Hello Florent,

Are you aware of any changes that triggered this fault ?

Can you please provide the output of " show vsan usage " from nxos cli mode ?

hi Padma,

Thanks you for responding.

The fault is appeared during implementation.

Below, you will find outputs.

fi1-A(nxos)# sh vsan usage

2 vsan configured

configured vsans:1,100

vsans available for configuration:2-99,101-4078,4080-4093

fi1-B(nxos)# sh vsan usage

2 vsan configured

configured vsans:1,200

vsans available for configuration:2-199,201-4078,4080-4093

no issue for me

Thanks

I found a difference in VSAN configuration.

Fabric A:

ID: 100

Port Type: aggregation

Transport type: FC

Port Channel Admin Speed is "Auto"

Operational Speed (Gbps): 32

Fabric B:

ID: 200

Port Type: aggregation

Transport type: FC

Port Channel Admin Speed is "8 Gbps"

Operational Speed (Gbps): 32

is this could be the problem ?

If i change, port channel admin speed, what are the consequences ?

Thanks

Hello Florent,

Were you trying to implement FC port channel ?

Can you please share related fault messages for this event from " show fault detail " output ?

scope fc-uplink

show interface

connect nxos ( from both FI )

show san-port-channel summary

Is it for both FIs ?

Hello Florent,

We need more logs and so I would suggest you to open a TAC service request to further investigate the following fault message for FI B FC links.

------------------------------------------

Code: F999590

Description: [FSM:FAILED]: Uplink fc port configuration on B(FSM:sam:dme:SwFcSanBorderDeploy)

Affected Object: sys/switch-B/border-fc

Creation Time: 2011-10-10T09:56:12.953

-------------------------------------------

Following information would also help the investigation

Were there any VSAN mismatch between FI and upstream FC switch ?

Is FI running End host or switching FC mode ?

Is FC trunking enabled on these links ?

If the FC ports are up and active, it could be also where the fault condition got cleared but fault message stayed on.

Thanks

Hi all,

Good news, the fault has been cleared when i disable unused port.

So , i don't need to open a TAC request for the moment.

Thnaks for helping.
