Explanation
A Fibre Channel
port that was previously operational is no longer operational. The
physical link is down.
This node error
does not, in itself, stop the node canister becoming active in the
system. However, the Fibre Channel network might be being used to
communicate between the node canisters in a clustered system. Therefore,
it is possible that this node error indicates the reason why the critical
node error 550 A cluster cannot be formed because of
a lack of cluster resources is reported on the node
canister.
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.
- Possibilities:
- If the port has been intentionally disconnected, use the management GUI recommended
action for the service error code and acknowledge the intended change.
- Check that the Fibre Channel
cable is connected at both ends and is not damaged. If necessary,
replace the cable.
- Check the switch port or other
device that the cable is connected to is powered and enabled in a
compatible mode. Rectify any issue. The device service interface might
indicate the issue.
- Use the remove and replace procedures
to replace the SFP transceiver in
the Lenovo Storage V7000 and
the SFP transceiver in
the connected switch or device.
- As the adapter is located on the system board,
replace the node canister using the remove and replace procedures.
Possible Cause-FRUs or other cause:
- Fibre Channel cable
- SFP transceiver
- Node canister
