9600 quad supervisor, stackwise, SVL link err-disabled

balzsnacsa · ‎10-11-2021

Hello guys. I have the following problem. In a Virtual StackWise environment, there are four SVL links and two DAD links. One of the SVL link err-disabled. I changed QSFP. How can I turn this one back on? There are no "shutdown"/"no shutdown" commands at the SVL port.

Hi,

Error-disable of the SVL/DAD Links

Possible Cause

The transceiver/SFP/QSFP used on the SVL/DAD links might be faulty at the hardware layer and the xcvrs might itself generate frequent link flaps and thereby error-disable the SVL/DAD links.

Tips to troubleshoot

1. Verify show idprom interface <SVL/DAD link>

2. Verify if any of the interfaces are indeed err-disabled on the switch, use show interfaces status err-disabled.

If you are unable to find the root cause please provide these command outputs

1. show errdisable flap-values

2. show errdisable recovery

3. show errdisable detect

4. show tech-support stackwise-virtual

5. Collect trace archive file

Possible Solution

1. Shut/ No Shut SVL LINKS: test platform software nif_mgr port disable / enable LPN

2. Physical OIR of the transceiver or try to change the transceiver or cable on SVL/DAD links.

about your question: "How can I turn this one back on? There are no "shutdown"/"no shutdown" commands at the SVL port."

How to Shut/Unshut SVL Port?

Shut and no shut comands are disabled on SVL and DAD ports when the system configured in StackWise-virtual mode. For test purposes, if there is a need to shut/unshut SVL ports, try as shown here:

Switch#test platform software nif_mgr port ?
  disable  shutdown port
  enable   unshut port

Alternatively, use the below approach which can simulate SFP/QSFP OIR from software (e.g. on Cat9400/Cat9500H/Cat9600). These are hidden commands and requires 'service internal' to be configured:

Switch#test idprom interface <...> ?
  fake-insert  Fake insert
  fake-remove  Fake remove

Hi,

the err-disabled port is Fo1/6/0/24.

Is the command?

switch#test platform software nif_mgr port disable 6 24 ?

switch#test platform software nif_mgr port enable 6 24 ?

But, switch 1, Fo1/6/0/24 and switch 2, Fo2/6/0/24 are the same. How does the switch know which port to handle?

Explanation:


switch 1 slot 6 port 24 LPN=24:

switch#sh platform software fed sw 1 ifm mappings
Interface                    IF_ID Inst Asic Core Port SubPort Mac Cntx LPN GPN Type Active
FortyGigabitEthernet1/6/0/24 0x173  5    2    1    19   0      16   12   24 504  NIF  Y

switch#test platform software nif_mgr port enable ?

  <0-10>  Slot

switch#test platform software nif_mgr port enable 6 ?

  <1-96>  LPN to toggle

switch#test platform software nif_mgr port enable 6 24


but switch 2 slot 6 port 24 LPN=24:

switch#sh platform software fed sw 1 ifm mappings
Interface                    IF_ID Inst Asic Core Port SubPort Mac Cntx LPN GPN Type Active
FortyGigabitEthernet2/6/0/24 0xb0   5    2    1    19   0      16   12   24 1080 NIF  Y


switch#test platform software nif_mgr port enable 6 24

- Check logs for this particular condition and or event too. Particular log entries may point to the cause and possible error-recovery (post log entries here).

Yep, I saw it: the link has flapped. I changed QSFP but the err-disabled status has not vanished.
