For information about the Fibre Channel switch SN200 model 250M and Brocade AP7420, see "2.7.1 Explanation of Fibre Alliance MIB Support Device Events".

The event trap message is output without any change from the device. When it is uncertain about the content of the message, contact your hardware customer engineer (CE). A typical event is described as follows.

Event at power supply fault

When the power supply fault occurs, the following events are reported. Confirm the state of a real device in power supply by LED etc. of the device.

FW-BELOW1 envPS001 (Env Power Supply 1) is below low boundary. current value : 0 (1 OK/0 FAULTY). (faulty)

Event at fan fault

When the fan fault occurs, the following events are reported. Confirm the state of a real device in power supply by fan LED etc. of the device.

FW-BELOW1 envFan001 (Env Fan 1) is below low boundary. current value : 0 RPM. (faulty)
EM-FAN_POLICY 1 blower failed. Replace failed blower assembly immediately.

Event when device fault is detected

The event concerning the change in the whole status of the device is reported together when the fault occurs in the device including the above-mentioned power supply fault and fan fault, etc. The event trap of this device status is always reported at the warning level. The state to keep tedium in the device is expressed "State of warning (Marginal/Warning)", and the state to lose tedium is expressed "State of the error (DOWN/FAILED)" in this message.

When changing from the state of normality into the state of warning
FW-STATUS_SWITCH Switch status changed from HEALTHY/OK to Marginal/Warning
When changing from the state of warning into the state of the error
FW-STATUS_SWITCH Switch status changed from Marginal/Warning to DOWN/FAILED
When changing from the state of normality into the state of the error
FW-STATUS_SWITCH Switch status changed from HEALTHY/OK to DOWN/FAILED

The event which becomes the cause is separately reported when reported on the above-mentioned event. Contact hardware customer engineer (CE) of the device when the content of the event is uncertain.

Event when device fault is recovered

When the fault is recovered, the following event is reported. Note that it is reported at the warning level in this case.

When changing from the state of warning into the state of normality
FW-STATUS_SWITCH Switch status changed from Marginal/Warning to HEALTHY/OK
When changing from the state of error into the state of normality
FW-STATUS_SWITCH Switch status changed from DOWN/FAILED to HEALTHY/OK
When changing from the state of error into the state of warning (No complete restoration.)
FW-STATUS_SWITCH Switch status changed from DOWN/FAILED to Marginal/Warning

Event when access path is set up

The following events may be reported at the time of an access path setup.

(1) ZONE-TRANSCOMMIT Transaction Commit failed. Reason code 10 - "Fabric Merging"
(2) ZONE-TRANSCOMMIT Transaction Commit failed. Reason code 2 - "Aca Was Rejected"

These events show that zoning setting command to Fibre Channel switch is an error at the time of an access path setup. In this case, log in to the Fibre Channel switch which reported the event of (2) by telnet, perform zoning setup manually by the zoning setting command "cfgEnable" and "cfgSave". Please refer to the manual of Fibre Channel switch about the details of command.

In addition, in order to prevent a recurrence, please set up a parameter according to "SILKWORM_ZONING_DELAY_TIMER" of "C.2 sanma.conf Parameter" in the ETERNUS SF Storage Cruiser User's Guide.
