Programming with correct coding helps to make correct recognition and make connections workable. In this case Optical Modules must be coded with FC speed in code and Ethernet disabled. One option could be that modules have wrong speed settings in them, they are not configured for Fibre Channel speeds but for Ethernet, but to perfectly understand the cause need to analyse the coding. So you've hit a situation where a Fibre Channel link light has gone out and you don't know what is wrong. On all other platforms, only eth0 is supported. sfpshow - fault-finding on Brocade Fibre Channel Switches. Key problem why such alarms happen is due to wrongly coded SFP`s which are installed in Brocade 300 ports. On the CP of a Brocade DCX or DCX-S4, this command supports eth0 and eth3 as interface parameters. Check if the SFP is valid for the configuration.Īs well when we look on particular port we see following alarm:Īdditional Port Info Speed Mismatch / Incompatible SFPĪs a result Brocade 300 put Port Status into Mod_Inv state and port Health is reported as Faulty (link cannot be established).

We are installing 8G Fibre Channel transceivers into Brocade 300 SAN switch and receive the following error:įaulted due to SFP validation failure.
#Brocade san switch health check commands serial number
I try with 'chassisshow' but, this show the factory serial number (11 characters), I need 12 character serial number. Some switches like Cisco, Hpe, Brocade will offer CLI (Command-Line Interface) reference for users to view SFP modules DDM/DOM information, which includes. Fabric OS: v5.0.0 I need to obtain serial number by command.
Brocade 300 series switches are widely used in datacentres to establish 1, 2, 4Gbps and 8Gbps Fibre Channel connections. I have Brocade 4Gb SAN Switch for HP p-Class BladeSystem.
