Object Descriptions - HP StorageWorks 2/64 - Core Switch Command Reference Manual

• In the case of conflicting settings within a single item list, an error is generated, as described earlier. In
the case of multiple item list parameters, the last one on the command line overrides previous settings.
The exact type of list varies, depending on the test and the parameter; however, the most common are
blade ports and user ports. A list of blade ports is most commonly used by ASIC-level tests such as
or
cmiTest turboRamTest
parameter) are tested. A list of user ports is used by the higher-level tests, such as spinSilk or
crossPortTest, to specify which user-accessible external ports within the current switch (selected during
telnet login) are tested. When specified in an item list, user ports might be specified by either the area
portion of the ports Fibre Channel address or with slot/port notation. For nonblade systems, the port
number on the silkscreen is the area number, so the two notations are identical.
The exact type of list required for any input parameter might be determined with the diagCommandShow
command. For item list parameters, the parameter type is PT_LIST and the list type is one of those shown in
Table 15.
