Cmitest - HP StorageWorks 2/64 - Core Switch Command Reference Manual

cmiTest

Verifies the control message interface (CMI) bus between ASICs.
Synopsis
cmitest [--slot slotnumber][-passcnt count][-txports itemlist][-rxports
itemlist][-skip mask]
Availability
admin
Description
Use this command to test:
• Multiplexed 4-bit CMI point-to-point connection between two ASICs.
Message sent with a bad checksum sets the error and interrupt bits of the destination ASIC.
•
• Message sent with a good checksum does not set any error or interrupt bit in any ASIC pair.
The CMI is used to send transmission requests or completion messages between the ASIC transmitter and
receiver.
NOTE: This command is not supported on the 4/16 SAN Switch, SAN Switch 4/32 and 4/256 SAN
Director, which use the Condor ASIC.
