pathInfo
--help
Displays the command usage.
When executed without operands, pathInfo runs interactively. Specifying a destination switch is required; the values
for the source and destination ports can be -1 to indicate the embedded port. You must specify the source and
destination PID to display the correct TI-enabled path information across the FCR. Reverse-path tracing is
optional. In addition, this command prompts for the following parameters:
Max hops
The maximum number of hops that the pathInfo frame is allowed to traverse; the default is
25.
Fabric Id
Specifies the Fabric ID. If unspecified, the value defaults to -1 (Default switch FID 128)
Domain|Wwn|Name
Specifies the domain ID or WWN.
Source port
Specifies the port whose path to the destination domain is traced, specified as the port
index. If unspecified, the value defaults to -1 (embedded port).
Destination port
Specifies the port on the destination switch for the path being traced. If unspecified, the
value defaults to -1 (embedded port)
Source pid
Specifies the source ID of the originator device in hexadecimal format.
Destination pid
Specifies the destination ID of the proxy device in hexadecimal format.
Basic stats
Whether basic statistics are generated on every link; the default is no.
Extended stats
Whether extended statistics are generated on every link; the default is no.
Trace reverse path
Specifies the path information in reverse direction; the default is no.
Source route
Specifies a sequence of switches or ports that the pathInfo frame should traverse; the
default is no. If an output port to the next hop is specified, you are not prompted for the
domain of the next switch. The domain is determined by the port.
Timeout
The maximum time allowed waiting for the response in milliseconds. The default is 10000
milliseconds.
