portCfgFaultDelay
Configures the fault delay for a single FC port.
SYNOPSIS portcfgfaultdelay --enable [slot/]port mode
portcfgfaultdelay --help
DESCRIPTION Use this command to configure the fault delay of an FC port.
In the event that the link is noisy after a host power cycle, the switch may go into a soft fault state, which
means a delay of R_A_TOV. Setting the mode value to 1 reduces the fault delay value to 1.2 seconds.
The configuration is stored in nonvolatile memory and is persistent across switch reboots or power cycle.
Use the portCfgShow command to display user-configured fault delay settings.
NOTES The execution of this command is subject to Virtual Fabric or Admin Domain restrictions that may be in
place. Refer to Chapter 1, "Using Fabric OS Commands" and Appendix A, "Command Availability" for
details.
This command is not applicable to non-FC ports.
OPERANDS This command has the following operands:
slot For bladed systems only, specifies the slot number of the port to be configured,
followed by a slash (/).
port Specifies the number of the port to be configured, relative to its slot for bladed
systems. Use switchShow for a listing of valid ports.
mode Specifies the fault delay value for the port number. This operand is required. Valid
values are one of the following:
0 Sets the fault delay to R_A_TOV (default)
1 Sets the fault delay to 1.2 seconds.
---help Displays the command usage.
EXAMPLES To set the fault delay of a port to 1.2 seconds:
switch:admin> portcfgfaultdelay 2/3 1
To display the configuration
switch:admin> portcfgshow 2/3 1
