Dell PowerVault 51F 8-Port Fibre Channel Switch Installation and Troubleshooting Guide

stat_ftx

Number of frames transmitted from the port.

stat_frx

Number of frames received by the port.

stat_c2_frx

Number of Class 2 frames received.

stat_c3_frx

Number of Class 3 frames received.

stat_lc_rx

Number of link control frames received.

stat_mc_rx

Number of multicast frames received.

stat_mc_to

Number of timeouts reported for multicast frames. A single
frame could cause this counter to increment if it timed out for
each multiple destination.

stat_mc_tx

Number of multicast frames transmitted.

tim_rdy_pri

The amount of time (measured in proprietary ticks) that R_RDY
transmission has higher priority than frame transmission.

tim_txcrd_z

Time that this port cannot transmit frames due to a transmit
buffer-to-buffer credit of zero.

er_enc_in

Received data: the number of 8b/10b encoding errors that have
occurred inside frame boundaries. This counter is generally a
nonzero value, although occasional errors may occur on a normal
link and give a zero result. (Minimum compliance with the link bit
error rate specification on a link continuously receiving frames
would cause approximately one error every 20 minutes.)

er_crc

Received frames: the number of CRC errors detected.

er_trunc

Received frames: the number of frames that were shorter than
the minimum Fibre Channel frame size (for example, a header
with no payload).

er_toolong

Received frames: the number of frames that were longer than
the maximum Fibre Channel frame size (for example, a header
with a 2,112-byte payload).

er_bad_eof

The number of frames received with a badly formed end-of-
frame.

er_enc_out

Receive link: the number of 8b/10b encoding errors recorded
outside frame boundaries. This number may become nonzero
during link initialization but indicates a problem if it increments
faster than the allowed link-bit error rate (approximately once
every 20 minutes).

er_disc_c3

Receive link: the number of Class 3 frames discarded. Class 3
frames can be discarded due to timeouts or invalid/unreachable
destinations. This quantity could increment at times during nor-
mal operation but might be used for diagnosing problems in
some situations.
