IN_PTTOPT_NPORT/PTTOPT_NPORT
.
The host bus adapter has come up in a point to point topology. This topology can be
an error if the card was expected to come up in loop topology. Not legal in most
cases.
PTTOPT_FABRIC.
The host bus adapter has come up in a point to point topology when connected
through a Fibre Channel switch. This topology can be an error if the card was
expected to come up in loop topology.
The following driver states are defined:
LOOPBACK_STATE
.
The host bus adapter is in the loop back test phase.
OFFLINE/DISABLED
.
The host bus adapter is not participating on the loop. This state is the result of user
disabling the card through the disable option in
fcmsutil or the Fibre Channel
driver being unable to recover from an error.
READY/ONLINE.
The driver is up and functional.
RESETTING.
The host bus adapter is being reset.
SUSPENDED.
The driver has been suspended by the user.
AWAITING_LINK_UP.
The driver is waiting for the Fibre Channel link to come up. There is no connec-
tivity to the HBA port.
All other states are only transient and should not continue for long. If the transient state
persists, there might be a problem in the hardware connectivity or configuration.
The following link speeds are defined:
UNINITIALIZED or UNKNOWN.
The host bus adapter could not converge to a common link speed or adapter is not
connected.
1Gb.
The link is online and the operating speed is 1 gigabits per second.
2Gb.
The link is online and the operating speed is 2 gigabits per second.
4Gb.
The link is online and the operating speed is 4 gigabits per second.
8Gb.
The link is online and the operating speed is 8 gigabits per second.
vpd This option is used to display "Vital Product Data" information of the HBA. It includes
information such as the product description, part number, engineering date code, part
serial number, and so on. This option is not supported by the TACHYON TL HBAs.
echo remote-N-Port-ID data_size [count ]
This option is used to send an ECHO ELS frame on the wire. It requires two parameters,
the remote-N-Port-ID and data-size (size of packet to send). An optional third argument
(count ) can be specified for the number of echo packets to be sent. If the count option is
not specified, one packet will be sent.
Fibre Channel Echo packets of the specified size are sent to the remote node. The com-
mand completes successfully when an echo response is received from the remote node
and matches the data sent, for all packets sent. The command times out if a response is
not received in twice RA_TOV time. Echo packets cannot be sent in a PUBLIC_LOOP
topology.
Note: Packet size specified must be a multiple of 4.
