Fabric OS Commands 1 This chapter lists the Fabric OS commands. It also shows their syntax and operands, and provides examples of their usage. Fabric OS Version 3.1.x/4.1.
Fabric OS Commands agtcfgDefault Reset the SNMP agent configuration to default values. Synopsis agtcfgDefault Availability AdminAdmin Release V3.1.x and V4.1.x Description Use this command to reset the configuration of the SNMP agent to default values. Note: In the StorageWorks Core switch, there is one SNMP agent per logical switch. This command is specific to the logical switch you are logged into. The following values are reset to default: 22 sysDescr The system description.
agtcfgDefault swEventTrapLevel The event trap level in conjunction with the event's severity level. When an event occurs and if its severity level is at or below the set value, the SNMP trap, swEventTrap, is sent to configured trap recipients. By default, this value is set at 0, implying that no swEventTrap is sent.
Fabric OS Commands There are six Access Control Lists (ACLs) to restrict SNMP get/set/trap operations to hosts under a host-subnet-area. Host-subnet-area is defined by comparing non-zero IP octets. For example, an ACL of “192.168.64.x” enables access for any hosts that start with the specified octets. The connecting host is enabled as “192.168.64.xx,” where xx is any number from 0 to99. All ACL entries also have a flag to set each host-subnet-area to be read-write or read-only.
agtcfgDefault SNMPv1 community and trap recipient configuration: Community 1: Secret C0de (rw) Trap recipient: 192.168.15.41 Community 2: OrigEquipMfr (rw) No trap recipient configured yet Community 3: private (rw) No trap recipient configured yet Community 4: public (ro) No trap recipient configured yet Community 5: common (ro) No trap recipient configured yet Community 6: FibreChannel (ro) No trap recipient configured yet SNMP access list configuration: Entry 0: Access host subnet area 192.168.64.
Fabric OS Commands agtcfgSet Modify the SNMP agent configuration. Synopsis agtcfgSet Availability Admin Release V3.1.x and V4.1.x Description Use this command to modify the configuration of the SNMP agent in the switch. Note: In the StorageWorks Core switch, there is one SNMP agent per logical switch. This command is specific to the logical switch you are logged into. Set the values for the following items: 26 sysDescr The system description. The default value is Fibre Channel Switch.
agtcfgSet swEventTrapLevel The event trap level in conjunction with the event's severity level. When an event occurs and if its severity level is at or below the set value, the SNMP trap, swEventTrap, is sent to configured trap recipients. By default, this value is set at 0, implying that no swEventTrap is sent.
Fabric OS Commands ACL entries also have a flag to set each host-subnet-area to be read-write or read-only. Highest privilege matched out of six entries is given to the access. An ACL check is turned off when all six entries contain “0.0.0.0.” Note: When secure mode is enabled, the Access Control List feature is incorporated into the WSNMP and RSNMP security policies. Community strings can be changed on the primary FCS switch only and will propagate changes across the fabric.
agtcfgSet Example To modify the SNMP configuration values in V3.1.x: switch:admin> agtcfgSet Customizing MIB-II system variables ... At each prompt, do one of the following: o to accept current value, o enter the appropriate new value, o to skip the rest of configuration, or o to cancel any change.
Fabric OS Commands To modify the SNMP configuration values in V4.1.x: switch:admin> agtcfgSet Customizing MIB-II system variables ... At each prompt, do one of the following: o to accept current value, o enter the appropriate new value, o to skip the rest of configuration, or o to cancel any change.

This test applies to single blade as well as multi-blade systems. The following items are tested: ■ Proper back-end port domain routing setup such that every user port has a valid path to every other user port.
backPort ■ ASIC errors along each path. The test will check for CRC and ENC errors for each port used between the source and destination ports to help isolate failures. It will also check that each member of every trunk group along the path has sent or received at least one frame. Note: Area routing between user ports is not tested. Operands This command has the following operands: -nframes num Specify the number of frame sequences to send. The default value is 100.
Fabric OS Commands -extonly enable Specify 1 to enable external test only mode. The default value is 0. This command normally sends bursts of frames from each port under test to every other port in the list. In extonly mode, backPort will send only one burst of frames to each port from each miniswitch to miniswitch link. This tests all of the external connections with only (K*N) frames instead of the N2 frames required in the all to all mode.

