New Command in v3.1.2 New Command in v3.1.2 pathInfo Displays routing and statistics info along a path. Synopsis pathInfo [domain], source port] destination port] [,"-r"] Availability root admin Description The pathInfo command displays detailed routing information from a source port (or area) on the local switch to a destination port (or area) on another switch. This routing information describes the exact path that a user data stream takes to go from the source to the destination. If the user specifies the use of inactive ports or a path through a switch that does not have active routing tables to the destination, pathInfo describes the path that would be used if the ports were active. If the user specifies a destination port that is not active, then pathInfo uses the embedded port as the destination. For switches with blades, the ingress and egress points are specified as area numbers. For a non-bladed switch, ingress and egress points are specified as ports. This agrees with the representation shown in the switchShow command. The pathInfo command can also provide, upon request, statistics on every traversed ISL. The routing and statistical information are provided by every switch along the path, based on the current routing tables information and statistics calculated continuously in real time. Each switch represents one hop. Other options allow the collection of information on the reverse path or on a user-selected path (source route). 12 SAN Switch 2/16 Fabric OS 3.1.2 Release Notes
