Unable to boot Cisco Ironport C160, beeps and flashing amber light

At first RAID staus was showing as degraded. I tried to rebuild the RAID  but hat failed. I was able to logon and update to version 8.0 after the RAID rebuild failed.
Now when I try to boot the ironport it beeps twice and keeps on repeating every 10 seconds or so, and there is also a flashing amber light at the back and front of the device.
Suspecting that there was a problem with the hard drives i tried to restore a recent image of the Ironport that I had, hoping that the RAID would rebuild, But that is not the case. The Ironport is still unable to boot and is beeping twice as well as the flashing amber light.
Does anyone know if there is anyhting that I can do to rectify this problem?
Thanks in advance         

Amber light usually means hardware issue. You should contact TAC.
It is not clear what you did to rebuild the RAID but you should try nothing before discussing with TAC. Any attempt to do reimage could break the box for good.
At the moment you have access to the box, enable remote access and call TAC.
There is an account, named enablediag  which can be used for troubleshooting. It has the option to open remote access so TAC can assist further. The password is the same as your admin account.
I hope this helps.

  • Time Capsule Undiscoverable and flashing amber lights?

    Hi,
    I have had my time capsule connected via ethernet to a wireless router on an unsecured wifi network.
    Yesterday all of a sudden the time capsule became undiscoverable in the middle of a backup and the amber light is flashing and airport utility cant find it.
    Can anybody help?

    Last resort is a factory default reset.
    Power down the Time Capsule for 30 minutes
    Hold in the reset button and keep holding it in while you plug the power back in on the Time Capsule
    Keep holding the reset button until the amber light blinks more quickly, hold a few more seconds and then release
    Try again. If you try this a few times and still cannot connect, you'll need to take the TC in to the Apple store to have them take a look.

  • Airport express and flashing amber light

    Decided to go wireless to take advantage of new printer with wireless capablities. ibook bought in 01 did not have airport card, so got refurb airport card (802.11g). Bought Airport express at local shop (AX?). Put in Airport card by self without problem (impressed wife). Set up AX with Airport assistant. Have DSL modem through earthlink (Netopia). First window; set up new base station. Check. Second window; identify new wireless network. Check. Third window; Choice between connection with a home router or direct connection between internet and base station with a DSL modem. Naturally, initially choose DSL modem. Next window security; 128 WEP (more compatible with older wireless) or WPA2 ( more secure). Go with WPA2. Next windows PPoE account name/passwords, etc. Set up complete. Result: Can not connect to internet. Error window: can't find server. Airport icon in menu bar displaying "looking for PPoE host" Of note, the light on the AX is solid green. Reset the AX. Try again using the 128 WEP security with same result. Reset the AX. Try again using the home router choice instead of DSL modem with WPA2 security. Same result. Reset the AX. Try again with home router choice and 128 WEP security. Result: Can connect to internet, but can not connect with printer and light on AX is now flashing amber! Wife not impressed. Why doesn't the DSL modem choice work since that is what I have and what does "looking for PPPoE host" mean? Do I have the PPPoE account name/password wrong. Why does the AX light flash amber if I am connected to the internet? Am I still secure? Why can I not print if I am indeed connected to the wireless network (the printer is on, on the printer list, etc)? Thoughts welcomed prior to spending the bucks to talk to a support tech.

    I need to verify which AirPort card (the original or the Extreme) you installed in your iBook. The 2001 iBook models were AirPort ready, meaning they can only work with the original AirPort card. (ref: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=107908)
    or WPA2 ( more secure). Go with WPA2
    WPA2 would be the best choice, except if you installed the original AirPort card which doesn't support WPA2. However, it will work with WPA if it meets certain requirements.
    Airport icon in menu bar displaying "looking for PPoE host"
    When using DSL service that requires PPPoE for connectivity and a wireless router, the router is the only device required to be set up for PPPoE access. All wireless Mac computers connecting to the router need to be setup for DHCP access, as follows:
    System Preferences > Network > Show > Network Port Configurations
    - Verify that an AirPort option exists. If it does not, click "New" to create one. - Verify that AirPort is "On" (checked)
    - Verify that AirPort is at the top of the list. If it isn't, you can drag it to the top.
    Systems Preferences > Network > Show > AirPort
    AirPort tab
    - By default, join: Automatic
    TCP/IP tab
    - Configure IPv4: Using DHCP
    - Configure IPv6: Automatically or Off
    Proxies tab
    - Configure Proxies: Manually
    - Select a proxy server to configure: <All proxies should be unchecked unless you specifically require a proxy for Internet access.>
    - Exclude simple hostnames (unchecked)
    - Bypass proxy settings for these Hosts & Domains: <leave blank>
    - Use Passive FTP Mode (PASV) (checked)

  • Wont boot: I get beeps and flashing sleep light

    The PB-T boots to a beeping noise and then the sleep light flashes once: long, then 3 short flashes.
    I reseated the RAM and swapped RAM, to no avail.
    Wont boot from anything even install disks. Did the PRAM too (which never does anything). Tried the reset switch on the back too. Nothing.
    Ideas? I remember the beeps are usually related to RAM. no?
    Steve

    Hi Steve,
    It sounds like you have no good RAM banks, which basically means a new/replacement LB. May not be cost-effective for an older TiBook to replace the LB.

