374 Fabric OS Message Reference

SEC-1170
63
SEC-1170
Message <timestamp>, [SEC-1170], <sequence-number>,, INFO, <system-name>, This command
must be executed on the Primary FCS switch, the first reachable switch in the FCS
list.
Probable Cause Indicates that there has been a corruption during the distribution of the security database. This can
only occur when the primary fabric configurations server (FCS) is distributing the security database
to the other switches in the fabric and local validation finds that there is an error in the security
database. This is a rare occurrence.
Recommended
Action
Run the secFabricShow command to verify that the fabric is still consistent. All the switches should
be in the ready state. If a switch is in the error state, the database might not be correctly updated
for that specific switch.
Severity INFO
SEC-1171
Message <timestamp>, [SEC-1171], <sequence-number>,, ERROR, <system-name>, Disabled
secure mode due to invalid security object.
Probable Cause Indicates that the switch is segmented, and secure mode is disabled on the switch because there
was no license present or no public key infrastructure (PKI) objects.
Recommended
Action
Run the pkiShow command to check if all PKI objects exist. If they do not exit, run the pkiCreate
command to create them for the switch.
Run the licenseAdd command to install the required license key. Refer to your switch supplier to
obtain a license if you do not have one.
Severity ERROR
SEC-1172
Message <timestamp>, [SEC-1172], <sequence-number>,, ERROR, <system-name>, Failed to
identify role.
Probable Cause Indicates that the switch is unable to determine its role (primary FCS or backup FCS) in the secure
fabric.
Recommended
Action
Verify that all switches in the fabric are in time synchronization with the primary and that no
external entity is trying to access the fabric. When verification is complete, retry the operation.
Severity ERROR
