Issue

Two switch blades in a new director show FAULTY (21) in slotshow:

Slot Blade Type ID Status

-----------------------------------

1 CP BLADE 220 ENABLED

2 CP BLADE 220 ENABLED

3 SW BLADE 216 ENABLED

4 SW BLADE 216 FAULTY (21)

5 SW BLADE 216 FAULTY (21)

6 SW BLADE 216 ENABLED

7 CORE BLADE 215 ENABLED

8 CORE BLADE 215 ENABLED

9 SW BLADE 216 ENABLED

10 SW BLADE 216 ENABLED

11 UNKNOWN VACANT

12 UNKNOWN VACANT

Reseating one or both blades does not bring the port blades up as ENABLED.
For example, slot 4 fails first and slot 5 fails after, as per console output or errdump:
