Probable Cause
Port is connected to itself (self-loopback). This port M-to-port-M connection is
not allowed by the test. This message usually indicates improper cable
connections. This message is generated by the spinsilk command, if problems
are found.
Recommended Action
Reconnect port (M) to a different port (N) and reexecute the test.
Severity
Critical
Message
Critical DIAG-PORTSTOPPED, 1
Probable Cause
Port is no longer transmitting, as indicated by the Number Of Frames Transmitted
counter being stuck at N frames. This can be caused by a faulty cable or
deteriorated SFP. It can also indicate deeper problems in the motherboard or
ASIC. This message is generated by the spinsilk command, if problems are
found.
Recommended Action
Check for a faulty cable or deteriorated SFP. Replace the cable or SFP if
necessary.
If the problem persists:
For the SAN Switch 2/16, replace the motherboard FRU.
For the SAN Switch 2/8, you must replace the entire switch.
