1819: Unrecognized lpfc_sli_mode parameter:
The user has attempted to set the SLI mode to an invalid value. The valid values for the SLI mode
are 0, 2, and 3.
Data: (1) lpfc_sli_mode
Severity: Error
Log:
LOG_VPORT verbose

The HBA is incapable of operating in a given mode.
Data: None
Severity: Error
Log:
LOG_VPORT verbose
Action: SLI-3 mode is only available on some HBAs. Do not attempt to force the SLI mode to 3 on
HBAs that do not support SLI-3 mode. This is an informational message. HBAs that do not
support SLI-3 will be configured to run in SLI-2 mode, but it is recommended to use the
auto setting (0).
1821: Create VPORT failed. Invalid WWN format
The port could not be created due to an invalid WWNN or WWPN format.
Data: None
Severity: Error
Log:
LOG_VPORT verbose

LOG_VPORT verbose
Action: When creating a VPort you must furnish a valid WWN.
1823: Create VPORT failed. Duplicate WWN on HBA.
The port could not be created because it would duplicate an existing WWNN HBA address. The
resources for the port had to be discarded.
Data: None
Severity: Error
Log:
LOG_VPORT verbose
Action: Provide a WWN that is unique.
1824: NPIV enabled: Override lpfc_sli_mode parameter () to auto(0)
The lpfc_enable_npiv and lpfc_sli_mode driver parameter settings conflict. The HBA must be
configured for SLI-3 mode to support NPIV.
Data: (1) lpfc_sli_mode
Severity: Error
Log:
LOG_VPORT verbose
Action: This is an informational message that indicates that the lpfc_enable_npiv and
lpfc_sli_mode parameter settings are not compatible. Resolve the parameter conflict by
setting the SLI mode to 0 or 3 or, if SLI-2 mode is required then disable NPIV.
