Getting technical help
Contact your switch support supplier for hardware, firmware, and software support, including
product repairs and part ordering. To expedite your call, have the following information available:
1. General Information
•Switch model
•Switch operating system version
•Software name and software version, if applicable
•Error numbers and messages received
•supportSave command output
•Detailed description of the problem, including the switch or fabric behavior immediately
following the problem, and specific questions
•Description of any troubleshooting steps already performed and the results
•Serial console and Telnet session logs
•syslog message logs
2. Switch Serial Number
The switch serial number and corresponding bar code are provided on the serial number label,
as illustrated below.
The serial number label is located as follows:
•Brocade 300, 5100, 5300, 6505, 6510, 6520, 7800, 8000, VA-40FC, and Brocade
Encryption Switch—On the switch ID pull-out tab located inside the chassis on the port side
on the left.
•Brocade 5410, 5424, 5430, 5450, 5460, 5470, 5480—Serial number label attached to
the module.
•Brocade DCX and DCX 8510-8—On the port side of the chassis, on the lower right side and
directly above the cable management comb.
•Brocade DCX-4S and DCX 8510-4—On the non-port side of the chassis, on the lower left
side.
3. World Wide Name (WWN)
Use the licenseIdShow command to display the WWN of the chassis.
Fabric OS Message Reference xxi
53-1002749-01
If you cannot use the licenseIdShow command because the switch is inoperable, you can get
the WWN from the same place as the serial number, except for the Brocade DCX. For the
Brocade DCX, access the numbers on the WWN cards by removing the Brocade logo plate at
the top of the non-port side of the chassis.

Overview of system messages
This guide supports Fabric OS v7.1.0 and documents system messages that can help you diagnose
and fix problems with a switch or fabric. The messages are organized alphabetically by module
name. A module is a subsystem in the Fabric OS. Each module generates a set of numbered
messages. For each message, this guide provides message text, probable cause, recommended
action, and severity level. There may be more than one cause and more than one recommended
action for any given message. This guide discusses the most probable cause and typical action
recommended.
System message types
Fabric OS supports three types of system messages. A system message can be of one or more of
the following types:
•RASLog messages
•Audit log messages
•FFDC messages
Fabric OS supports a different methodology for storing and accessing each type of message.

