Chapter 2 System Messages and Recovery Procedures for the Cisco MDS 9000 Family
Introduced Cisco MDS SAN-OS Release 1.3(1).
Error Message SVC-3-NODE_ERR_MSG: (SVC [dec]/[dec] SS_EID_VL_ER_IO_TIMEOUT_OVERALL
) Timeout due to excessive processing time [chars].
Explanation
A managed disk has timed out. This error has been reported because a large number of
disk timeout conditions have been detected. The problem is probably caused by a failure of some
other component on the SAN.
Recommended Action 1. Repair problems on all disk controllers and switches on the same SAN as
this cluster. 2. If problems are found, mark this error as fixed. 3. If no switch or disk controller
failures can be found, take an error log dump and call your customer support representative.
Introduced Cisco MDS SAN-OS Release 1.3(1).
Error Message SVC-3-NODE_ERR_MSG: (SVC [dec]/[dec]
SS_EID_VL_ER_LOCAL_PORT_EXCLUDED ) Local FC port excluded [chars].
Explanation
A local Fibre Channel port has been excluded.
Recommended Action 1. Repair the Fibre Channel network fabric. 2. Check the status of the disk
controller. If all disk controllers show good status, mark the error you have just repaired fixed. 3. If
the error persists and no other cause can be determined, replace the Caching Services Module.
Introduced Cisco MDS SAN-OS Release 1.3(1).
Error Message SVC-3-NODE_ERR_MSG: (SVC [dec]/[dec] SS_EID_VL_ER_LOGIN_EXCLUDED )
Login excluded [chars].
Explanation
Login has been excluded.
Recommended Action 1. In the sequence shown, exchange the field-replaceable units (FRUs) for new
FRUs: Fibre Channel cable, switch to remote port. 2. Start a cluster discovery operation to recover
the login. 3. Check the status of the disk controller. If all disk controllers show a good status, mark
the error you have just repaired fixed. 4. If the error persists and no other cause can be determined,
replace the Caching Services Module.
Introduced Cisco MDS SAN-OS Release 1.3(1).
Error Message SVC-3-NODE_ERR_MSG: (SVC [dec]/[dec]
SS_EID_VL_ER_LUN_RESOURCE_RAN_OUT ) Too many LUNs were presented to a node
[chars].
Explanation
The configuration is not valid. Too many devices have been presented to the cluster or
node.
Recommended Action 1. Remove unwanted devices from the Fibre Channel network fabric. 2. Start
a cluster discovery operation to find devices. 3. List all connected managed disks. Check that the
configuration is as expected. Mark the error you have just repaired fixed.
