Entry

Description

 

 

Total LIP received

Number of loop initialization primitive frames received.

 

 

LIP F7F7 count

A loop initialization primitive frame used to acquire an Arbitrated Loop Physical

 

Address (AL_PA).

 

 

LIP F8F7 count

Currently not used.

 

 

LIP F7AIPs count

This LIP is used to reinitialize the loop. An L_Port, identified by AL_PS, might

 

have noticed a performance degradation and is trying to restore the loop.

 

 

LIP F8AIPs Count

This LIP denotes a loop failure detected by the L_Port identified by AL_PS.

 

 

LIP AIPdAIPs Count

Number of F7, AL_PS LIPs, or AL_PD (vendor specific) resets, performed.

 

 

Class 2 In Frames

Number of class 2 frames received by this port.

 

 

Class 2 Out Frames

Number of class 2 frames transmitted by this port.

 

 

Class 2 Words In

Number of class 2 words received by this port.

 

 

Class 2 Words Out

Number of class 2 words transmitted by this port.

 

 

Class 3 In Frames

Number of class 3 frames received by this port.

 

 

Class 3 Out Frames

Number of class 3 frames transmitted by this port.

 

 

Class 3 Words In

Number of class 3 words received by this port.

 

 

Class 3 Words Out

Number of class 3 words transmitted by this port.

 

 

Decode Error Count

Number of invalid transmission words detected during decoding. Decoding is

 

from the 10-bit characters and special K characters.

 

 

Loss Of Sync Count

Number of synchronization losses (>100 ms) detected by this port. A loss of

 

synchronization is detected by receipt of an invalid transmission word.

 

 

Invalid CRC Count

Number of invalid CRC frames detected.

 

 

Tx Wait Count

Number of times the port entered a wait state because it was out of buffer-to-

 

buffer credits.

 

 

Class 3 Toss Count

Number of class 2 and class 3 sequences that were discarded by this port. A

 

sequence can be discarded because of detection of a missing frame (based on

 

SEQ_CNT), detection of an E_D_TOV timeout, receiving a reject frame,

 

receiving frames for a stopped sequence, or other causes.

 

 

FReject Count

Number of frames, from devices, that have been rejected. Frames can be

 

rejected for many reasons.

 

 

FBusy Count

Number of class 2 and class 3 fabric busy (F_BSY) frames generated by this port

 

in response to incoming frames. This usually indicates a busy condition on the

 

fabric or N_Port that is preventing delivery of this frame.

 

 

Link Failures

Number of optical link failures detected by this port. A link failure is a loss of

 

synchronization for a period of time greater than the value of R_T_TOV or by loss

 

of signal while not in the offline state. A loss of signal causes the switch module

 

to attempt to reestablish the link. If the link is not reestablished by the time

 

specified by R_T_TOV, a link failure is counted. A link reset is performed after a

 

link failure.

 

 

Primitive Sequence Errors

Number of bad primitives received by the port.

 

 

Rx Link Resets

Number of link reset primitives received from an attached device.