Overview of system messages

RASLog messages
RASLog messages report significant system events (failure, error, or critical conditions) or
information and are also used to show the status of the high-level user-initiated actions. RASLog
messages are forwarded to the console, to the configured syslog servers, and to the SNMP
management station through the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) traps or informs.
The following is an example of a RASLog system message.
2012/10/25-17:51:05, [C3-1001], 937, CHASSIS, ERROR, switch, Port 18 failed due to
SFP validation failure. Check if the SFP is valid for the configuration.
For information on displaying and clearing the RASLog messages, refer to “Displaying system
message logs and attributes” on page 17.
Audit log messages
Event auditing is designed to support post-event audits and problem determination based on
high-frequency events of certain types such as security violations, zoning configuration changes,
firmware downloads, and certain types of fabric events. Audit messages flagged as AUDIT are not
saved in the switch error logs. The switch can be configured to stream Audit messages to the switch
console and to forward the messages to specified syslog servers. The Audit log messages are not
forwarded to an SNMP management station. There is no limit to the number of audit events.
The following is an example of an Audit message.
0 AUDIT, 2012/10/14-06:07:33 (UTC), [SULB-1003], INFO, FIRMWARE,
admin/admin/192.0.2.2/telnet/CLI ad_0/switch, , Firmwarecommit has started.
For any given event, Audit messages capture the following information:
•User Name - The name of the user who triggered the action.
•User Role - The access level of the user, such as root or admin.
•Event Name - The name of the event that occurred.
•Event Information - Information about the event.
The seven event classes described in Table 1 can be audited.
TABLE 1 Event classes
Operand Event class Description
1 Zone You can audit zone event configuration changes, but not the actual
values that were changed. For example, you may receive a message
that states “Zone configuration has changed,” but the message
does not display the actual values that were changed.
2 Security You can audit any user-initiated security event for all management
interfaces. For events that have an impact on the entire fabric, an
audit is only generated for the switch from which the event was
initiated.
3 Configuration You can audit configuration downloads of existing SNMP
configuration parameters. Configuration uploads are not audited.
4 Firmware You can audit configuration downloads of existing SNMP
configuration parameters. Configuration uploads are not audited.
5 Fabric You can audit Administration Domain-related changes.
Fabric OS Message Reference 3
53-1002749-01
Overview of system messages 1
Fabric OS v7.1.0 generates component-specific Audit messages.
Event auditing is a configurable feature, which is by default disabled. You must enable event
auditing using the auditCfg --enable command to send the events to a configured remote host.
Syslogd must be configured for logging audit messages. You can set up filters to screen out
particular classes of events using the auditCfg command. The defined set of Audit messages is
sent to the configured remote host in the Audit message format, so that they are easily
distinguishable from other syslog events that may occur in the network. For details on how to
configure event auditing, refer to “Configuring event auditing” on page 15.
FFDC messages
First Failure Data Capture (FFDC) is used to capture failure-specific data when a problem or failure
is noted for the first time and before the switch reboots, or trace and log buffer get wrapped. All
subsequent iterations of the same error are ignored. This critical debug information is saved in
nonvolatile storage and can be retrieved using the supportSave command. The FFDC data is used
for debugging or analyzing the problem. FFDC is intended for use by Brocade technical support.
FFDC is enabled by default. Execute the supportFfdc command to enable or disable FFDC. If FFDC
is disabled, the FFDC daemon does not capture any data, even when a message with an FFDC
attribute is logged.
The following is an example of the FFDC message.
2000/12/17-08:30:13, [SS-1000], 88, SLOT 6 | FFDC | CHASSIS, INFO, DCX,
supportSave has uploaded support information to the host with IP address
192.0.2.2.
Message severity levels
Table 2 shows the four levels of severity for system messages, ranging from CRITICAL (1) to INFO
(4). In general, the definitions are wide ranging and are to be used as general guidelines for
troubleshooting. For all cases, you must look at each specific error message description thoroughly
before taking action.
6 FW You can audit Fabric Watch (FW)-related changes.
7 LS You can audit Virtual Fabric (Logical Switch)-related changes.
8 CLI You can audit the CLI commands executed on the switch.
N/A RAS Used to audit or track the RASLog messages or modules that are
enabled or disabled using the rasAdmin command.
NOTE: The RAS class is not configurable, and it is always enabled
internally.

