ISL Disconnect Causes NOS Error with the OpenVMS Operating Systems
When an ISL connection is physically removed between directors or switches, the
Fibre Channel Adapter model FCA2354 transmits a Not Operational Sequence
(NOS) error. This is observed as an entry in the HAFM server Link Incident log
for the port in which the FCA2354 is attached. The director's Hardware View also
displays a yellow triangle icon over the port that detected this incident. The fabric
operation or data movement is not disrupted by these incidents, which can be
cleared using the following procedure.
Workaround
Use these steps to clear the incident alerts.
1. At the HAFM Hardware View, click the port module to open the Port Card
2. Right click on the port with the yellow triangle icon, and choose Clear Link
