Virtual Fabrics Fabric identification issues Symptom Probable cause and recommended action E_Ports directly connecting two logical switches do not form, or are disabled. The FIDs on each of the logical switches must be the same. Use the lsCfg --show command to view the current FIDs on the chassis and then the lsCfg --change command with the -newfid option to change the FID. Symptom Probable cause and recommended action . Symptom Probable cause and recommended action Logical Fabric issues Symptom Probable cause and recommended action Invalid FID. FIDs for switches may be from 1 through 128 as long as they are not already in use, except for EX_Ports, which are only assigned FIDs from 1 through 127. Use the lsCfg --show command to verify whether the FID is in use. If it is, use another FID. The FID is currently in use. You may not create two or more logical switches with the same FID. Use the lsCfg --show and fcrFabricShow commands to view FIDs in use Logical port disabled. This message indicates an LISL was disabled because of some protocol conflict or security or policy violation. This can result in possible traffic issues. You should resolve the cause of the conflict and re-enable the LISL by using the lfCfg --lislenable command. Symptom Probable cause and recommended action The switch with domain with firmware version has joined the FID fabric and may not be compatible with XISL use. This message indicates the specified switch in the logical fabric that is using XISLs is running an incompatible firmware version and must be upgraded to Fabric OS v6.2.0 or later. Symptom Probable cause and recommended action Logical port segmented Ensure that the fabwide policy, zoning, and defzone settings are consistent on the logical switches intending to be joined. Base switch issues All logical switches in a fabric should have the same base switch attribute. If a base switch is connected to a non-base switch, then you must take the appropriate action to resolve the conflict. Brocade Fabric OS Troubleshooting and Diagnostics Guide 68 53-1004126-01