Overview of system messages

System error message logging
The RASLog service generates and stores messages related to abnormal or erroneous system
behavior. It includes the following features:
•All RASLog error messages are saved to nonvolatile storage by default.
•The system error message log can save a maximum of 1024 messages in random access
memory (RAM).
•The system message log is implemented as a circular buffer. When more than the maximum
entries are added to the log file, old entries are overwritten by new entries.
•Messages are numbered sequentially from 1 to 2,147,483,647 (0x7ffffff). The sequence
number will continue to increase beyond the storage limit of 1024 messages. The sequence
number can be reset to 1 using the errClear command. The sequence number is persistent
across power cycles and switch reboots.
•Trace dump, FFDC, and core dump files can be uploaded to the FTP server using the
supportSave command.
•Brocade recommends that you configure the syslogd facility as a management tool for error
logs. This is particularly important for dual-domain switches because the syslogd facility saves
messages from two logical switches as a single file and in sequential order. For more
information, refer to “System logging daemon” on page 5.
•RASLog messages are streamed to the console, and are forwarded to the configured syslog
servers and to the SNMP management station through the SNMP traps (in SNMPv1 and
SNMPv3) or informs (in SNMPv3). Use the snmpConfig command to configure the SNMPv1
and SNMPv3 hosts and their configurations.
•Audit messages are streamed to the switch console, and are forwarded to the configured
syslog servers. The Audit log messages are not forwarded to an SNMP management station.
TABLE 2 Severity levels of a message
Severity level Description
1 = CRITICAL Critical-level messages indicate that the software has detected serious problems that
will cause a partial or complete failure of a subsystem if not corrected immediately; for
example, a power supply failure or rise in temperature must receive immediate
attention.
2 = ERROR Error-level messages represent an error condition that does not impact overall system
functionality significantly. For example, error-level messages might indicate time-outs
on certain operations, failures of certain operations after retries, invalid parameters, or
failure to perform a requested operation.
3 = WARNING Warning-level messages highlight a current operating condition that should be
checked or it may lead to a failure in the future. For example, a power supply failure in
a redundant system relays a warning that the system is no longer operating in
redundant mode unless the failed power supply is replaced or fixed.
4 = INFO Info-level messages report the current non-error status of the system components: for
example, detecting online and offline status of a fabric port.
Fabric OS Message Reference 5
53-1002749-01
Configuring the syslog message destinations 1
Configuring the syslog message destinations
You can configure the Fabric OS to send the syslog messages to the following output locations:
syslog daemon, system console, and SNMP management station.
System logging daemon
The system logging daemon (syslogd) is a process on UNIX, Linux, and some Windows systems that
reads and logs messages as specified by the system administrator.
Fabric OS can be configured to use a UNIX-style syslogd process to forward system events and error
messages to log files on a remote host system. The host system can be running UNIX, Linux, or any
other operating system that supports the standard syslogd functionality. Configuring for syslogd
involves configuring the host, enabling syslogd on the Brocade model, and, optionally, setting the
facility level.
For the Brocade DCX family of switches, each control processor (CP) has a unique error log,
depending on which CP was active when that message was reported. To fully understand message
logging, you should enable the syslogd, because the logs on the host computer are maintained in a
single merged file for both CPs and are in sequential order. Otherwise, you must examine the error
logs in both CPs, particularly for events such as firmwareDownload or haFailover, for which the
active CP changes.
For the Brocade DCX family of switches, any security violations that occur through Telnet, HTTP, or
serial connections are not propagated between CPs. Security violations on the active CP are not
propagated to the standby CP counters in the event of a failover, nor do security violations on the
standby CP get propagated to the active CP counters.
Configuring a syslog server
To configure the switch to forward all system events and error messages to the syslogd of one or
more servers, perform the following steps.
1. Log in to the switch as admin.
2. Execute the syslogdIpAdd IP address command to add a server to which system messages are
forwarded.
switch:admin> syslogdipadd 192.0.2.2
You can configure up to six syslog servers to receive the syslog messages.
3. Execute the syslogdIpShow command to verify the syslog configuration on the switch.
switch:admin> syslogdipshow
syslog.1 192.0.2.2
You can remove a configured syslog server using the syslogdIpRemove IP address command.
System console
The system console displays RASLog messages, Audit messages (if enabled), and panic dump
messages. These messages are mirrored to the system console; they are always saved in one of
the system logs.
6Fabric OS Message Reference
53-1002749-01
Configuring the syslog message destinations
1
The system console displays messages only through the serial port. If you log in to a switch through
the Ethernet port or modem port, you will not receive system console messages.
You can filter messages that display on the system console by severity using the errFilterSet
command. All messages are still sent to the system message log and syslogd (if configured).
Setting the system console severity level
You can limit the types of messages that are logged to the console using the errFilterSet command.
The system messages displayed on the console are filtered up to and include the configured
severity level. You can choose one of the following severity levels: INFO, WARNING, ERROR, or
CRITICAL.
To set the severity levels for the system console, perform the following steps.
1. Log in to the switch as admin.
2. Execute the errFilterSet [-d console -v severity] command to set the console severity level. The
severity can be one of the following: INFO, WARNING, ERROR, or CRITICAL. The severity values
are not case-sensitive.
For example, to set the filter severity level for the console to ERROR, enter the following
command.
switch:admin> errfilterset -d console -v error
3. Execute the errFilterSet command to verify the configured filter settings.
switch:admin> errfilterset
console: filter severity = ERROR
SNMP trap recipient
An unsolicited message that comes to the management station from the SNMP agent on the
device is called a trap. When an event occurs and if the event severity level is at or below the set
severity level, the SNMP trap, swEventTrap, is sent to the configured trap recipients. The VarBind in
the Trap Data Unit contains the corresponding instance of the event index, time information, event
severity level, the repeat count, and description. The following are the possible severity levels:
•None (0)
•Critical (1)
•Error (2)
•Warning (3)
•Informational (4)
•Debug (5)
By default, the severity level is set to None, implying all traps are filtered and therefore no event
traps are received. When the severity level is set to Informational, all traps with the severity level of
Informational, Warning, Error, and Critical are received. For more information on changing the
severity level of swEventTrap, refer to “Changing the severity level of swEventTrap” on page 11.
NOTE
The Audit messages are not converted into swEventTrap.
Fabric OS Message Reference 7
53-1002749-01
Configuring the syslog message destinations 1
The SNMP traps are unreliable because the trap recipient does not send any acknowledgment
when it receives a trap. Therefore, the SNMP agent cannot determine if the trap was received.
Brocade switches send traps out on UDP port 162. To receive traps, the management station IP
address must be configured on the switch. You can configure the SNMPv1 and SNMPv3 hosts to
receive the traps.
For more information on the swEventTrap, refer to the Fabric OS MIB Reference.
Configuring the SNMPv1 trap recipient
Use the snmpConfig --set snmpv1 command to specify the recipient of the SNMP trap. To
configure the SNMPv1 host to receive the trap, perform the following steps.
1. Log in to the switch as admin.
2. Execute the snmpConfig --set snmpv1 command to configure the SNMP trap recipient.

