> # Hardware Failure Action

> The failure-action command controls the Cisco NX-OS software from taking any action if a hardware failure is determined while running the tests.

> By default, this feature is enabled in all switches in the Cisco MDS 9000 Family—action is taken if a failure is determined and the failed component is isolated from further testing.

> Failure action is controlled at individual test levels (per module), at the module level (for all tests), or for the entire switch.
