2-12 StorageWorks Fibre Channel Storage Switch Sevice Guide
NOTE: When running the Spin Silk Test, you must set the operating mode value to 0 or 1.
Modes 2 and 3 do not send out the ELP used to discover Switches. If the ELP is not sent,
the Switch does not know the port is connected to another port on the same Switch and
the test fails. Refer to Operating Mode for definitions of the four modes.
Display Test
Pressing <Enter> while Display Test is selected causes a series of test
characters to be displayed. Use this test to determine if the display is
functioning properly.
Push Button Test
Pressing <Enter> while
Push Button Test
is selected displays:
Push Button Test 1234
1 & 4 to exit
Pressing any front panel button causes the corresponding button number to
move to the second line. To exit this test, simultaneously press the 1 (down)
and 4 (enter) buttons.
NOTE: If you press buttons 1 and 3 simultaneously the Switch reboots
Diagnostic Error Messages
Error messages are stored in volatile RAM and are lost whenever power is
removed from the Switch. Access the error message log to view error
messages before removing power.
Error messages are displayed on the front panel display and through Telnet.
These messages are also stored in the system log and are displayed when the
errShow command is executed.
NOTE: If you run the
portStatsShow o
r the
diagShow
command prior to running a test,
errors may appear as a result of the normal synchronization process. These errors should
be addressed if the number of errors found increases when running the
portStatsShow
command again.
