N4032 pair, no traffic - No console output on one switch
I have a pair of N4032's running through to a set of esxi hosts and connecting to a powervault for datastores from the esxi hosts.
This past weekend, I lost connetivity to the Datastores and in the process of troubleshooting I eventually unplugged power to one of the switches. Datastores were immediately available after I did this, I plugged the switch back in to restore redunancy, and the datastore failed again, so I unplugged it, and it came back.
I wanted to get into the switches to see if I could see anything strange, but I'm unable to console into one of the switches. I powered the one I originally unplugged after removing the network cables from it, and I can console into it, but the one that's actually left running is not accessible. The console cable works on all my other dell switches, terminal is 9600/8-n-1, there is just no output.
I have no idea what is causing either of these problems.

Hi,
Are the switches stacked? Are you able to reboot that one with the other one connected?
