If you change the hardware recovery setting from the default (reset) to either none (ignore) or shutdown, the switch expands the Recovery Mode output to include a description of the hardware recovery mode.
If you keep the default behavior or return to reset, the Recovery Mode output lists only the software recovery setting.
The following truncated output from a Summit series switch displays the software recovery and hardware recovery settings (displayed as Recovery Mode):
SysName: TechPubs Lab SysLocation: SysContact: support@extremenetworks.com, +1 888 257 3000 System MAC: 00:04:96:1F:A5:71 Recovery Mode: All System Watchdog: Enabled
To see the output of show switch command for a particular node other than the master, you should log into that node and run the show switch command.
If you configure the hardware recovery setting to none, the output displays “Ignore” to indicate that no corrective actions will occur on the switch. “Ignore” appears only if you configure the hardware recovery setting to none.
If you configure the hardware recovery setting to shut down, the output displays “Shutdown” to indicate that the switch will shut down if fault detection occurs. “Shutdown” appears only if you configure the hardware recovery setting to shut down.
If you configure the hardware recovery setting to reset, the output only displays the software recovery mode.
