Fibre Channel Services Command List

FcPortFailure 
(Immediate)

Controls the behavior of FC ports 
while the bridge is in AddressB 
(failover) mode.

fcportfailover fp [recover | force [loopdown 
| portdown | isperr]]

The recover option should be selected for 
actual failover operation.

The force option forces a failure for testing 
and demonstration purposes by simulating 
loss of FC synchronization (loopdown), ISP 
chip failure detected by fabric (portdown), or 
internal ISP chip error (isperr).

FcPortList 
(Immediate)

List the available Fibre Channel 
ports and their current status. 

fcportlist

FcSCSIBusyStatus

Specify the SCSI status value 
returned when the FC230 is unable 
to accept a SCSI command due to a 
temporary lack of internal 
resources. 

QFULL

set fcscsibusystatus [busy | qfull]
get fcscsibusystatus

Displays information about every 
FC device visible to a bridge 
operating in initiator mode.

FibreBridgeModel

Report the specific FC230 model 
information.

FibreBridgeName

Specify the 8-character name 
assigned to the FC bridge. 

“........”

the FC bridge when addressed by 
the host. This LUN is taken from 
NVRAM.

ports)

set fibrebridgetargetlun [0 - 31]

FirmwareRestart 
(Immediate)

Reboot the FC bridge firmware.

firmwarerestart

Help (Immediate)

Displays a list of available 
commands. When the optional
