HP StorageWorks Fabric OS 5.X Diagnostics and System Error Messages Reference Guide (AA-RVHZB-TE, September 2005)

210 Error messages
Probable Cause
Indicates that the number of EE CRC errors has fallen below the low boundary. Invalid CRC messages
occur when the number of CRC errors in Fibre Channel frames for specific source ID (S_ID) and destination
ID (D_ID) pairs change. These messages might also be caused by dirty equipment, temperature
fluctuations, and aging equipment.
Recommended Action
No action is required. Respond to this message as is appropriate to the particular policy of the end-user
installation. A low number of CRC errors means that the fabric is functioning normally. The CRC error area
of the End-to-End Performance Monitor class helps you tune your fabric. To reduce CRC messages,
experiment with alternative topologies and cabling schemes.
Severity
INFO
FW-1242
Message
Probable Cause
Indicates that the number of EE CRC errors has risen above the high boundary. Invalid CRC messages
occur when the number of CRC errors in Fibre Channel frames for specific source ID (S_ID) and destination
ID (D_ID) pairs change. These messages might also be caused by dirty equipment, temperature
fluctuations, and aging equipment.
Recommended Action
The CRC error area of the End-to-End Performance Monitor class helps the user tune the fabric. To reduce
CRC errors, experiment with alternative topologies and cabling schemes. Clean equipment, check
temperatures, and replace old hardware.
Severity
WARNING
FW-1243
Message
Probable Cause
Indicates that the number of EE CRC errors has changed from a value outside of the acceptable range to a
value within the acceptable range. Invalid CRC messages occur when the number of CRC errors in Fibre
Channel frames for specific source ID (S_ID) and destination ID (D_ID) pairs change. These messages
might also be caused by dirty equipment, temperature fluctuations, and aging equipment.
Recommended Action
No action is required. Respond to this message as is appropriate to the particular policy of the end-user
installation.
