neighbor switch has sent an invalid sized payload.
Recommended
Action
Investigate the neighbor switch for problems. Run the errShow command on the neighbor switch to
view the error log for additional messages.
Check for a faulty cable or deteriorated SFP. Replace the cable or SFP if necessary.
Run the portLogDumpPort command on both the receiving and transmitting ports.

Message
Probable
Cause
Indicates that the information unit response was invalid for the specified command sent. The fabric
received an unknown response. This message is rare and usually indicates a problem with the Fabric OS
kernel.
Recommended
Action
If this message is due to a one-time event because of the incoming data, the system will discard the
frame. If it is due to problems with the kernel, the system will recover by performing a failover.
If the message persists, run supportFtp (as needed) to set up automatic FTP transfers; then run the
supportSave command and contact your switch service provider.
