HP Brocade 8/12c Brocade Fabric OS Command Reference Manual Supporting Fabric - Page 326

2 fcrPathTest Notes The execution of this command is subject to Virtual Fabric or Admin Domain restrictions that may be in place. Refer to chapter 1, "Using Fabric OS commands" and Appendix A, "Command Availability" for details. This command is supported only on Brocade FR4-18i blades and Brocade 7500 platforms. The switch must be offline for this test to run. Operands This command has the following operands: --slot slot Specifies the slot number on which the diagnostic operates. The default is 0 and operates on fixed-port-count products. -unit number Specifies the FC Router FPGA to test. By default, all FC Router FPGAs in the specified slot are tested. Valid number values include: 0 FC Router FPGA 0 1 FC Router FPGA 1 2 -path mode All FC Router FPGAs Specifies the loopback point for the test. By default, fcrPathTest uses the Central ASIC loopback. Valid mode values include: 1 Central ASIC loopback 2 FC Router FPGA Serdes loopback 3 -nframes count FC Router FPGA internal loopback Specifies the number of frames to send. The test progresses until the specified number of frames are transmitted on each port. The default value is 10. Examples To test slot 2 with FC Router FPGA Serdes loopback sending 10 frames: switch:admin> fcrpathtest --slot 2 -path 2 -nframes 10 Running fcrpathtest Test Complete: fcrpathtest Pass 10 of 10 Duration 0 hr, 0 min & 18 sec (0:0:18:942). passed. Diagnostics When a failure is detected, the test may report one or more of the following: DIAG-DATA The payload received by the specified port did not match the transmitted payload. A cable, media, or ASIC failure is the probable cause. Check for a faulty SFP. Replace the SFP if necessary. DIAG-ERRSTAT One of the ASIC internal counters detected a frame statistics error in the received frame. A cable, media, or ASIC failure is the probable cause. Check for a faulty SFP. Replace the SFP if necessary. DIAG-INIT The port failed to synchronize in the loopback mode requested. A cable, media, or ASIC failure is the probable cause. Check for a faulty SFP. Replace the SFP if necessary. DIAG-PORTDIED The specified port was in loopback mode and then lost sync. A cable, media, or ASIC failure is the probable cause. Check for a faulty SFP. Replace the SFP if necessary. 294 Fabric OS Command Reference 53-1001764-01
