Director Product Manager User Guide
Refer to the section on joining zoned fabrics in the hp StorageWorks SAN
high availability planning guide.
The following messages display in the Reason field of the Port dialog box if
an Invalid Attachment, Segmented E_Port, or Inactive State occurs for the
port. Reason messages for segmentation can include:
— Incompatible operating parameters. Operating parameters, such as
resource allocation time-out values (R_A_TOV) or error-detect time-out
values (E_D_TOV), are inconsistent. Refer to
Parameters" on page 124 for more information.
— Duplicate domain IDs. Identical preferred domain IDs are configured for
two or more directors or switches. Refer to
Parameters" on page 119 for more information.
— Incompatible zoning configurations. Refer to the HP StorageWorks
HA-Fabric Manager User Guide and the HP StorageWorks Director 2/64
Service Manual for more information on zoning.
— Build fabric protocol error.
— No principal switch. A principal director or switch is not defined for the
fabric.
— No response from the attached switch.
— ELP retransmission failure timeout. A director or switch with a hardware
or link failure attempted to join the fabric and transmitted multiple
exchange link protocol (ELP) frames to another director or switch.
Because of the failure, the failed director or switch did not receive
responses to the ELP frames and did not receive a FLOGI frame. The
failed director or switch times out.
A port binding error may be due to an invalid WWN or nickname entry in the
Configure Ports dialog box in the Bound WWN column. Refer to
"Configuring Ports" on page 127 for a description of the Configure Ports
dialog box.
Reasons messages for an invalid attachment can include:
— 01 Unknown. The reason is not known.
— 02 ISL connection not allowed on this port. ISL is
connected to a port configured as an F_Port.
— 03 ELP rejected by the attached switch. This director or
switch transmitted an exchange link protocol (ELP) frame that was
rejected by the switch at the other end of the ISL.
