408 Error messages
ZONE-1027
Message
Probable Cause
Indicates that the zoning transaction was aborted due to a variety of potential errors. The error reason
variable can be one of the following:
• Zone Merge Received: The fabric is in the process of merging two zone databases.
• Zone Config update Received: The fabric is in the process of updating the zone database.
• Bad Zone Config: The new config is not viable.
• Zoning Operation failed: A zoning operation failed.
• Shell exited: The command shell has exited.
• Unknown: An error was received for an unknown reason.
• User Command: A user aborted the current zoning transaction.
• Switch Shutting Down: The switch is currently shutting down.
Recommended Action
Many of the causes of this error message are transitory: for example because two admins are working with
the zoning database concurrently. If you receive this error, wait a few minutes and try again. Verify that no
one else is currently modifying the zone database.
Severity
ERROR
ZONE-1028
Message
Probable Cause
Indicates that the zone database size is greater than the limit allowed by the fabric. The limit of the zone
database size depends on the lowest level switch in the fabric. Older switches have less memory and force
a smaller zone database for the entire fabric.
Recommended Action
Edit the zone database to keep it within the allowable limit for the specific switches in your fabric. Refer to
the
HP StorageWorks Fabric OS 5.x administrator guide for information on the zone database sizes
supported for each switch.
