.2.0
    RME: 4.3.0
    CS:    3.3.0
    CM:   5.2.1
    DFM: 3.2.0
    Thanks.

    Thanks for reply.
    In the detailed device view I am able to see that switch has 2 power supply, but but unable to see that its using either only one or both. But I understand your point that if its not visible here then its not possible.
    Explainantion of my second query: My company want to know that how many physical switches has been installed. We manage over 2500 logical switches in the company and management want to have a report showing that how many total physical switches exist.
    Is it possible to generate a report which shows that each logical switch contains how many physical swithes and/ or total number of physical switches in the company. 
    e.g MLS001 (logical switch) contains sw1 (physical switch), sw2 (physical switch), sw3 (physical switch), sw4 (physical switch)
         MLS002 (logical switch) contains sw1 (physical switch), sw2 (physical switch)
    CiscoWorks generate a report shows that 6 physical switches exist.
    Please reply ASAP. Thanks

    Check the PS at the back, is there a light?  If there's no light, then you need to RMA the PS as it could be faulty.

  • Scxi 1520 dual power supply

    Greetings!
    I am using an SCXI 1520 right now. I wish to get a dual voltage power supply out of it (+/-) 5V. I know that what I get is just 0-10V. But is there a trick to do this. Thank you very much!
    -Ham

    Hello,
    There is no way to get +/- 10 V from the SCXI-1520. I recommend either using an external power supply, or the unused AO channels on your DAQ device to provide these voltages. To make use of the unused AO channels, you can either use a SCXI-1180 Feedthrough panel with a SCXI-1302 terminal block, or a 50-pin ribbon cable connected to a CB-50. Both of these simply give you access to the unused pins on the DAQ device (AI 1..N, AO 0..N, CTR, etc...).
    For more information on the SCXI-1180, see:
    http://sine.ni.com/apps/we/nioc.vp?cid=1645〈=US
    For the CB-50, see:

    Let me know if you have further questions.

    FastEddie - PSU's---2 x 12v---The Dual Rail Myth 
    From Power Suppy Requirements & Selection There are a number of other threads/debates re single/Dual Rail.
    Re: OCZ 520W v Dual Rail - Comparison
    Takes 2 Power supplies - single rail OCZ 520 with single 12v rail with 33A,
    compared to equiavalent dual rail 12v1=17A 12v2=17A.
    Assuming no power switching between 12v1 & 12v2 the Dual rail is borderline with 81% utilisation on 12v2 compared with the comfortable
    61% utilisation on a single rail.
    There are a few exceptions which give some flexability tagan u22 - can be run it 2 modes, 1 12v@30a or 2 12v@14a each. but otherwise I think most AMD64 users will do better with single rail.
    luck :D

  • Power Supply blows a fuse, Ext Soundcard power outages, Time Machine.

    Power Supply blows a fuse, Ext Soundcard momentary power outages. Time Machine won't backup.
    Ok here's my setup
    Mac Book Pro 13" APRIL 2011 latest firmware. 8GB RAM. Surge Protected mains connection..
    M-AUDIO FIREWIRE SOUNDCARD AUDIOPHILE most recent drivers and powered by the MacBooks Firewire Out using a NEET Pro Lead,
    The M-Audio has 2 x Firewire Ports and I take one  to a 2TB 7800rpm Iomega iMedia Drive which daisy chains to a 1TB FireWire Seagate HardDrive and yes both are Pre Powered and formatted for Time Machines exclusive use.
    The M-Audio Firewire module can be pre powered but isn't for this reason, the FireWire Out from the Mac IS pre powered, and I'm using a good quality NEET lead that powers the Audiophile ok over the last few months. I have been warned by the manual if I add a power supply to a pre powered firewire chain I could damage equipment, I'm now running the the screen as low as possible and the backlit keys off to minimise power drain, I also use an Acer 24" Monitor with a NEET DV mini port to HDMI adaptor and it's been working great but this must be more power drain on the power supply, One of the USB ports goes to an Native Instruments Maschine Sampler Module, the other goes to a Pre Powered 4 Port USB Hub and that has been fine, it has 1 Axiom 25 USB Midi Keyboard, 2 Pre Powered Hard Discs 1 Portable USB Drive. Now the problems started with Time Machine it can't backup and I get Hard Disk Unsafe Disconnects and Failed Time Machine Backups and Now my Soundcard does the same in that it momentarily disconnects and reconnects in a second, in Settings under ENERGY SETTINGS I've set hard drives to Never Shut Down, and the Screen also, it's been more frequent, then a fuse blows in the Power Supply without tripping up my Surge Protector Socket pfft! just great, well it is only a 3AMP Fuse in the Plug Socket but it saved my MacBook!, ok checks Mains, yes it's old, and I've started using the Central Heating alot now and when it turns on it could be causing a power surge, same with the FridgeFreezer. Things i've tried, on the Seagate pre powered FireWire Hardisc I have switched the Firewire lead to its second FW port, I got no errors with Time Machine this time, not 100% it's done yet, Soundcard resets in Logic 9 ****, I do have 2 lower quality Firewire Leads that go from the Soundcard to the 2 harddrives will need upgrading ASAP, thats next, I recon its time to upgrade the Soundcard as well for a Focusrite or similar as all my M-Audio Soundcards would literaly loose there minds on PCs and Macs, flakey drivers would just drop out of the Audiophole Firewire Card, more than I care to mention, so if that happens it could explain why the Time Machine drive drops out also, hmmm, and there was me thinking if I used a Mac it would all be ok. wrong. Would apreciate any qualified input, thanks.

