Dell Brocade G620 Brocade 8.0.1 Fabric OS Command Reference - Page 1065

spinFab The execution of this command is subject to Virtual Fabric restrictions that may be in place. Refer to "Using Fabric OS Commands" and "Command Availability" for details. Operands This command has the following operands: -nmegs count Specifies the number of frames to send in millions. The test progresses until the specified number of frames has been transmitted on each port. The default value is 10 million frames. This command only approximately counts the frames and the actual number of frames sent will be slightly larger, particularly at link speeds of 4 Gbps or higher. -framesize bytes For internal use only. Not supported. -ports itemlist Specifies a list of user ports to test. By default, all of the ISL ports in the current switch are tested. Refer to itemList for further details. -setfail mode Instructs spinFab how to mark failed ports. Valid values include the following: 0 Does not mark failing ports as FAILED (default). This option minimizes the impact on live fabrics. 1 Marks the failing ports as FAILED. In test or qualification environments without live traffic, this may be useful with large values of -nmegs count. This mode is disabled by default. -fports flag Instructs spinFab to include or exclude F_Ports in the testing. This feature is disabled by default. If enabled, spinFab tests the F_Ports connected to Brocade-branded HBAs along with other valid ports (E-ports & Loopback ports). The HBA must be running firmware v2.1.1 or higher. Valid flag values include the following: 0 Does not include F_Ports in the port list for testing (default). 1 Includes F_Ports in the port list for testing. -nframes number Determines how many frames will be sent by spinfab on the link to spin. Default is 2. The maximum number is 5. If you want to configure more than 5 use -nframes 0. -pattern number/name Forces spinfab to use a particular data pattern for the frames it spins between ports. The pattern can be a user defined pattern or is selected from a set of twenty five predefined pattern types. Use the datatypeshow command to view the predefined patterns supported with spinfab. For each pattern, the datatypeshow command displays the name, the pattern type number, and an example. Specify the pattern by its name after the -pattern option. If pattern is not specified, it defaults to jCRPAT (type=17). To use a user defined pattern, follow the -pattern option with a 32 bit hexadecimal number.
