MIC Connectivity Test Identifies the type of test to run:
• Int-Loop — Internal loopback. Uses the MIC’s internal loopback
capability to verify MIC operation in the local system.
• Ext-Loop — External loopback. Similar to the internal loopback
capability, but requires a fiber connection between the two ports.
Consequently, it also verifies the fiber segments and external
connectors.
• Client — Performs all available tests on both ports. At least one system
connected to port 1 or port 2 must be in Server mode. In this mode, all
ports and paths can be verified simultaneously, for example, if both
CEs are in Client mode, and both IOPs are in Server mode.
• Server — Places both ports in Server mode in order to make them
capable of responding to test requests from systems in client mode.
• Disabled — Indicates that all adapter connectivity tests are disabled.
Consequently, no tests will run.
Connectivity Test Duration Indicates the duration of the adapter connectivity test you perform:
• Ten minutes
• 1 hour (the default)
• 3 hours
• Forever – a test that runs until stopped
Note: The durations of the adapter connectivity test listed above are a good
approximation. The actual durations may vary, depending on your
server’s configuration.
