Accessing Port Statistics

Choose Monitor on the navigation panel. Choose the Port Stats tab; the Port
Stats
tab view displays (

Figure 31

).

To display port statistics for a selected port, enter a port number in the Port
Number
field and choose Get Port Statistics. (You can also choose the Back or
Fwd buttons to view the previous or next port.) The Port Statistics are divided into
Traffic Statistics, Error Statistics, Class Two Statistics, and Class Three Statistics.
(You may need to scroll down to see all of the categories.)

The information shown that displays is current as of the time when the view
displays. The information does not update automatically.

Troubleshooting Tip for Port Stats

As a general rule, you should clear all the counters by choosing Clear Port Stats
or Clear All Port Stats after you have resolved a problem. When troubleshooting,
keep track of the time interval when errors accumulate to judge the presence and
severity of a problem. (There is a link recovery hierarchy implemented in Fibre
Channel to handle some level of “expected anomalies.”) For troubleshooting
purposes, you want to focus on errors that, as displayed in the Counter column,
increment very quickly.
