Description
A link incident occurred on the port.
The status symbol displays in the Port
List View, Port Card View, and
Hardware View.
The director and the attached device
are performing a link reset operation
to recover the link connection.
Ordinarily, this is a transient state that
should not persist.
No signal (light) is being received on
the director port. This is a normal
condition when there is no cable
plugged into the port or when the
power of the device attached to the
other end of the link is off.
The director port is receiving the Fibre
Channel not operational sequence
(NOS) indicating that the attached
device is not operational.
The attached device has successfully
connected to the director and is ready
to communicate or is in the process of
communicating with other attached
devices. As long as the port remains in
the online state, the green port LED
remains illuminated. Note that on the
actual port in the unit, the green LED
blinks when there is active Fibre
Channel traffic through the port.
The director port was configured as
"blocked" and is transmitting the Fibre
Channel OLS to the attached device.
The director port was configured as
"Unblocked" and is receiving the Fibre
Channel OLS indicating that the
attached device is offline.
