Do not run D_Port tests on more than eight links at a time for normal (not long distance) links on FC16-64 blade.
On a FC 16-64 blade, do not enable the On-Demand D_Port with bladeInsert or slotPowerOn.
Run D_Port test on one link at a time for 100 Km long distance ports on FC 16-64 blade. D_Port tests on other
long distance links must be started only after the D_Port test completes on the previous long distance link.
Operands This command has the following operands:
slot
On bladed systems only, specifies the slot number of the ports to be configured, followed
by a slash (/).
port_list
Specifies one or more ports, relative to the slot on bladed systems. Use switchShow for a
listing of valid ports. A port list should be enclosed in double quotation marks and can
consist of the following:
• A single port, for example, "8" or "5/8" on blades systems.
• A port range where beginning and end port are separated by a dash, for example,
"8-13" or "5/8-13" on blades systems. A port range cannot span multiple slots.
• A set of ports separated by commas, for example "3,5,7,8" or "5/3,5,7,8" on bladed
systems.
• A wildcard * indicates all ports. The wildcard can be represented as '*' or "*".
