Running a Fibre Channel protocol-level test using HCM
There are three protocol-level tests:
• Echo test, which sends an FC Echo ELS to a remote port.
• FC ping test, which requests the management server to test the connectivity with a given
remote port (without zoning restrictions). Not supported in Solaris operating systems.
• FC traceroute test, which requests to enumerate the route between two given end points. Not
supported in Solaris operating systems.
To run one of the protocol-level tests, use the following procedure.
1. Select an adapter or port from the device tree.
2. Select Configure > Diagnostics from the main menu.
OR
Right-click the component and select Diagnostics from the list.
The Diagnostics dialog box, shown in Figure 22 , displays.
3. Click the FC Protocol Tests tab.
