Performing Port Diagnostics

Fibre channel port diagnostics are performed at the switch and Product Manager
application. These diagnostics include:
• Inspecting port LEDs at the switch front panel or emulated port LEDs at the
HAFM Hardware View.
• Inspecting parameters at the HAFM server (Edge Switch 2/24 Product Manager
application).
• Inspecting parameters at the EWS interface (refer to the hp StorageWorks
embedded web server user guide for more information)

Port LEDs

To obtain port operational information, inspect port LEDs at the switch front panel or
emulated port LEDs at the HAFM Hardware View. Amber and blue/green LEDs
adjacent to each port indicate operational status as described in

2.125 Gbps, the blue/green LED
illuminates blue.
At the switch, the blue/green LED
blinks green when there is Fibre
Channel traffic through the port at
1.0625 Gbps. At the switch, the

there is Fibre Channel traffic through
the port at 12.125 Gbps.
