Hello,
NOS refers to "No operatioal sequence". Fibre channel has primitive seqences which are used to establish and maintain a link among the devices.
During the initial login phase,
1.Fiber channel switch sends a NOS signal
2.HBA connected to it sends an "OLS (offline sequence) signal.
3.Switch would send a "Link reset"(LR)
4.HBA responds with a "LRR (link reset response)"
When a NOS received condition is met,
•
A signal loss or sync loss condition is detected.
•The port is administratively shut down.
•The port is operationally down.
When the port status is in "link failure or not-connected" state, it means that the physical path is not completely active or no active signals has been sent. Check the cables/SFP's if pluged in properly and check the configuration (port type, speed and vsan settings) for further troubleshooting.
