Decode of T3 / Purple Loop (Firmware Status) Codes. |
|
31 May 2000 |
This chart provides the decode of the numbers that are displayed at
the end of the "firmware status =" message. This code is output from
the Qlogic ISP 2100 controllers. These messges can be observed on the
T3 / Purple RS232 admin (COM) port during a T3 / Purple boot up.
eg.
Initializing loop 1 ISP2100 ... firmware status = 3
Detected 19 FC-AL ports on loop 1
Initializing loop 2 ISP2100 ... firmware status = 3
etc
The decode of the firmware status code numbers is as follows ...
----------------------------------------------------------------------------

| 1 | Loop initialization in progress |

----------------------------------------------------------------------------
| 3 | Operational |

| 4 | Loss of sync detected, attempting to resync |
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
| 5 | Unrecoverable error |
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
| 6 | Re-initialization in progress |
