Troubleshooting FICON 10 • Supportshow data is only valid if run within about 30 minutes of the failure in order for the data to be valid. • Provide the IOCDS mainframe file. This will define how all mainframe ports are configured. • Type of mainframe involved. Need make, model, and driver levels in use. • Type of actual Storage array installed. Many arrays will emulate a certain type of IBM array and we need to know the exact make, model, and firmware of the array in use. • Read Brocade Release Notes for specific version of Fabric OS being installed. The following sources provide useful problem-solving information: • The standard support commands (portLogDump, supportSave, supportShow) or the Fabric Manager Event Log. • Other detailed information for protocol-specific problems: - Display port data structures using the ptDataShow command. - Display port registers using the ptRegShow command. Identifying ports The ficonShow rlir command displays, among other information, a tag field for the switch port. You can use this tag to identify the port on which a FICON link incident occurred. The tag field is a concatenation of the switch domain ID and port number, in hexidecimal format. The following example shows a link incident for the switch port at domain ID 120, port 93 (785d in hex): switch:admin> ficonshow rlir { {Fmt Type PID Port Incident Count TS Format Time Stamp 0x18 F 785d00 93 1 Time server Thu Apr 22 09:13:32 2004 Port Status: Link not operational Link Failure Type: Loss of signal or synchronization Registered Port WWN Registered Node WWN 50:05:07:64:01:40:16:03 50:05:07:64:00:c1:69:ca Type number: 002064 Model number: 103 Manufacturer: IBM Plant of Manufacture: 02 Sequence Number: 0000000169CA tag: 155d Flag 0x10 Node Parameters 0x200115 Switch Port WWN Switch Node WWN 20:5d:00:60:69:80:45:7c 10:00:00:60:69:80:45:7c Type number: SLKWRM Model number: 24K Manufacturer: BRD Plant of Manufacture: CA Sequence Number: 000000000078 tag: 785d } } The Local RLIR database has 1 entry.

Supportshow data is only valid if run within about 30 minutes of the failure in order for the
data to be valid.
Provide the IOCDS mainframe file.
This will define how all mainframe ports are configured.
Type of mainframe involved. Need make, model, and driver levels in use.
Type of actual Storage array installed. Many arrays will emulate a certain type of IBM array and
we need to know the exact make, model, and firmware of the array in use.
Read Brocade Release Notes for specific version of Fabric OS being installed.
The following sources provide useful problem-solving information:
The standard support commands (
portLogDump
,
supportSave, supportShow
) or the Fabric
Manager Event Log.
Other detailed information for protocol-specific problems:
-
Display port data structures using the
ptDataShow
command.
-
Display port registers using the
ptRegShow
command.
Identifying ports
The
ficonShow rlir
command displays, among other information, a tag field for the switch port. You
can use this tag to identify the port on which a FICON link incident occurred. The tag field is a
concatenation of the switch domain ID and port number, in hexidecimal format. The following
example shows a link incident for the switch port at domain ID 120, port 93 (785d in hex):