  • Powerbook beeps and flashes on startup the NOTHING!

    Hi there,
    My powerbook froze last night and I turned it off by holding down the power button. I then left it for a few minutes and turned it back on. The machine made the usual noise when once i pressed the power but then made a noise of 3 beeps and the white light at the front flashed about 4 times.
    The display is black and nothing else happens. Just a continuing flashin light on the front.
    Can anyone help?

    Also, if swapping the two RAM sticks does let you boot, check "About this Mac" on the Apple menu afterwards to make sure your Mac is still seeing all the RAM-- if it's only seeing half, you might have the dreaded lower memory slot failure.

  • Airport Express will not stop flashing amber light; Reset multiple times; Works for a second with green light and then resumes flashing amber

    I bought an Airport Express to extend my Airport Extreme about a month ago. It worked great until 2 weeks ago it started flashing amber. I reset it and set it up via airport utility and it would work for a little while, with great connection, and then it resumes the flashing amber light. Here is the error message:
    "This AirPort base station was unable to extend the wireless network. Make sure the wireless network you're trying to extend was set up and is working correctly, that you entered a matching wireless network password into this device, and that this device is in range of the wireless network."
    The Airport Extreme is in working condition, in range, and entered in correctly. I do not understand how it can work great for a second and then stop.
    Thanks!

    Power off both the AirPort Extreme and AirPort Express
    Wait a few minutes
    Power up the AirPort Extreme, and let it run a few minutes
    Then, power up the AirPort Express
    If you continue to have difficulty, ask Apple to replace the AirPort Express.

  • I am upgrading wi-fi router from Airport Express to Airport Extreme. I followed set up instructions yet I am still getting the flashing amber light and cannot setup (using manual setup or the continue button).  What should I do??

    Hello,
    I am upgrading my wireless router from an Airport Express to an Airport Extreme.  After disconnecting the Express and plugging the Extreme via ethernet cable to the modem, I am receiving a flashing amber light after connecting the power source.  I also reset the modem while the Extreme was still powered and plugged into the modem, but no luck.  I also tried resetting the modem and the Extreme and still no resolution.  Please advise.  Thank you!

    This error usually occurs when the Windows Firewall and/or anti-virus software blocks the connection attempt from the PC to the AirPort Extreme.
    Microsoft Security Essentials can do the same thing.
    Things would be much easier if you had a Mac or iPhone or iPad to set up the AirPort Extreme. Otherwise try turning off the Windows Firewall and Anti-Virus programs, etc on the PC.
    Restart the PC, then see if the PC can contact the AiPort Extreme. It will likely help to connect an Ethernet cable from the PC to one of the LAN <-> ports on the AirPort Extreme. You can disconnect the Ethernet cable once the AirPort Extreme has been configured.
    Re-enable the Windows Firewall, Anti-Virus, etc and restart the PC.

  • Time Capsule drops wifi/internet connection and flashes amber

    Time Capsule drops wifi/internet connection and flashes amber.  I've tried unplugging it and my modem but it continues to do this every so often.  The time capsule is out in the open, so I don't think it's a heat issue.  It's running firmware 7.7.3.  Anyone else having this issue?  Any suggestions on how to fix it?  It's driving me crazy!

    Bought the time capsule in Oct 2013.  I have a Sagemcom 2864 modem from Bell but used through Teksavvy.  The 5 ghz has been flaky until I upgraded to Yosemite 10.10.1 I think.  I had a closer look at it and it appears that the wifi is ok.  I was thrown off by the wifi symbol being all animated in the menu bar.  I was able to ping the time capsule via wifi.  All the status lights on the modem looked ok.  Next time it happens, I'll see if I can get some more details.  Do you know if there's anyway to get some logs from the airport utility?

  • Cisco Ironport c160 licence upgrade

    hi all,
    What i need to do to upgrade expired license for ironport c160,
    Where can I read about product number for this type of license?

    Hi Mihail,
    I am not sure if I understand the question.
    If you have expired keys you should renew them. I would recommend contacting your Cisco Account Team and/or Reseller. If you are in process of renewing the keys, you could open a support ticket with our licensing team so they can evaluate the situation and assist you further.
    You can find information about the keys your appliance has via Web UI and CLI.
    In the Web UI, please go to:
    System Administration > Feature Keys > Feature Keys.
    Via CLI, please run:
    > featurekey list
    I hope this helps.