    Ok some updates I see, 6 in total including a firmware and security upgrades, also two Native Instruments Updates, Reaktor and Kontakt. I will be testing, this. Before the Updates I managed to peak the CPU load in Logic 9 and was only using 14 tracks, will need to bounce the Synth Plugs and drum tracks and run all the source samples from the Local internal drive a Hitachi 5400rpm drive hmmm :/ will experiment, anyway my Iomega FW drive froze up the Iomega Mac Companion is the correct name for it 2TB 7800rpm but it met it's match or was is the processor? Still sussing it all out. Firewire leads upgrade in effect. testing.. bleep. .

  • Cisco Power Supply error

    What does out of regulation limits means ?
    1 red "OUTPUT FAIL," normally is off but illuminates when power supply outputs are out of regulation limits
    Thanks
    Rosa

    Hi,
    Seet this:
    LED
    Meaning
    INPUT OK
    AC-input power supplies:
    •Green—Source AC voltage is OK. (Input voltage is 85 VAC or greater.)
    •Off—Source AC voltage falls below 70 VAC, is not present, or the PEM is turned off.
    DC-input power supplies:
    •Green—Source DC voltage is OK. (-40.5 VDC or greater.)
    •Off—Source DC voltage falls below -33 VDC or is not present at the PEM.
    FAN OK
    Green—Power supply fan is operating properly.
    Off—Power supply fan failure is detected.
    OUTPUT FAIL
    Red—Problem with one or more of the DC-output voltages of the power supply is detected.
    Off—DC-output voltages within acceptable margins.
    Note For proper operation of the OUTPUT FAIL LED, systems with single power supplies must be configured with a minimum of one fan tray and one supervisor engine. Systems with dual power supplies must have a minimum configuration of one fan tray, one supervisor engine, and one additional module. Failure to meet these minimum configuration requirements can cause a false power supply output fail signal.
    This is for 6500 switches but apply to almost all models.

  • G5 Dual 2.5 Power Supply Replacement?

    Hi, I tried searching for this, but there seems to be no information available for my particular model. Last week, I had the dreaded power supply failure for an out of warranty, June 2004 G5 Dual 2.5 Ghz. I brought in to a repair shop, and they ordered a new power supply for it. But I was told today that the they can't seem to locate any detailed documentation on this particular computer. My own searches have turned up the same (although plenty of documentation on other, different G5's).
    As it stands, no one can seem to figure out how to access the power supply, which seems to be placed between the "floor" of the interior, and the actual bottom of the case. Does anyone know where to find the right instructions/documentation, or know themselves how to pull this sucker apart? I'd be eternally grateful for any help.

    Hi. Reference material and anything detailed on the G5 is a bit scarce. The G5 Service Source is here.
    The manual does not show liquid cooling. Some more info here - but again, not liquid-cooled
    http://www.sharpeningbeneath.com/g5guide/
    Some photos here
    http://homepage.mac.com/thunderaudio/PhotoAlbum1.html
    As you can see it's quite an undertaking - the risk of damaging something much more expensive than the PSU is high. Which is why, I guess, people let the shop have the problem of fixing anything they break...
