To verify high-availability features
High-Availability (HA) features provide maximum reliability and nondisruptive replacement of key
hardware and software modules. To verify these features, connect to the switch as admin and use any of
the following commands:
• chassisshow verifies the field replaceable units (FRUs).
• SilkWorm 12000, 24000, and 48000 directors
- haShow verifies that HA is enabled, that the heartbeat is up, and that the HA state is
synchronized between the active and standby CP blades.
- slotShow inventories and displays the current status of each slot in the system.
To verify fabric connectivity
1. Connect to the switch and log in as admin.
2. Enter the fabricShow command at the command line. This command displays a summary of all the
switches in the fabric.
Example

3. Optional: Enter the nsShow command to verify that devices, hosts, and storage have successfully
