PHY Link Error Status Block Information

 

 

 

 

 

SATA AAMUX PHY ERRORS

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

H-RX

 

The number of SATA FIS CRC errors received on the host port of the AAMUX

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

H-TX

 

The number of SATA R_ERR primitives received on the host port indicating a problem

 

 

 

 

with the transmitter of the AAMUX

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

H-Link

 

The number of times the PHY has lost link on the host port.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

H-Disp

 

The number of frame errors for the host port of the AAMUX. These include: code error,

 

 

 

 

disparity error, or realignment

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

O-RX

 

The number of SATA FIS CRC errors received on the other host port of the AAMUX

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

O-TX

 

The number of SATA R_ERR primitives received on the other host port indicating a

 

 

 

 

problem with the transmitter of the AAMUX

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

O-Link

 

The number of times the PHY has lost link on the other host port.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

O-Disp

 

The number of frame errors for the other host port of the AAMUX. These include: code

 

 

 

 

error, disparity error, or realignment.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

D-RX

 

The number of SATA FIS CRC errors received on the device port of the AAMUX

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

D-TX

 

The number of SATA R_ERR primitives received on the device port indicating a problem

 

 

 

 

with the transmitter of the AAMUX.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

D-Link

 

The number of times the PHY has lost link on the device port.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

D-Disp

 

The number of frame errors for the device port of the AAMUX. These include: code error,

 

 

 

 

disparity error, or realignment.

 

 

 

 

 

 

SAS PHY ERRORS

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

InvDW

 

Invalid DWORD Count - The number of invalid dwords received outside of the PHY

 

 

 

 

reset sequence.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

RunDis

 

Running disparity Count - The number of dwords containing running disparity errors

 

 

 

 

received outside of the PHY reset sequence

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

LDWSYN

 

Loss of DWORD synchronization count - The number of times the PHY has lost

 

 

 

 

synchronization and restarted the link reset sequence

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

PHYRES

 

PHY Reset Problem count - The number of times the PHY reset sequence has failed.

 

 

 

 

 

 

NOTE : SATA drives have an Active/Active MUX (AAMUX) installed. Error counts are read directly from the AAMUX.
