Fibre-channel port-1 through 4 option

The fibre-channel port-1 through 4 options display the operational status of the fibre-channel ports.

Active
The port is operational and can access the fibre-channel fabric.
Inactive
The port is operational but cannot access the fibre-channel fabric. One of the following conditions caused this result:
  • The fibre-channel cable has failed
  • The fibre-channel cable is not installed
  • The device that is at the other end of the cable has failed
Failed
The port is not operational because of a hardware failure.
Not installed

To display the current fibre-channel port speed, press and hold the down button, press and release the select button, and release the down button. For the SAN Volume Controller 2145-8F2 or the SAN Volume Controller 2145-4F2, you can also use this action to change the fibre-channel port speed of a node that is not participating in a cluster, by pressing the up or down buttons.
