Embedded Port log (FICON style display mode)
•
Non-wrapping Log or Wrapping Log—From the submenu, select Non-wrapping log or
Wrapping log. Wrapping log is the default.
•
Log Settings— Displays the current settings of the log options configured on the Switch. These
settings affect how log data is captured and stored on the Switch, not just what is displayed in
the dialog box. For example, if Include Class F Frames is turned off or unchecked, Class F frames
are not captured or stored in the log on the Switch and are not accessible from this log. To
change these options, click Change. For for more information, see ”
•
Date and Time—The date and time that the event occurred. The format is yyyy/mm/dd
hh:mm:ss:tt. The last two characters (hundredth of seconds) are needed due to the possible
higher frequency rates of some of the advanced logs.
•
Port—The decimal receive port number on the local Switch associated with the flow that was
rerouted. When FICON style is on, the hexadecimal equivalent of the port number displays in
parentheses. When FICON style is off, only the decimal value is shown and there is no value in
the parenthesis.
•
Direction—In or Out indicates the direction of the frame in reference to the embedded port
and is related to the port number. For example, if In displays, then the frame is coming into the
embedded port from the port number specified in the Port box.
•
Frame Header—The Fibre Channel Frame Header string. This header is not interpreted by the
Element Manager. The table cell contents can be copied into a third-party application for
interpretation.
•
Length—Length of the payload, byte counter, decimal display format. Since the payload can
be longer that the maximum 32 bytes retained by the log, this value displays how many bytes
are actually in the frame.
•
Payload—The payload portion of the data box.
•
SOF—The string that contains the Start of Frame code abbreviation. Place the cursor over a cell
in this column to display descriptions of the abbreviation.
