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

312 Error messages
switches commit to the new database or none of them update to the new database. This process can fail if
one switch in the fabric is busy or in an error state that cannot accept the database.
Recommended Action
RCS is used when the security database is changed by a command run by security (for example,
secPolicySave, secPolicyActivate, or secVersionReset). If the switch is busy, the command might
fail the first time only; retry after the first fail.
Run the rcsInfoShow command to view RCS capability on the fabric. RCS must be capable on all
switches in the fabric to be enabled. If all switches are capable, it is automatically enabled.
If the message persists, run supportFtp (as needed) to set up automatic FTP transfers; then run the
supportSave command and contact your switch service provider.
Severity
ERROR
SEC-1002
Message
Probable Cause
Indicates that the receiving switch fails to validate the security database sent from the primary FCS switch.
This could result from the data package being corrupted, the time stamp on the package is out of range as
a result of replay attack or out-of-sync time service, or the signature verification failed. Signature verification
failure might be due to an internal error, such as losing the primary public key or an invalid database.
Recommended Action
Run the secFabricShow command to verify that the fabric is still consistent. All the switches should be in
the ready state. If a switch is in the error state, the database might not be correctly updated for that switch.
The error might also be a result of an internal corruption or a hacker attack to the secure fabric.
Severity
ERROR
SEC-1003
Message
Probable Cause
Indicates that the specified domain number failed to download security data after the specified number of
attempts. The primary switch will segment the failed switch after 30 tries. The failed switch might have had
some internal error and failed to accept the database download.
Recommended Action
Reset the version stamp on the switch to 0 using the secVersionReset command and then rejoin the
switch to the fabric.
If the message persists, run supportFtp (as needed) to set up automatic FTP transfers; then run the
supportSave command and contact your switch service provider.
