Beaconing is enabled for the port.

1. Consult the customer and next level of support to determine the reason port

beaconing is enabled.

2. Disable port beaconing.

a. At the Hardware View, right-click the port graphic. A menu displays.

b. Click Enable Beaconing. The check mark disappears from the box

adjacent to the option, and port beaconing is disabled.

Was port beaconing enabled because port failure or degradation was suspected?

YES NO

↓ The director is operational. Exit MAP.

Go to step 1.

The eight-byte (16-digit) worldwide name (WWN) entered to configure port

binding is not valid or a nickname was used that is not configured for the attached

device in the Element Manager.

At the Hardware View, click Node List. The Node List dialog box displays. Note

the Port WWN column. This is the WWN assigned to the port or Fibre Channel

interface installed on the attached device.

■ If a nickname is not assigned to the WWN, the WWN is prefixed by the

device manufacturer name.

■ If a nickname is assigned to the WWN, the nickname displays in place of the

WWN.

The bound WWN must be entered in the form of a raw WWN format

(XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX) or must be a valid nickname. Ensure a valid

WWN or nickname is entered.

Did configuring the WWN or nickname solve the problem?

NO YES

↓ The director is operational. Exit MAP.
