Fabric OS 5.0.0 diagnostics and system error messages reference guide 191
FW-1338
Message
Probable cause
The number of DCC violations rose above the high boundary.
DCC violations indicate that an unauthorized device tried to join the fabric. The DCC_POLICY allows for
the specification of rules for binding device ports (typically HBA ports) to specific switch ports. DCC
policies ensure that whenever a device performs a fabric login (FLOGI) request that the WWN specified
in the FLOGI is validated to be connected to the authorized port. Enforcement for private loop devices not
performing FLOGI is done through the Name Server.
Recommended action
Run the errShow command to determine the device WWN, switch WWN, and switch port. Responses
to security-class messages depend on user policies. Consult your security administrator for response
strategies and policies.
