Message N_Port ID virtualization (NPIV) is not supported by fabric port connected to port
<port number>.
Message Type LOG
Severity ERROR
Probable Cause Indicates that the N_Port ID virtualization (NPIV) capability is not supported by the fabric port to which
the Access Gateway is connected.
Recommended
Action
Execute the portCfgNpivPort command to enable NPIV capability on the port connected to the
Access Gateway.
Some blades and ports in a switch may not support NPIV. NPIV functionality cannot be enabled
on such ports and they will not respond to NPIV requests. Refer to the Access Gateway
Administrator's Guide for specific AG-compatibility requirements.
On non-Brocade switches, refer to the manufacturer's documentation to determine whether
the switch supports NPIV and how to enable NPIV on these types of switches.
AG-1002
Message Unable to find alternate N_Port during failover for N_Port <port number>.
Message Type LOG
Severity WARNING
Probable Cause Indicates that no other N_Port is configured or the fabric was unstable during failover.
Recommended
Action
Check whether an alternate N_Port is configured using the portCfgShow command.
If the message persists, execute the supportFtp command (as needed) to set up automatic FTP
transfers; then execute the supportSave command and contact your switch service provider.