SNMP inform recipient
An SNMP inform is similar to the SNMP trap except that the management station that receives an
SNMP inform acknowledges the system message with an SNMP response packet data unit (PDU).
If the sender does not receive the SNMP response PDU, the inform request can be sent again. An
SNMP inform request is saved in the switch memory until a response is received or the request
times out. The informs are more reliable and they consume more resources in the device and in the
network. Use SNMP informs only if it is important that the management station receives all event
notifications. Otherwise, use the SNMP traps. Brocade devices support SNMPv3 informs.
Configuring the SNMPv3 inform recipient
To configure the SNMPv3 host to receive the SNMP informs, perform the following steps.
1. Log in to the switch as admin.
2. Execute the snmpConfig --set snmpv3 command to configure the inform recipient. When

Port logs
The Fabric OS maintains an internal log of all port activity. Each switch or logical switch maintains a
log file for each port. Port logs are circular buffers that can save up to 8000 entries per logical
switch. When the log is full, the newest log entries overwrite the oldest log entries. Port logs capture
switch-to-device, device-to-switch, switch-to-switch, some device A-to-device B, and control
information. Port logs are not persistent and are lost over power cycles and reboots.
Execute the portLogShow command to display the port logs for a particular port.
Execute the portLogEventShow command to display the specific events reported for each port.
Port log functionality is completely separate from the system message log. Port logs are typically
used to troubleshoot device connections.
Changing the severity level of swEventTrap
When an event occurs and if the event severity level is at or below the set severity level, the SNMP
trap, swEventTrap, is sent to the configured trap recipients. By default, the severity level is set at 0
(None), implying that all the event traps are sent. Use the snmpConfig --set mibCapability
command to modify the severity level of swEventTrap.

Reading an Audit message
Compared to RASLog error messages, messages flagged as AUDIT provide additional user and
system-related information of interest for post-event auditing and troubleshooting the problem.
The following example shows the format of the Audit event message.
<Sequence Number> AUDIT, <timestamp>, [<Event ID>], <Severity>, <Event Class>,
<User ID>/<Role>/<IP address>/<Interface>/<Application Name>, <Admin
Domain>/<Switch name>, <Reserved field for future expansion>, <Event-specific
information>
The following is a sample Audit event message.
0 AUDIT, 2005/12/10-09:54:03, [SEC-1000], WARNING, SECURITY,
JohnSmith/root/192.0.2.2/Telnet/CLI, Domain A/JohnsSwitch, , Incorrect password
during login attempt.
Sequence Number The error message position in the log. When a new message is added to the
log, this number is incremented by 1.
The message sequence number starts at 1 after a firmwareDownload and will
increase up to a value of 2,147,483,647 (0x7ffffff).
The sequence number continues to increase after the message log wraps
around, i.e. the oldest message in the log is deleted when a new message is
added. The sequence number can be reset to 1 using the errClear command.
The sequence number is persistent across power cycles and switch reboots.
Flags For most messages, this field contains a space character (null value)
indicating that the message is neither an AUDIT or FFDC message. Messages
may contain the following values:
•FFDC – Indicates that additional first failure data capture information has
also been generated for this event.
•FID – The Fabric ID that can range from 0 to 128. FID 128 means the
message was generated by the default switch instance.
•CHASSIS – The message that was generated by the chassis instance.
•SLOT number – Indicates the message was generated from slot # blade
main CPU.
•SLOT #/1 – Indicates the message was generated from slot # blade
Co-CPU.
Severity Level The severity of the error, which can be one of the following:
•1 – CRITICAL
•2 – ERROR
•3 – WARNING
•4 – INFO
Switch name The defined switch name or the chassis name of the switch depending on the
action; for example, high availability (HA) messages typically show the chassis
name, and login failures show the logical switch name.
This value is truncated if it exceeds 16 characters in length. Run either the
chassisName command to name the chassis or the switchName command to
rename the logical switch.
Event-specific information A text string explaining the error encountered and providing parameters
supplied by the software at runtime.

