AG System Messages

AG-1001

Message

<timestamp>, [AG-1001], <sequence-number>,, ERROR, <system-name>, N_Port ID

virtualization (NPIV) is not supported by fabric port connected to port <port>.

Probable Cause

N_Port ID virtualization (NPIV) capability is not supported by the fabric port to which the Access
Gateway is connected.

Recommended

Action

On switches running Fabric OS 6.0 or earlier versions, run the portCfgNpivPort command to
enable NPIV capability on the port connected to the Access Gateway. Refer to the Fabric OS
Command Reference
manual for more information on this command.

Some blades and ports in a switch may not support NPIV. NPIV functionality can not be
enabled on such ports and they will not respond to NPIV requests. Refer to the Access Gateway
Administrator Guide, Appendix B
, for specific AG-compatibility requirements.

On non-Brocade switches, refer to the manufacturer's documentation to determine whether
the switch supports NPIV and how to enable NPIV on these types of switches.

Severity

ERROR

AG-1002

Message

<timestamp>, [AG-1002], <sequence-number>,, WARNING, <system-name>, Unable to

find alternate N_Port during failover for N_Port

<port>.

Probable Cause

Indicates no other N_Port is configured or the fabric was unstable during failover.

Recommended

Action

Check whether or not an alternate N_Port is configured.

If the message persists, run the supportFtp command (as needed) to set up automatic FTP
transfers; then run the supportSave command and contact your switch service provider.

Severity

WARNING

AG-1003

Message

<timestamp>, [AG-1003], <sequence-number>,, WARNING, <system-name>, Unable to

failover N_Port <port>. Failover across different fabrics is not supported.

Probable Cause

Indicates that the failover does not get blocked between two fabrics, although it is not a supported
configuration.

Recommended

Action

Configure two or more N_Ports to connect to the same fabric; then execute the ag --failoverenable
command to enable failover on these N_Ports.
