Responding to a system message

This section provides procedures on gathering information on system messages.

Looking up a system message

Messages in this manual are arranged alphabetically by Module ID, and then numerically within a

given module. To look up a message, copy down the module (see Table 6) and the error code and

compare this with the Table of Contents or look up lists to determine the location of the information

for that message.

The following information is provided for each message:

• Module and code name for the error

• Message text

• Message type

• Class (for Audit messages only)

• Message severity

• Probable cause

• Recommended action

Gathering information about the problem

Questions to ask yourself when troubleshooting a system message are as follows:

• What is the current Fabric OS level?

• What is the switch hardware version?

• Is the switch operational?

• Assess impact and urgency:

- Is the switch down?

- Is it a standalone switch?

- How large is the fabric?

- Is the fabric redundant?

• Execute the errDump command on each logical switch.

• Execute the supportFtp command (as needed) to set up automatic FTP transfers, and then run

the supportSave command.