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 on page 28) 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.
•Document the sequence of events by answering the following questions:
-What happened just prior to the problem?
-Is the problem repeatable?
-If so, what are the steps to produce the problem?
-What configuration was in place when the problem occurred?
•Did a failover occur?
•Was security enabled?
•Was POST enabled?
Fabric OS Message Reference 27

Responding to a system message 1
•Are serial port (console) logs available?
•Which CP was master?
•What and when were the last actions or changes made to the system?
Common steps to be followed when troubleshooting a system message are as follows:
•Execute the errDump command on each logical switch.
•Execute the supportFtp command (as needed) to set up automatic FTP transfers, and then
execute the supportSave command.
Support
Fabric OS creates a number of files that can help support personnel troubleshoot and diagnose a
problem. This section describes those files and how to access or save the information for support
personnel.
Panic dump and core dump files
The Fabric OS creates panic dump files and core files when there are problems in the Fabric OS
kernel. You can view panic dump files using the pdShow command. These files can build up in the
kernel partition (typically because of failovers) and might need to be periodically deleted or
downloaded using the supportSave command.
The software watchdog process (SWD) is responsible for monitoring daemons critical to the
function of a healthy switch. The SWD holds a list of critical daemons that ping the SWD periodically
at a predetermined interval defined for each daemon. The ping interval is set at 133 seconds, with
the exception of the Fabric Watch daemon and the IP storage demon, which ping the SWD every
333 seconds. (For a complete listing of daemons, refer to the KSWD entry in Table 6.)
If a daemon fails to ping the SWD within the defined interval, or if the daemon terminates
unexpectedly, then the SWD dumps information to the panic dump files, which helps to diagnose
the root cause of the unexpected failure.
Execute the pdShow command to view these files or the supportSave command to send them to a
host workstation using FTP. The panic dump files and core files are intended for support personnel
use only.
Trace dumps
The Fabric OS produces trace dumps when problems are encountered within Fabric OS modules.
The Fabric OS trace dump files are intended for support personnel use only. You can use the
supportSave or supportFTP commands to collect trace dump files to a specified remote location to
provide to support when requested.
supportSave command
The supportSave command can be used to send the output of the system messages (RASLog), the
trace files, and the output of the supportShow command to an off-switch storage location through
FTP. Prior to running the supportSave command, you can optionally set up the FTP parameters
using the supportFtp command. The supportShow command runs a large number of dump and
show commands to provide a global output of the status of the switch. Refer to the Fabric OS
Command Reference for more information on these commands.