Synopsis: V3.1.x centralMemoryTest [passcount, datatype, dataseed] Synopsis: V4.1.x centralmemorytest [--slot number][-passcnt count][-datatype type][-ports itemlist][-seed value] Availability Admin Release V3.1.x and V4.1.x Description Use this command to execute an address and data bus verification of the ASIC SRAMs which serve as the Central Memory. Note: This command cannot be executed on an enabled switch.
Fabric OS Commands The test consists of 6 subtests: Subtest 1 The BISR subtest executes the Built-In-Self-Repair (BISR) circuitry in each ASIC. The BISR executes its own BIST, and cells found bad are replaced by redundant rows provided in each SRAM in the ASIC. Once replaced, the BIST is executed again. The firmware merely sets up the hardware for the BISR/BIST operation and checks the results. If the done bit in each SRAM is not set within a time-out period, it reports the DIAG-CMBISRTO.
centralMemoryTest ASIC #3: 0xfff9d389, 0xfff9d388, 0xfff9d387, ... ASIC #4: 0xfff8c609, 0xfff8c608, 0xfff8c607, ... For V4.1.x, the default pattern used (by POST also) is a QUAD_RAMP with a seed value of 0. Subtest 3 The ASIC-to-ASIC connection subtest verifies that any port can read the data from any of the ASICs in the switch; thus verifying both the logic transmitting and receiving the data and the physical transmit data paths on the main board connecting all the ASICs to each other.
Fabric OS Commands Subtest 4 The forced bad parity error subtest verifies that a bad parity can be detected, and that its error flag and interrupt bits are set. The test method is as follows: 1. Clear the error and interrupt bits of all ASICs. 2. Write 64 bytes with bad parity to all ASICs at offset 0. 3. Read each of the ASICs at offset 0 and check that the error and interrupt bits are set. 4. Repeat the steps above for offset 1, 2, 3, ... 10.
centralMemoryTest Subtest 6 The forced bad chip number error subtest verifies that the bad buffer number in the data packet can be detected, its error flag and interrupt bits are set. The test method is as follows: 1. Clear the error and interrupt bits of all ASICs. 2. Set up the hardware so that transmission of data includes a bad buffer number. 3. For each ASIC X in the switch, do: For each of the 11 possible offsets, do: a. Write a 64 byte pattern in the Central Memory. b.
Fabric OS Commands -ports ports Specify a set of ports to test. The data patterns are written into the ports specified and verified by reading from the ports. dataseed Specify the data pattern seed to be used. The default seed value is 0. Some data types, like BYTE_LFSR, do not require any seed value. --slot number (V4.1.x only) Specify the slot number that the diagnostic will operate on.

This value is automatically assigned by the fabric.
configure Sequence Level Switching When Sequence Level Switching is set to 1, frames of the same sequence from a particular source are transmitted together as a group. When this feature is set to 0, frames are transmitted interleaved among multiple sequences. Under normal conditions, Sequence Level Switching should be disabled for better performance. However, some host adapters have performance issues when receiving interleaved frames from multiple sequences.
Fabric OS Commands Core Switch PID Format (V3.1.x only) This is used to set the 256 port PID format that is used for core switches. This option enables single Domain port density higher than 16. VC Encoded Address Mode and Core Switch PID Format are mutually exclusive. They cannot both be enabled at the same time. All switches in the fabric must have this parameter set the same.

