Solution

The output "show chassis environment" is not showing anything for PSM0 in PSDU1. Verify the LED status on PSM0 in PDU1 to get the status.

Try to reseat the PSM, If the issue persists even after reseating the PSU, try swapping/changing the PSM to determine if the problem lies with the PSM or the slot.
