FC troubleshooting
NOTE
FC troubleshooting is only available for Fabric OS devices.
You can perform the following operations using FC troubleshooting:
• Trace Route (Path Information and FC Ping) – Use to obtain the detailed routing information for
any two selected device ports. The devices can exist in the same fabric or in two different
fabrics shared through FC Routers.
• Device Connectivity Troubleshooting – Use to identify any problems that might be preventing
communication between the two selected device ports. The device ports can be selected from
the same fabric or from two different fabrics.
• Fabric Device Sharing Diagnosis (pure Fabric OS fabrics only) – Use to confirm that any two or
more selected fabrics are capable of sharing devices between them.
