Administrative Features

Real-Time Clock

The Topspin 270/Cisco SFS 7008 maintains correct time regardless of power conditions or connectivity.

Latency

The Topspin 270/Cisco SFS 7008 has port to port latency of less than 600ns.

Non-Volatile Memory

The memory supports up to:

•three stored system images (not including recovery image)

•one week of log files at normal verbosity; and one day of log files at maximum verbosity

Vital Product Data Storage

Vital Product Data (VPD) is stored in non-volatile memory in the Chassis ID module (refer to “Chassis ID Module” on page 19) and the Fabric Controller that is installed in the Core slot (refer to “Fabric Controller Modules” on page 18), and is available electronically. Some VPD info can be accessed via CLI, the Java GUI, or the Web GUI.

The following Vital Product Data can be recovered by returning a Field Replaceable Unit to the original manufacturer. Note: This requires the appropriate support contract.

•Power on hours

•Manufacturing part number

•Serial number

•Final test date

•Card ID

•Failure code

•Failure date

•Operation status

•Failure log

•OEM part number

Diagnostics

Refer to “About Diagnostic Tests” on page 91 for more detailed information.

The following tests are run to determine operational status:

•Power On Self Test (POST) is performed on all system components during power on to determine operational readiness.

•Redundant components' operational status is ensured periodically during normal operation, including the logic required to perform the transition from faulted/primary to redundant component. Detection of abnormal status is reported.
