AG System Messages
AG-1001
Message <timestamp>, [AG-1001], <sequence-number>,, ERROR, <system-name>, N_Port ID
virtualization (NPIV) is not supported by fabric port connected to port <port>.
Probable Cause Indicates that the N_Port ID virtualization (NPIV) capability is not supported by the fabric port to
which the Access Gateway is connected.
Recommended
Action
On switches running Fabric OS 6.0.0 or earlier versions, execute the portCfgNpivPort
command to enable NPIV capability on the port connected to the Access Gateway.
Some blades and ports in a switch may not support NPIV. NPIV functionality cannot be enabled
on such ports and they will not respond to NPIV requests. Refer to the Access Gateway
Administrator Guide, Appendix B, for specific AG-compatibility requirements.
On non-Brocade switches, refer to the manufacturer's documentation to determine whether
the switch supports NPIV and how to enable NPIV on these types of switches.
Severity ERROR
AG-1002
Message <timestamp>, [AG-1002], <sequence-number>,, WARNING, <system-name>, Unable to
find alternate N_Port during failover for N_Port
<port>.
Probable Cause Indicates that no other N_Port is configured or the fabric was unstable during failover.
Recommended
Action
Check whether or not an alternate N_Port is configured.
If the message persists, run the supportFtp command (as needed) to set up automatic FTP
transfers; then run the supportSave command and contact your switch service provider.
Severity WARNING
AG-1003
Message <timestamp>, [AG-1003], <sequence-number>,, WARNING, <system-name>, Unable to
failover N_Port <port>. Failover across different fabrics is not supported.
Probable Cause Indicates that the failover does not get blocked between two fabrics, although it is not a supported
configuration.
