Event Code Tables
A-17
Event Code: 150
Message: Zone merge failure.
Severity: Informational.
Explanation: During ISL initialization, the zone merge process failed. Either an incompatible zone set was detected or a
problem occurred during delivery of a zone merge frame. This event code always precedes a 070 ISL
segmentation event code, and represents the reply of an adjacent fabric element in response to a zone merge
frame. Refer to the event data for the failure reason.
Action: Action depends on the failure reason specified in the event data.
Event Data: Bytes 0 - 3 of the event data specify affected E_Port number(s). Bytes 8 - 11 specify the failure reason as follows:
01 = Invalid data length - An invalid data length condition caused an error in a zone merge frame. Disconnect
the E_Port link, then reconnect the link. If the condition persists, perform the data collection procedure and return
the diskette to McDATA support personnel.
08 = Invalid zone set format - An invalid zone set format caused an error in a zone merge frame. Disconnect the
E_Port link, then reconnect the link. If the condition persists, perform the data collection procedure and return the
diskette to McDATA support personnel.
09 = Invalid data - Invalid data caused a zone merge failure. Inspect bytes 12 - 15 of the event data for error
codes. Refer to error code definitions listed on the following page to correct the problem.
0A = Cannot merge - A Cannot Merge condition caused a zone merge failure. Inspect bytes 12 - 15 of the event
data for error codes. Refer to error code definitions listed on the following page to correct the problem.
F0 = Retry limit reached - A retry limit reached condition caused an error in a zone merge frame. Disconnect the
E_Port link, then reconnect the link. If the condition persists, perform the data collection procedure and return the
diskette to McDATA support personnel.
F1 = Invalid response length - An invalid response length condition caused an error in a zone merge frame.
Disconnect the E_Port link, then reconnect the link. If the condition persists, perform the data collection
procedure and return the diskette to McDATA support personnel.
F2 = Invalid response code - An invalid response code caused an error in a zone merge frame. Disconnect the
E_Port link, then reconnect the link. If the condition persists, perform the data collection procedure and return the
diskette to McDATA support personnel.
