5 FABR-1024 FABR-1024 Message Initializing fabric size limit timer . Message Type LOG Severity INFO Probable Cause Indicates that the fabric size has exceeded the limit set by your value-line switches. Value-line switches have a limited fabric size (for example, a specified limit on the number of domains). This value is defined by your specific value-line license key. The fabric size has exceeded this specified limit. The grace period timer has been initialized. If the grace period is complete and the size of the fabric is still outside the specified limit, Web Tools is disabled. Recommended Action Bring the fabric size within the licensed limits. Either a full fabric license must be added or the size of the fabric must be changed to within the licensed limit. Contact your switch provider to obtain a full fabric license. FABR-1029 Message Port negotiated (mode = ). Message Type LOG Severity INFO Probable Cause Indicates that a different flow control mode, as described in the message, is negotiated with the port at the other end of the link. The flow control is a mechanism of throttling the transmitter port to avoid buffer overrun at the receiving port. There are three types of flow control modes: • VC_RDY mode: Virtual-channel flow control mode. This is a proprietary protocol. • R_RDY mode: Receiver-ready flow control mode. This is the Fibre Channel standard protocol, that uses R_RDY primitive for flow control. • DUAL_CR mode: Dual-credit flow control mode. In both of the previous modes, the buffer credits are fixed, based on the port configuration information. In this mode, the buffer credits are negotiated as part of exchange link parameter (ELP) exchange. This mode also uses the R_RDY primitive for flow control. Recommended Action No action is required.
