Overview of system messages
This guide supports Fabric OS v7.1.0 and documents system messages that can help you diagnose
and fix problems with a switch or fabric. The messages are organized alphabetically by module
name. A module is a subsystem in the Fabric OS. Each module generates a set of numbered
messages. For each message, this guide provides message text, probable cause, recommended
action, and severity level. There may be more than one cause and more than one recommended
action for any given message. This guide discusses the most probable cause and typical action
recommended.