PORT PORT error messages refer to the front-end user ports on the switch. Front-end user ports are
directly accessible by users to connect end devices or connect to other switches.
PS The performance server daemon measures the amount of traffic between endpoints or traffic with
particular frame formats, such as SCSI frames, IP frames, and customer-defined frames.
PSWP The portswap feature and associated commands generate these error messages.
RAS Informational messages when first failure data capture (FFDC) events are logged to the FFDC log
and size or roll-over warning.
RCS The reliable commit service daemon generates log entries when it receives a request from the
zoning, security, or management server for passing data messages to switches in the fabric. RCS
then requests reliable transport write and read (RTWR) to deliver the message. RCS also acts as a
gatekeeper, limiting the number of outstanding requests for the Zoning, Security, or Management
Server modules.
RKD These messages are either error or informational messages pertaining to the re-key daemon of the
Fabric OS.
RMON RMON messages are error or informational messages pertaining to the RMOND daemon.
RPCD The remote procedure call daemon (RPCD) is used by Fabric Access for API-related tasks.
RTE RTE is responsible for determining the correct paths for each ingress frame and populating the
routing tables in the ASICs with this information. The ASIC then uses the information available in the
routing tables to determine the path a particular ingress frame needs to take before it exits the
switch.
RTWR The reliable transport write and read daemon helps deliver data messages either to specific
switches in the fabric or to all of the switches in the fabric. For example, if some of the switches are
not reachable or are offline, RTWR returns an “unreachable” message to the caller, allowing the
caller to take the appropriate action. If a switch is not responding, RTWR retries 100 times.
SCN The internal state change notification daemon is used for state change notifications from the kernel
to the daemons within Fabric OS.
SEC The security daemon generates security errors, warnings, or information during security-related data
management or fabric merge operations. Administrators should watch for these messages to
distinguish between internal switch and fabric operation errors and external attacks.
SFLO sFlow is a standard-based sampling technology embedded within switches and routers, which is
used to monitor high-speed network traffic for Data Center Ethernet (DCE) and Converged Enhanced
Ethernet (CEE) platforms.
sFlow uses two types of sampling:
•Statistical packet-based sampling of switched or routed packet flows.
•Time-based sampling of interface counters.
SFLO messages indicate errors or information related to the sflowd daemon.
SNMP Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) is a universally supported low-level protocol that
allows simple get, get next, and set requests to go to the switch (acting as an SNMP agent). It also
allows the switch to send traps to the defined and configured management station. Brocade
switches support six management entities that can be configured to receive these traps.
SPC SPC messages indicate problems and informational updates associated with the security processor.
These messages could be triggered by the following three modules: Security processor controller, SP
system controller, and SP Keyapp.
SPM Error messages indicating problems either with key or SP management.
SS The supportSave command generates these error messages if problems are encountered.

Message Port <port number> negotiated <flow control mode description> (mode = <received
flow control mode>).
Message Type LOG
Severity INFO
Probable Cause Indicates that a different flow control mode, as described in the message, is negotiated with the port at
the other end of the link. The flow control is a mechanism of throttling the transmitter port to avoid buffer
overrun at the receiving port. There are three types of flow control modes:
•VC_RDY mode: Virtual-channel flow control mode. This is a proprietary protocol.
•R_RDY mode: Receiver-ready flow control mode. This is the Fibre Channel standard protocol,
that uses R_RDY primitive for flow control.
•DUAL_CR mode: Dual-credit flow control mode. In both of the previous modes, the buffer
credits are fixed, based on the port configuration information. In this mode, the buffer credits
are negotiated as part of exchange link parameter (ELP) exchange. This mode also uses the
R_RDY primitive for flow control.

Probable Cause Indicates that the number of cyclic redundancy check (CRC) errors has changed from a value outside of
the acceptable range to a value within the acceptable range. This indicates that errors have been
detected in the FC frame. Invalid CRC messages occur when the number of CRC errors in Fibre Channel
frames for specific source ID (S_ID) and destination ID (D_ID) pairs change. These messages might also
be caused by dirty equipment, temperature fluctuations, and aging equipment. You should set your high
boundaries to five- or six-digit figures, because only large numbers of messages indicate a problem in
this area.

Message Type LOG
Severity INFO
Probable Cause Indicates that the number of incompatible security database violations has changed from a value outside
of the acceptable range to a value within the acceptable range. This violation indicates the number of
secure switches with different version stamps that have been detected. When a switch is in secure mode,
it connects only to another switch that is in secure mode and has a compatible security database. A
compatible security database means that the version stamp and fabric configuration server (FCS) policy
matches exactly.

