External Storage XP user guide 65
• Port: Port number of the local array selected in the Port tree. One of the following icons appears for
each port:
• WWN: WWN identifying the external array’s port. This port is connected to the local array port
selected in the Port tree.
• LUN: External array’s LU number.
• Characteristic: External LU’s identification number.
• Group: External LU group number and reference number assigned to each LU in the external LU
group. External Storage XP automatically assigns the reference numbers to LUs in the group when
the external LUs are mapped. This is displayed in the format of “external LU group number -
reference number of volume in the group”.
• Status: Status of the path configured by the port of the local array and the port of the external array
identified by the WWN.
• Normal: Path is normal.
• Unknown: Path status is unknown.
• Blockade: Path is blocked.
• External device setting changed: External array’s setting changed. For example, the path
definition was deleted or the external array itself was replaced by another device.
• LDEV size reduced: External array’s volume capacity changed (volume capacity was reduced).
• Not ready: External array replied NOTREADY.
• Illegal request: External array replied ILLEGALREQUEST.
• Command aborted: External array replied ABORTEDCOMMAND.
• Busy: External array is in BUSY status.
• LDEV reserved: External array is in Reserve status.
• Response error: External array is in blocked status caused by an abnormal reply (Response).
• Initiator port: External array’s port attribute changed to the initiator port.
• Unknown port: External array’s port attribute is unknown.
• Cannot detect port: Path was removed or external array’s port could not be found.
• Internal error: Program error occurred, or there is a logical contradiction.
• Timeout: Processing was retried because an abnormal reply (Response) was returned; however,
processing was stopped by a timeout.
• Standby: External array’s port is standing by. The port status is normal, but cannot receive I/O.
• Target error: Port failures, such as controller blockade, are detected on the external array side.
• Checking: Process of checking the paths’ defined configuration information is in progress.
• Disconnect: Connection to the external array or external LU was intentionally stopped using the
Disconnect Subsystem or Disconnect Volume command.
• Unavailable: External array replied Unavailable. The external array demands to change the
connected port. Once the status becomes Unavailable, the primary path changes to the
alternate path that is in the Standby status. When the primary path changes, the status of the
path becomes Normal.
• Backoff: External array replied Backoff. The path status is waiting for recovery because a
temporary error occurred in the external array’s volume. Even if the primary path’s status
becomes Backoff, the primary path does not changed to the alternate path immediately. After
the error recovery, the status becomes Normal. If the status cannot be recovered from the error,
the path status changes to the other status.
