The destination port cannot be an ISL, Layer 2, Layer 3, QoS, ACL, 802.1x, LAG member, LLDP, or
port-profile port. The source port cannot be an ISL port. In VCS Fabric mode, only edge ports are
eligible for mirroring.
Using hardware diagnostics
The following diagnostic types currently exist:
• Power-on self-test (POST)
• Offline diagnostics
Online diagnostics are not currently supported on Brocade VDX switches.
Using POST diagnostics
POST is run on bootup and the results are stored. Use the show diag post results command to view
the stored results.
To enable POST, enter the diag post rbridge-id rbridge-id enable command.
Using offline diagnostics
Before proceeding, note the following Caution:
CAUTION
Offline diagnostics — otherwise known as system verification tests — are disruptive tests that
check the individual hardware components thoroughly and report the findings. You must
disable the chassis before running these tests. Do not run production traffic during this time.
Enter the diag systemverification command to run the entire set of offline diagnostics. This command
can take up to two hours to finish, so Brocade recommends the less disruptive diag systemverification
