706 Fibre Channel clustered system path failure.
Explanation
One or more Fibre Channel (FC) input/output (I/O) ports that have previously been able to see all required online node canisters can no longer see them. This situation has continued for 5 minutes. This error is not reported unless a node is active in a clustered system.
A Fibre Channel I/O port might be established on either a FC platform port or an Ethernet platform port using Fiber Channel over Ethernet (FCoE).
Data:
Three numeric values are listed:
- The ID of the first FC I/O port that does not have connectivity. This is a decimal number.
- The ports that are expected to have connections. This is a hexadecimal number, and each bit position represents a port - with the least significant bit representing port 1. The bit is 1 if the port is expected to have a connection to all online node canisters.
- The ports that actually have connections. This is a hexadecimal number, each bit position represents a port, with the least significant bit representing port 1. The bit is 1 if the port has a connection to all online nodes.
User response
- If possible, this noncritical node error should be serviced using the management GUI and running the recommended actions for the service error code.
- Follow the procedure: Mapping I/O ports to platform ports to determine which platform port does not have connectivity.
- There are a number of possibilities.
- If the port’s connectivity has been intentionally reconfigured, use the management GUI recommended action for the service error code and acknowledge the intended change.
- Resolve other node errors relating to this platform port or I/O port.
- Check that the SAN zoning is correct.
Possible Cause: FRUs or other cause:
- None.
