705 Fewer Fibre Channel I/O ports operational.
Explanation
One or more Fibre Channel I/O ports that have previously been active are now inactive. This situation has continued for one minute.
A Fibre Channel I/O port might be established on either a Fibre Channel platform port or an Ethernet platform port using FCoE. This error is expected if the associated Fibre Channel or Ethernet port is not operational.
Data:
Three
numeric values are listed:
- The ID of the first unexpected inactive port. This ID is a decimal number.
- The ports that are expected to be active, which is a hexadecimal number. Each bit position represents a port, with the least significant bit representing port 1. The bit is 1 if the port is expected to be active.
- The ports that are actually active, which is a hexadecimal number. Each bit position represents a port, with the least significant bit representing port 1. The bit is 1 if the port is active.
User response
- If possible, use the management GUI to run the recommended actions for the associated service error code.
- Follow the procedure for mapping I/O ports to platform ports to determine which platform port is providing this I/O port.
- Check for any 704 (Fibre channel platform port not operational) or 724 (Ethernet platform port not operational) node errors reported for the platform port.
- Possibilities:
- If the port has been intentionally disconnected, use the management GUI recommended action for the service error code and acknowledge the intended change.
- Resolve the 704 or 724 error.
- If this is an FCoE connection, use the information the view gives about the Fibre Channel forwarder (FCF) to troubleshoot the connection between the port and the FCF.
Possible Cause-FRUs or other cause:
- Small form-factor pluggable (SFP) transceiver
- Node or node canister (system board on 2145-DH8 or 2145-SV1)