Fabric OS Commands The test method is as follows: 1. Determine which ports are connected to each other. 2. Enable ports for cabled loopback mode. 3. Create a frame F of maximum data size (2112 bytes). 4. Transmit frame F via port M. 5. Pick up the frame from its cross connected port N. Complain if port other than N actually received the frame. 6. Check if any of the 8 statistic error counters are non-zero: ENC_in, CRC_err, TruncFrm, FrmTooLong, BadEOF, Enc_out, BadOrdSet, DiscC3. 7.
crossPortTest V3.1.x: SwitchEnable and SwitchDisabled Mode / V4.1.x: SwitchOnline and SwitchOffline Mode The crossPortTest command can be executed when the switch is enabled/online or disabled/offline. In SwitchEnabled/SwitchOnline mode (where the switch is enabled prior to executing the crossPortTest command) only ports which are cable loopbacked to ports in the same switch are tested. Ports connected outside of the switch are ignored.
Fabric OS Commands V3.1.x: SFP Mode Use the setgbicmode command (setGBICMode) to activate SFP mode by executing the following command prior to executing the crossPortTest command: switch:admin> setgbicmode 1 When activated, only ports with SFPs present are tested by the crossporttest command. For example, if only port 0 and port 3 contain SFPs and the SFP mode is activated, the crossporttest command limits testing to port 0 and 3.
crossPortTest Since this test includes the media and the fiber cable in its test path, its results combined with the results of portloopbacktest and spinsilk can be used to determine which components of the switch are faulty. It is also possible to use various loopback modes 3 and 5 to further isolate failures, see to -lb_mode below. Operands This command has the following operands: passnum Specify the number of frames to send.
Fabric OS Commands -lb_mode mode Select the loopback point for the test. By default, crossporttest uses cable loopback as described above. However for debug purposes you can select other loopback modes as follows: 0 Cable Loopback. 1 Port Loopback (loopback plugs). 2 External (series) loopback. 3 Silkscreen loopback. 4 Serial link wrapback. 5 Internal (parallel) loopback. -spd_mode mode Select the speed mode for the test.
crossPortTest -gbic_mode mode The gbic_mode parameter may be used to override the global GBIC mode described above for the duration of this test. Specify 1 enable gbic_mode, and the testing is limited to user ports with GBICs or SFPs installed. -norestore mode Specify 1 to force the test to skip part of the post-test cleanup normally performed. This may be helpful during debug. This parameter should normally be left at the default value of 0. -ports itemlist Specify a list of user ports to test.

Synopsis: V3.1.x firmwareDownload [host, user, file [,passwd]] Synopsis: V4.1.x firmwareDownload [[-sbni] host,user,pfile [,passwd]] Availability Admin Release V3.1.x and V4.1.x Description: V3.1.x Use this command to download switch firmware from a remote host or from a local directory to the switch's non-volatile storage area. The firmware download process uses FTP. Note: V3.
Fabric OS Commands For the StorageWorks Core switch, each CP has two partitions of non-volatile storage. The firmwareDownload command will always load the image into the secondary partition and then will swap the secondary to be the new primary. After the system successfully boots up from this partition, run firmwareCommit to replicate the downloaded image in the primary partition to the secondary partition.
firmwareDownload Note: The default action in V4.1 is a full install instead of an incremental install. Operands This command has the following operands: host Specify a host server name or IP address; for example, “tower” or “11.22.33.44”.

spinFab The frames are continuously transmitted and received to all ports in parallel. The port LEDs flicker green rapidly while the test is running. While the frames are circulating, the RX frame count and port CRC and encoder error statistics are monitored and errors will be generated if a port stops or a low level error occurs. Every one million frames the circulating frames will be captured to verify that they are still circulating and that they are still in-order.
Fabric OS Commands Operands This command has the following operands: 770 nMillionFrames (V3.1.x only) Number of million frames to send. The test will progress until the specified number of frames has been transmitted on each port. The default value for nmill is 10, so the number of frames sent will be at least 10 million. The counting is not exact so the actual number of frames sent will tend to be slightly larger, particularly at 2-Gbps link speeds. ePortBeg (V3.1.
spinFab -setfail mode (V4.1.x only) This parameter may be used to cause spinfab to mark failing ports as bad. Specify a value 1 to mark failing ports as BAD, specify a value of 0 to not mark failed ports as bad. To minimize the impact on live fabrics this test normally logs errors but does not set the port status to FAILED. This parameter is provided to force the failing ports to be marked as BAD in the same manner as other diagnostics.
Fabric OS Commands Example In the following examples ports 0-3 are active ISL links. Port 4 is an F-Port so the test skips it (V3.1.x example): switch:admin> setdbg “DIAG”, 0 switch:admin> spinfab 3,0,4 spinFab running... spinFab: Completed 3 megs, status: passed. port 0 test status: 0x00000000 -- passed. port 1 test status: 0x00000000 -- passed. port 2 test status: 0x00000000 -- passed. port 3 test status: 0x00000000 -- passed.

