• The cable is bad.
• The switch port is bad (if the adapter is connected to a
switch). Note that if a switch port is bad, and (for some
reason) you cannot use a different port on the switch, you
must replace the entire HP Fabric Clustering System

power off and then back on.

remote node (in a node-to-node configuration).
