Port swapping

Registered listeners
To display registered listeners for link incidents, connect to the switch, log in as user, and enter one
of the following commands:
For the local switch: ficonShow lirr
For all switches defined in the fabric: ficonShow lirr fabric
Example of LIRR output:
switch_4:FID4:admin> ficonshow lirr
{Fmt Type PID Listener Port WWN Switch Port WWN Listener Type
0x18 N c10100 50:05:07:64:01:ff:ff:01 20:01:00:05:1e:57:da:5b Conditional-C*
0x18 N c10200 50:05:07:64:01:ff:ff:02 20:02:00:05:1e:57:da:5b Conditional-S
0x18 N c10300 50:05:07:64:01:ff:ff:03 20:03:00:05:1e:57:da:5b Conditional
The Local LIRR database has 3 entries
Current LIRR device port number: <XX>
When you configure an LIRR entry and it is current, it is marked with -C. If the Management Server
marks an entry as current based on order, it is marked with -C. If the Management Server marks
an entry as secondary, it is marked with -S.
If the LIRR is configured then the <XX> indicates a valid port number. Otherwise, the line will
display the following:
Current LIRR device port number is not configured.
Node identification data
To display node-identification data, connect to the switch, log in as user, and enter any of the
following commands:
For the local switch: ficonShow switchrnid
For all switches defined in the fabric: ficonShow switchrnid fabric
For all devices registered with the local switch: ficonShow rnid
For all devices registered with all switches defined in the fabric: ficonShow rnid fabric
FRU failures
FRU failure information is no longer stored on the switch. FRU failures are sent to the host operator
console.
Port swapping
If a port malfunctions, or if you want to connect to different devices without having to re-wire your
infrastructure, you can move a port’s traffic to another port (swap ports) without changing the I/O
Configuration Data Set (IOCDS) on the mainframe computer.
ATTENTION
Ports that have been swapped cannot be moved to another logical switch.