Fabric and Switch Management 4 This chapter explains the different methods used to manage an HP StorageWorks SAN switch. In order to manage a switch, you must have access to one of the available management methods. ■ Overview, page 928 ■ User Access Level, page 929 ■ Fabric OS Command Line Interface, page 930 ■ Web Tools, page 931 ■ Fabric Manager, page 932 ■ Fabric Watch, page 934 ■ Fabric OS Access Layer (API), page 935 ■ Management Server, page 936 Fabric OS Version 3.1.x/4.1.
Fabric and Switch Management Overview The HP switch can be managed using several local and remote access methods. In order to manage a switch, you must have access to one of the following management methods: ■ Fabric OS command line interface ■ WebTools ■ Fabric Manager ■ Fabric Watch ■ Fabric OS Access Layer (API) ■ Management Server Telnet, SNMP and Web Tools require that the switch be accessible using a network connection.
Fabric and Switch Management User Access Level There are four levels of user access for the HP switch: ■ Root ■ Factory ■ Admin ■ User In Fabric OS V4.1.x, each user access level can have the following number of simultaneous sessions: Table 26: StorageWorks Core switch User Access Maximum Sessions User Name Maximum Number of Simultaneous Sessions Root 4 Factory 4 Admin 2 User 4 Web Tools 4 Note: In Fabric OS V3.1.x and earlier, multiple user access to a switch is limited.
Fabric and Switch Management Fabric OS Command Line Interface The Fabric OS command line interface (CLI) accessed through telnet or serial console provides the user with the full range of management capability on an HP switch. The Fabric OS CLI enables an administrator to monitor and manage entire fabrics, individual switches, and ports from a standard workstation. The entire suite of Fabric OS features and capabilities is available across an entire fabric, from a single access point.
Fabric and Switch Management Web Tools Web Tools provides a graphical interface that allows the administrator to monitor and manage entire fabrics and individual switches and ports from a standard workstation. It is an optionally licensed product that runs on Fabric OS. All switches in the fabric are displayed in the main window of Web Tools, including switches that do not have a Web Tools license.
Fabric and Switch Management Fabric Manager Fabric Manager provides a graphical interface that allows the administrator to monitor and manage an entire fabric from a standard workstation. Fabric Manager can be used to manage fabrics containing integrated Fabrics, in addition to individual HP switches. Fabric Manager provides high-level information about all switches in the fabric, launching the Web Tools application when more detailed information is required.
Fabric and Switch Management ■ Provides the ability to execute multi-fabric administration of Secure Fabric OS SANs through a single encrypted console. ■ Provides the ability to implement scalable SAN management tasks through functionality and tools that intelligently span 8 fabrics and 200 switches. ■ Provides the ability to monitor Inter Switch Links (ISLs) ■ Provides the ability to manage switch licenses ■ Provides the ability to perform Fabric Stamping Fabric OS Version 3.1.x/4.1.
Fabric and Switch Management Fabric Watch Fabric Watch software monitors the performance and status of Fibre Channel networks and HP switches, and can alert SAN managers when problems arise. The real-time alerts from Fabric Watch software help SAN managers solve problems before they become costly failures.
Fabric and Switch Management Fabric OS Access Layer (API) The Fabric OS Access Layer is an application programming interface (API) that enables any application to access critical information about an HP SAN. With Fabric Access, an application can query or control individual switches or the entire fabric.
Fabric and Switch Management Management Server The Management Server is a Fibre Channel native in-band management interface. This interface allows a SAN management application to retrieve and administer the fabric and interconnect elements such as switches, servers, and storage devices. This interface runs directly over Fibre Channel through the HBA. An ACL of WWN addresses determines which systems have access to the Management Server database.
Control Processor Commands 5 This chapter lists the commands that may be available, depending upon the Fabric OS version (V3.1.x or V4.1.x), when logged into the Active CP and Standby CP in a StorageWorks Core switch. Fabric OS Version 3.1.x/4.1.
Control Processor Commands Active CP Commands When you are logged into the Active CP, the full suite of commands are supported (subject to which license keys are installed). HP recommends that you log into a specific logical switch, when performing management functions, rather than the Active CP. This method guarantees that any commands you execute are run on the desired logical switch. When you open a telnet session to the Active CP IP Address, commands execute by default on logical switch 0.
Control Processor Commands Standby CP Commands The commands in Table 27 are supported when logged into the Standby CP. Table 27: StorageWorks Core switch Standby CP Commands Command Notes date Print/set the system date and time. errclear Clear error log. errDump Print error log with no page breaks. errnvlogsizeset Resize non-volatile (persistent) error log. errnvlogsizeshow Show persistent error log configuration. errsavelvlset Set error save level. errsavelvlshow Get error save level.
