Port Statistics Field Definitions

Tx Frames – FC frames transmitted by this adapter port.

Tx Words – FC words transmitted by this adapter port.

Tx KB Count – FC kilobytes transmitted by this adapter port.

Tx Sequences – FC sequences transmitted by this adapter port.

LIP count – The number of loop initialization primitive (LIP) events that have
occurred for the port. This field is not supported if the topology is not arbitrated
loop. Loop initialization consists of the following:

Temporarily suspending loop operations.

Determining whether loop capable ports are connected to the loop.

Assigning AL_PA IDs.

Providing notification of configuration changes and loop failures.

Placing loop ports in the monitoring state.

Error Frames – The number of frames received with cyclic redundancy check
(CRC) errors.

Link Failures – The number of times the link has failed. A link failure is a
possible cause of a timeout.

Loss of Signal – The number of times the signal was lost.

Invalid Tx Words – The total number of invalid words transmitted by this
adapter port.
