McDATA 316095-B21 - StorageWorks Edge Switch 2/24 Installation And Service Manual page 495

Event Code: 506
Message: Fibre Channel port failure
Severity: Major
Explanation: One of the four ports on a single port module has failed and has been taken out of service. Normally the amber
Service Required LED on the corresponding port is illuminated to indicate which port has failed. All other ports on
the module remain operational if their respective Service Required LEDs are off.
Action: Perform a data collection procedure for this switch using the EFC Manager, save the data file to the EFC Server
Zip drive and return the CD to McDATA for analysis. Perform a system power-on reset. If the problem persists,
replace the switch. A failed port may also be recovered by performing a port reset using the EFC Manager or the
Web interface, however newly detected errors may result in the port failing again.
