verify links Description Verifies host-port links. If a remote system is specified, all link paths between the local system and the remote system are tested; otherwise, link paths between controller A and controller B in the local system are tested. The remote system must already have been added by using the create remote-system command. For replication purposes, this tests the links to be used for replication from one system to another system. To verify bidirectional communication, run this command from the primary system to the secondary system, and then from the secondary system to the primary system. Syntax verify link [remote-system system] [link-type FC|iSCSI|ALL] Parameters remote-system system Optional. The remote system's name or the IP address of one of its controller network ports. If this parameter is omitted, links between the local controllers are verified. link-type FC|iSCSI|ALL Optional. Specifies the type of host-port links to verify: • FC: Verify FC-to-FC links only. • iSCSI: Verify iSCSI-to-iSCSI links only. • ALL: Verify all FC-to-FC and iSCSI-to-iSCSI links. If this parameter is omitted, all links are verified. Output Port The port ID in the local system. Type • FC: FC port. • iSCSI: iSCSI port. • Unknown: Port type is unknown. Links The IDs of linked ports in the target system. Example Verify all links between controllers A and B in the local system: # verify links Port Type Links A1 FC B1 A2 FC B1 FC A1 B2 FC Success: Command completed successfully.
