HP 316095-B21 - StorageWorks Edge Switch 2/24 Service Manual page 229

Message: Invalid attachment.
Severity: Informational.
Explanation: A switch port recognized an incompatibility with the attached fabric element or device
and isolated the port. An isolated port does not transmit Class 2, Class 3, or Class F
traffic. Refer to the event data for the reason.
Action: Action depends on the reason specified in the event data.
Event Data: The first byte of event data (byte 0) specifies the port number. The fifth byte (byte 4)
specifies the isolation reason as follows:
1 = Unknown - Isolation reason is unknown, but probably caused by failure of a device
attached to the switch through an E_Port connection. Fault isolate the failed device or
contact support personnel to report the problem.
2 = ISL connection not allowed - The port connection conflicts with the configured port
type. Change the port type to F_Port if the port is cabled to a device, or E_Port if the
port is cabled to a fabric element to form an ISL.
3 = Incompatible switch - The switch returned a Process ELP Reject - Unable to
Process reason code because the attached fabric element is not compatible. Set the
switch operating mode to Homogeneous Fabric 1.0 if connected to a HP product. Set
the switch operating mode to Open Fabric 1.0 if connected to an open-fabric compliant
product manufactured by a different vendor.
4 = Incompatible switch - The switch returned a Process ELP Reject - Invalid Revision
Level reason code because the attached fabric element is not compatible. Set the switch
operating mode to Homogeneous Fabric 1.0 if connected to a HP product. Set the
switch operating mode to Open Fabric 1.0 if connected to an open-fabric compliant
product manufactured by a different vendor.
5 = Loopback plug connected - A loopback plug is connected to the port with no
diagnostic test running. Remove the loopback plug.
6 = N_Port connection not allowed - The switch is connected to a fabric element
through a port configured as an F_Port. Change the port type to E_Port.
7 = Non-HP switch at other end - The attached fabric element is not a HP product. Set
the switch operating mode to Open Fabric 1.0 if connected to an open-fabric compliant
product manufactured by a different vendor.
A = Unauthorized port binding WWN - The device WWN or nickname used to
configure port binding for this port is not valid. Reconfigure the port with the WWN or
nickname authorized for the attached device.
