Operands

--fcping

Determines the basic connectivity between two Fibre Channel network points

 

 

and monitors and measures network latency.

 

port_id

Specifies the ID of the port to which you want to issue a ping command.

 

rpwwn

Specifies the remote port world wide name to which you want to issue a ping

 

 

command.

 

-l lpwwn

Specifies the logical port world wide name. This is an optional argument. The

 

 

base port is specified as 0; otherwise, the port is a virtual port.

 

--fctraceroute

Reports on a SAN path, including node hops and latency data.

 

port_id

Specifies the ID of the port on which you want to run the fctraceroute

 

 

command.

 

rpwwn

Specifies the remote port world wide name.

 

-l lpwwn

Specifies the logical port world wide name. This is an optional argument. The

 

 

base port is specified as 0; otherwise, the port is a virtual port.

 

--fcecho

Sends an FC Echo Extended Link Services (ELS) request to a remote port.

 

port_id

Specifies the ID of the port from which you want to run the fcecho command.

 

rpwwn

Specifies the remote port world wide name on which you want to run the

 

 

fcecho diagnostic test.

 

-l lpwwn

Specifies the logical port world wide name. This is an optional argument. The

 

 

base port is specified as 0; otherwise, the port is a virtual port.

 

--linkbeacon

Blinks (toggles) the link beacon.

 

port_id

Specifies the ID of the port for which you want to run the linkbeacon

 

 

command.

 

on off
