portCfgFaultDelay

Configures the fault delay for a single FC port.

SYNOPSIS

portcfgfaultdelay [slot/]port delay

portcfgfaultdelay --help

DESCRIPTION

Use this command to configure the fault delay of an FC port.

In the event that the link is noisy after a host power cycle, the switch may go into a soft fault state, which
means a delay of R_A_TOV. Setting the mode value to 1 reduces the fault delay value to 1.2 seconds.
The configuration is stored in nonvolatile memory and is persistent across switch reboots and power
cycles.

Use the portCfgShow command to display the user-configured fault delay settings.

NOTES

The execution of this command is subject to Virtual Fabric or Admin Domain restrictions that may be in
place. Refer to Chapter 1, "Using Fabric OS Commands" and Appendix A, "Command Availability" for
details.

This command is applicable only to Fibre Channel ports.

slot

For bladed systems only, specifies the slot number of the port to be configured,
followed by a slash (/).

port

Specifies the number of the port to be configured, relative to its slot for bladed
systems. Use switchShow for a listing of valid ports.

delay

Specifies the fault delay value for the port number. This operand is required. Valid
values are one of the following:

0

1

Sets the fault delay to 1.2 seconds.

---help

Displays the command usage.
