FW-1164
Message <timestamp>, [FW-1164], <sequence-number>,, INFO, <system-name>, <Port Name>,
<Label>, value has changed(High=<High value>, Low=<Low value>). Current value is
<Value> <Unit>.
Probable Cause Indicates that the number of synchronization losses that the port experiences has changed. Loss of
synchronization errors frequently occur due to a faulty small form-factor pluggable (SFP) or cable.
Signal losses often create synchronization losses.
Recommended
Action
Check both ends of your cable connection. Verify that the cable and small form-factor pluggables
(SFPs) are not faulty.
If you continue to experience synchronization loss errors, troubleshoot your host bus adaptor (HBA)
and contact your switch service provider.
Severity INFO
FW-1165
Message <timestamp>, [FW-1165], <sequence-number>,, INFO, <system-name>, <Port Name>,
<Label>, is below low boundary(High=<High value>, Low=<Low value>). Current value
is <Value> <Unit>.
Probable Cause Indicates that the number of synchronization losses that the port experiences has fallen below the
low boundary. Loss of synchronization errors frequently occur due to a faulty small form-factor
pluggable (SFP) or cable. Signal losses often create synchronization losses.
Recommended
Action
No action is required. Respond to this message as is appropriate to the particular policy of the
end-user installation. A low number of synchronization losses means that the switch is functioning
normally.
Severity INFO
FW-1166
Message <timestamp>, [FW-1166], <sequence-number>,, WARNING, <system-name>, <Port Name>,
<Label>, is above high boundary(High=<High value>, Low=<Low value>). Current value
is <Value> <Unit>.
Probable Cause Indicates that the number of synchronization losses that the port experiences has risen above the
high boundary. Loss-of-synchronization errors frequently occur due to a faulty small form-factor
pluggable (SFP) or cable. Signal losses often create synchronization losses.
Recommended
Action
Check both ends of your cable connection. Verify that the cable and small form-factor pluggables
(SFPs) are not faulty.
If you continue to experience loss-of-synchronization errors, troubleshoot your host bus adaptor
(HBA) and contact your switch service provider.
Severity WARNING
