Property Definitions
Definitions of the properties for which statistical information is reported appears in
the list below.
TimeLastReset – Time in minutes since the system has been running.
FramesSent – Number of frames sent since last reset.
FramesReceived – Number of frames received since last reset.
WordsSent – Number of words sent since last reset.
WordsReceived – Number of words received since last reset.
LIPCount – Loop Initialization Primitive Sequence. This primitive sequence
applies only to the arbitrated loop topology. It is transmitted by an L_Port to
initialize or re-initialize the loop.
NOSCount – Not Operational Primitive Sequence. This primitive sequence
is used during link initialization between two N_Ports in the point-to-point
topology or an N_Port and an F_Port in the fabric topology.
NOS is sent to indicate that the transmitting port has detected a link failure or
is offline. The expected response to a port sending NOS is the OLS primitive
sequence.
ErrorFrames – FC devices propagate handshake signals back-and-forth
requesting and acknowledging each byte transferred. FC transfers occur in
one frame of data at a time. In this case, the value reflects the number of
frames with errors.
DumpedFrames – This field specifies the number of frames dumped due to
a lack of host buffers.
LinkFailureCount – Number of times the link has failed. Can be caused by
a disconnected link or a bad fiber element.
LossSyncCount – Number of times a loss of sync has occurred since last
reset.
PrimitiveSeqErrorCount – An ordered set transmitted repeatedly and used
to establish and maintain a link.
LR, LRR, NOS, and OLS are primitive sequences used to establish an active
link in a connection between two N_Ports or an N_Port and an F_Port.
