Viewing the FC/FCoE Event Log
Event Log Interpretation

All events logged by Emulex Storport Miniport are in Event ID 11 with source
“elxfc/elxcna”.

The Storport Miniport driver parameter LogErrors determines what type of
events are logged by the driver; the default setting is “3” which logs only events
of a SEVERE nature; the optional setting of “2” logs events of both SEVERE and
MALFUNCTION type; the optional setting of “1” logs events of SEVERE,
MALFUNCTION and COMMAND type.
Note: For troubleshooting SAN connectivity or device discovery issues, set the
LogErrors to 1.

The Emulex event code is found in byte 0010 and supplementary data is in byte
offsets 0011 through 0013.
Additional Event Log Information

Emulex's experiences in our support and testing environments, we feel are most likely
to show up in SAN environments where issues occur.
ELS/FCP Command Error Status Codes
Internal firmware codes posted by the adapter firmware that explain why a particular
ELS or FCP command failed at the FC level.