Message Four power supplies are now required for 2X redundancy, Switch Status Policy
values changed.
Message Type LOG
Severity INFO
Probable Cause Indicates that the switch requires four power supplies and the prior Switch Status Policy parameters will
be overwritten to reflect this. The presence of an AP blade means that more than one power supply may
be required to provide adequate power. So (even if the AP blade is powered down or removed) the
Switch Status Policy values will now reflect the need for four power supplies to maintain full (2X)
redundancy.
Recommended
Action
No action required unless there are fewer than four power supplies active in the chassis. If there are
fewer than four, insert additional power supplies so that there are four active power supplies.
FW-1446
Message Four power supplies now required for 2X redundancy, not enforced by Fabric Watch
due to Switch Status Policy overridden by User.
Message Type LOG
Severity WARNING
Probable Cause Indicates that the switch now requires four power supplies for full (2X) redundancy, but the user has
previously overridden the Switch Status Policy values pertaining to the number of power supplies. So
those values will not be automatically changed.
With no AP blades, the default value is 3 (out of service), indicating switch status is down or 0 indicating
no checking for switch status marginal.
When an AP blade is or has been present, the default value is 2 (out of service) indicating switch status
is down or 1 (out of service) indicating switch status is marginal.
Recommended
Action
To maintain full (2X) redundancy and proper monitoring by Fabric Watch, supply four active power
supplies and enter the default values associated with the presence of an AP blade using the
switchStatusPolicySet command.

Message RCS process fails: <reason code>.
Message Type LOG
Severity ERROR
Probable Cause Indicates that the reliable commit service (RCS) process failed to complete. RCS is a mechanism for
transferring data from one switch to other switches within the fabric. RCS ensures that either all or none
of the switches commit to the database. RCS can fail if one switch in the fabric is busy or in an error state
that prevents it from accepting the database.
Recommended
Action
RCS is evoked when the security database is modified by a security command (for example,
secPolicySave, secPolicyActivate, or distribute). If the switch is busy, the command may fail the first
time. Retry the command.
Run the rcsInfoShow command to view RCS capability on the fabric. RCS must be capable on all
switches in the fabric to be enabled. If all switches are capable, it is automatically enabled.
If the message persists, execute the supportFtp command (as needed) to set up automatic FTP
transfers; then execute the supportSave command and contact your switch service provider.
SEC-1002
Message Security data fails: <Reason Text>.
Message Type LOG
Severity ERROR
Probable Cause Indicates that the receiving switch fails to validate the security database sent from the primary fabric
configuration server (FCS) switch. This may be caused by several factors: the data package may be
corrupted, the time stamp on the package may be out of range as a result of replay attack or out-of-sync
time service, or the signature verification failed. Signature verification failure may result from an internal
error, such as losing the primary public key or an invalid database.
Recommended
Action
Run the secFabricShow command to verify that the fabric is still consistent. All the switches should be in
the ready state. If a switch is in the error state, the database may not be correctly updated for that switch.
The error may also be a result of an internal corruption or a hacker attack to the secure fabric. If you have
reason to believe that the error is the result of a possible security breach, take appropriate action as
defined by your enterprise security policy.

firmware. The firmware download operation supports firmware upgrades within two feature
releases (a feature release is indicated by a major number and a minor number; for example,
X.Y). In this case, you will need to upgrade to an intermediate version before downloading the
desired version. If this error occurs in the middle of a firmware download, the firmware in the

Run the firmwareDownloadStatus command for more information.
In a modular switch, when the firmwareDownload command fails, the command will synchronize the
firmware on the two partitions of each CP by starting a firmware commit operation. Wait until this
operation completes (about 10 minutes) before attempting another firmware download.
In a modular switch, when the firmwareDownload command fails, the two CPs may end up with
different versions of firmware and they may not gain high availability (HA) sync. In this case, run the
firmwareDownload -s command to upgrade the firmware on the standby CP to the same version as the
active CP. Then retry the firmwareDownload command to download the desired version of firmware
onto the CPs.

Message Type LOG
Severity INFO
Probable Cause Indicates the fabric time synchronization was sourced from an alternate clock server instead of the
configured clock server. The clock server used can be one of the following type:
•LOCL - Local clock on the principal or primary FCS switch.
•External - External Network Time Protocol (NTP) server address configured.
This message may be logged during temporary operational issues such as IP network connection issues
to the external clock server or the fabric is configured for external time synchronization but the principal
or primary fabric configuration server (FCS) does not support the feature. If the message does not recur,
it can be ignored.
Recommended
Action
Execute the tsClockServer command to verify that the principal or primary FCS switch has the clock
server IP configured correctly, and the configured clock server is accessible to the switch and functional.
