253 Appendix A: Event code tables
Port events (500 through 599)
Event code: 506
Message: Fibre Channel port failure.
Severity: Major.
Explanation: A Fibre channel port failed. The amber LED corresponding to the port illuminates to indicate the failure. Ports with

Action: Perform a a data collection and return the CD to support personnel. Perform a switch reset. If the problem
persists, replace the switch.
Event data: Byte 0 = port number. Bytes 17 and 18 = transmitter technology.
Byte 1 = engineering reason code. Byte 19 = distance capability.
Bytes 4 - 7 = elapsed millisecond tick count. Byte 20 = supported transmission media.
Bytes 8 - 11 = reason code specific. Byte 21 and 22 = speed capability.
Byte 16 = connector type.
