scsitarget.slifct.asyncError

Deprecated

Deprecated as of ONTAP® version 9.2.0 in an effort reduce event messages.

Severity

ERROR

Description

This message occurs when the Fibre Channel target device driver encounters an unrecognized asynchronous event notification from the firmware, possibly as a result of a firmware update. The unrecognized event is ignored by the system.

Corrective Action

No administrative action is required. If the messages persist, contact NetApp technical support with the event details for assistance.

Syslog Message

FC port %s encountered an unexpected event of x%x, type of x%x, with additional status of x%x, x%x, x%x.

Parameters

hba (STRING): Name of the port where the event occurred.
async_event_code (INTHEX): Asynchronous event code that was unrecognized by the target driver.
async_event_type (INTHEX): Asynchronous event type that was unrecognized by the target driver.
async_event_word1 (INTHEX): Asynchronous event word_1 that was unrecognized by the target driver.
async_event_word2 (INTHEX): Asynchronous event word_2 that was unrecognized by the target driver.
async_event_word3 (INTHEX): Asynchronous event word_3 that was unrecognized by the target driver.

scsitarget.slifct.fwAutoBoot

Severity

NOTICE

Description

This message occurs when the SLIFCT driver successfully updates the firmware version of the host bus adapter (HBA). The controller will be rebooted automatically to complete the process.

Corrective Action

None; the controller will be rebooted automatically to enable the new HBA firmware.

Syslog Message

FC target HBA %s firmware version updated from %s to %s. The controller will be rebooted automatically to enable the new HBA firmware.

Parameters

hba (STRING): HBA where the firmware version update occurred.
currentversion (STRING): Firmware version the HBA was running.
bundleversion (STRING): Firmware version bundled with Data ONTAP®.

scsitarget.slifct.fwNeedBoot

Severity

ERROR

Description

This message occurs when the SLIFCT driver successfully updates the firmware version of the host bus adapter (HBA), and requires a reboot of the controller to complete the process.

Corrective Action

Reboot the controller to enable the new HBA firmware.

Syslog Message

FC target HBA %s firmware version updated from %s to %s. Reboot the controller to enable the new HBA firmware.

Parameters

hba (STRING): HBA where the firmware version update occurred.
currentversion (STRING): Firmware version the HBA was running.
bundleversion (STRING): Firmware version bundled with Data ONTAP®.

scsitarget.slifct.fwUpdDone

Severity

NOTICE

Description

This message occurs when the SLIFCT driver successfully updates the firmware version of the host bus adapter (HBA).

Corrective Action

(None).

Syslog Message

FC target HBA %s firmware version updated from %s to %s.

Parameters

hba (STRING): HBA where the firmware version update occurred.
currentversion (STRING): Firmware version the HBA was running.
bundleversion (STRING): Firmware version bundled with Data ONTAP®.

scsitarget.slifct.fwUpdErr

Severity

ERROR

Description

This message occurs when the SLIFCT driver encounters an error while updating the firmware version of the host bus adapter (HBA).

Corrective Action

Contact technical support for further analysis.

Syslog Message

FC target HBA %s failed to update the firmware version from %s to %s with the status of %d.

Parameters

hba (STRING): HBA where the firmware version update failure occurred.
currentversion (STRING): Firmware version the HBA is running.
bundleversion (STRING): Firmware version bundled with Data ONTAP®.
status (INT): Status code of the firmware update process.

scsitarget.slifct.linkBreak

Severity

ERROR

Description

This message occurs when the SLIFCT driver receives a link break notification.

Corrective Action

If the link break was unexpected, check the cables and switch connection.

Syslog Message

Link break detected on Fibre Channel target HBA %s with event status %d , topology type %d, status1 0x%x, status2 0x%x.

Parameters

hba (STRING): Name of the target HBA (Host bus adapter) that lost link.
status (INTHEX): Reported event's status.
topology (INTHEX): Code for identifying the topology.
status1 (INTHEX): Value of the SLIPORT_ERROR1 register.
status2 (INTHEX): Value of the SLIPORT_ERROR2 register.

scsitarget.slifct.mboxError

Deprecated

Deprecated as of ONTAP® version 9.2.0 in an effort to reduce event messages.

Severity

ERROR

Description

This message occurs when the SLIFCT host bus adapter (HBA) encounters an error while processing a mailbox command.

Corrective Action

Contact NetApp technical support with the command, subsystem, subopcode, status, and extended status code for further analysis.

Syslog Message

FC port %s has a mailbox processing failure for command x%x, subsystem x%x, subopcode x%x, with the status of %d and the extended status of x%x.

Parameters

hba (STRING): HBA where the mailbox command failure occurred.
command (INTHEX): Mailbox command code.
subsystem (INTHEX): Mailbox subsystem code.
subopcode (INTHEX): Mailbox command subsystem opcode.
status (INT): Status communicated by the firmware for the mailbox command.
extended_status (INTHEX): Extended status communicated by the firmware for the mailbox command.

scsitarget.slifct.rebootRequired

Severity

EMERGENCY

Description

This message occurs when a Fibre Channel adapter experiences an unrecoverable error. The adapter cannot serve data without a node reboot.

Corrective Action

Reboot the node to reinitialize the adapter. If the adapter fails to initialize or continues to experience errors, replace the adapter. For further assistance, contact NetApp technical support.

Syslog Message

Unrecoverable error detected on Fibre Channel target HBA %s with error codes %d and %d.

Parameters

hba (STRING): Name of the target HBA that encountered the error.
ERROR_1 (INT): Value of the SLIPORT_ERROR1 register.
ERROR_2 (INT): Value of the SLIPORT_ERROR2 register.
