10 Port binding violation - Unauthorized WWN

—The WWN that was entered

to configure Port Binding for this port is not valid, or a nickname was used that was not

configured for the attached device in the Element Manager.

11 Unresponsive node connected to port

—Possible causes are: (1) a hardware

problem on a switch or connected node where ELP frames are not delivered; the response is

not received, or a fabric login (FLOGI) cannot be received (there may be problem in the

switch SBAR); (2) a faulty or dirty cable connection; (3) faulty host bus adapters that do not

send out a FLOGI within a reasonable timeframe.

Reason messages for an inactive state include:

1 Switch speed conflict

(Director 2/64 model only)—The director data speed was

set to 2 Gb/s), but the port only supports 1 Gb/s operation because it is on an FPM port

card. (All ports on all installed FPM cards will go inactive if the director data speed is set to

2 Gb/s.) To activate the port, either set the director data speed to 1 Gb/s (1 Gig) through

the Configure Switch Parameters dialog box, or replace the FPM card with a UPM card.

2 Optics speed conflict

(Director 2/64 model only)—The port data speed was set

to 2 Gb/s, but the director data speed was set to 1 Gb/s. To activate the port, set the

director data speed to 2 Gb/s (2 Gig) through the Configure Switch Parameters dialog box.

Note that a port could also be inactive if the card is an FPM card and the port data speed

was set to 2 Gb/s. To activate the port in this case, set director data speed to 1 Gb/s, or

replace the FPM card with a UPM card.

NOTE:

Note that your director model and firmware may not allow variable data speed settings.

Threshold Alert—If a threshold alert exists for the port, an alert indicator (yellow triangle)

displays by the Threshold Alert field, and the configured name for the last alert received

displays in the field.

Zoning Enforcement—For directors, this field displays Soft zoning for ports using soft zoning

and Hard zoning for ports using hard zoning.
