SS_EID_VL_ER_DEVICE_PORT_LOGIN_LOSS ) Number of controller logins reduced
[chars].
Explanation
The number of controller logins has been reduced. One possible cause is that the user
intentionally reconfigured the system.
Recommended Action 1. Check whether the controller has regained connectivity. If it has not, check
the cable connection to the remote-device port. 2. If all logins to a remote-device port have failed
and you cannot solve the problem by changing cables, check the condition of the remote-device port
and the condition of the remote device. 3. Start a cluster discovery operation. 4. Check the status of
the disk controller. If all disk controllers show a good status, mark the error you have just repaired
as fixed.
Introduced Cisco MDS SAN-OS Release 1.3(1).
