To display error messages using Telnet:
1.
From the prompt, enter the
errShow
command.
2.
To scroll through the error list, type CR.
3.
Scroll through error log (if no errors are encountered, the command returns
No
Error
Diagnostic error message formats
If any port fails during a diagnostic test, it is marked BAD in the status display.
To retest a port which has been marked BAD, clear the port and set to OK using
the
diagClearError
(port#) command. This command clears the port status only
and does not clear the logs or change the port condition. The
diagClearError
(port#) command should only be used during diagnostic procedures to reset a bad
port for retest.
Some messages contain the following abbreviations:
sb = Should Be
er = Bits in error
Note:
If you run the
portStatsShow
or the
diagShow
command prior to running a
test, errors may appear as a result of the normal synchronization process.
These errors should be addressed if the number of errors found increases
after running the
portStatsShow
command again.
