Actions

Clear Loopback Test

Clears the loopback test on a plug-in card (PIC). This action clears both the internal loopback test
initiated by the Internal Loopback Test action and the external loopback initiated by the guided
procedure for troubleshooting a ServerNet fabric. The action enables ServerNet ports so that
packets can be routed to the PIC from adjacent ports on the MSEB or IOMF2 and from the PIC in
another enclosure connected by the ServerNet cable to the PIC being tested. Use this action if the
$ZCMOM process terminates while a loopback test is being performed. This action is safe to use
on any PIC even if you are not sure a loopback test needs to be cleared on the PIC.

Enable/Disable Port

Enables or disables the port for this CRU.

Parameter: Enabled (true = enabled, false = disabled)

NOTE:

If the port being enabled or disabled is on an NNA-type (MSEB) PIC connected to an

External Servernet Switch, you must issue a Reset on the Primary SP in Group 1.

External Loopback Test

The external loopback test checks the circuitry of a plug-in card (PIC) to determine if ServerNet
traffic can pass through the PIC. You can use this test on a PIC installed in any port of an MSEB
or IOMF2 CRU. This test requires you to remove the ServerNet cable attached to the PIC and install
a loopback plug.