  • RD230 - Won't boot after BIOS - Server beeps and the screen is blank.

    Hi there,
    I have a problem with one of our RD230.
    The Server seems to be ok. No Errors in BIOS. SATA Raid configured and so on...
    But the server simply won't boot from CD or USB Drive or HDD.
    After the whole BIOS Process the server gives a permanent beep and the Digitron shows code 00. The Screen just shows a blinking cursor top left.
    Nothing happens.
    Removing the RAID, CD Drive, Network Card doesn't help.
    Does anyone have an Idea whats going on with this server?
    Also setting the J45 Jumper doesn't help.
    Thanks in Advance,
    Cheers,
    Chris

    2 Things that can typically fix this issue. Please reseat the memory and if that does not fix it, please reseat the processor.
    Questions
    1 - Has this system worked prior to this or is this an out-of-box failure?
    2 - If it has worked in the past, what changes were made just prior to this issue? (ie Windows Update, BIOS Update, firmware update, driver(s) update, etc.)

  • Two beeps and flashing screen

    My wife's 3rd generation nano stopped working while she was listening to a podcast for runners. There was no response.
    I tried resetting it, pressing the middle button and the top for over ten seconds. No apple logo but I heard two faint beeps.
    I tried holding the middle and the down button. Two beeps and the screen flashed repeatedly.
    I hooked it up to iTunes and it was recognized. I tried restoring the software. I renamed the iPod just to see if the connection was really there. After I reset it I disconnected and repeated the first steps with the same results. I hooked it back up to iTunes and it recognized the iPod and the new name.
    I checked for update. No glory.
    I'm at the end of my knowledge, any ideas?

    the same exact thing happened to me yesterday. I was running and a song would stop halfway through it. I kept pushing play again and it got to be every 10 seconds instead of every minute or so.
    I finally let it stay paused and my screen never worked during that time. I went home and plugged it in the computer and it didnt recognize it and the screen stayed blank. I restored the ipod to default settings from the computer and during the whole time the screen never came back on, just beeping, not even a flashing screen.
    I was able to add songs back on it from my computer but it still doesnt work or anything, connected or disconnected from the computer. I left it alone all night plugged into the computer and it still wont work at all. It just beeps. Ive tried the resettings and all. PLEASE HELP!!
    Thank you

  • Bold 9930 - dead and flashing red light

    Bold - Verizon 9930, died with flashing red light, non-responsive. Can connect wtih loader, re-loading latest OS for Verizon (7.1.0_rel1737_PL5.1.0.429_A7.1.0.580_Verizon_Wireless) Load fails with "application loader was unable to connect with your device" when it tries to connect with the JVM. I have tried:- fully charged known good battery (tested in another 9930)- wiping device- start without battery, insert battery when JVM message comes up- both BB desktop and Loader directly- two different PCs (no change)- different USB ports- older version of BB OS for device- many, many iterations... All end with "application loader was unable to connect with your device" Is the device scrap?  If so why?  It's not even 2 years old, out of warranty, and apparently now totally worthless.  This one is the CEO's Blackberry, and he's not happy...  If I can't resolve this, it will be the very last BB to ever see the inside of our company.  This is the second 9930 to die this way in the last 4 weeks.

    Does RIM care about these failure issues at all I wonder?
    If you were hoping for a response from RIM, you have misunderstood the purpose of these forums. These are not a channel for any communications with, support from, nor escalation to RIM for anything. Rather, these are a user-to-user community of volunteers trying to help each other out amidst their own busy lives. So patience perhaps would be a good thing to have...
    Nevertheless, please try this sequence...note that, throughout the entire 4h15m process, your BB must remain connected to a known-good wall charger (not PC USB):
    With the battery inside, connect your BB to the wall charger
    Leave it alone for 2 hours, no matter what the LED or the display does
    Remove the battery
    Wait 15 minutes
    Insert the battery
    Wait another 2 hours, no matter what the LED or the display does
    This has been known to "kick start" some BBs.
    While you've already validated that your battery is good, I don't think you've tried the first part of this test:
    Obtain a known good and already fully charged additional battery...use it in your BB and see what happens
    Obtain access to a known good and identical BB...use your battery in it and see what happens
    The results of this will indicate if it's your BB or your battery that has the problem.
    While perhaps redundant to what you've already attempted, here are a few more things to try:

    Since you are out of warranty, your next step I suppose would be to seek in-hand support from a qualified technician to give you a proper diagnosis. Doing such at this internet distance is quite a challenge and therefore cannot replace in-hand evaluation and diagnosis.
    Good luck and let us know!
