I/O Expansion Module
Transient

When the threshold is exceeded, the module is
deconfigured except in Simplex system.

24
When the threshold is exceeded, the module is
deconfigured except in Simplex system.
Interface Module
Transient
NXIO errors
3
12
When the threshold is exceeded, the interface module is
deconfigured, except in a Simplex system.
Zone
Power
failures
3
24
When power is lost, the zone is temporarily removed
from service and the error is compared to its error rate
threshold. When power is restored, the zone will be
resynchronized automatically if the threshold has not
been exceeded.
Zone
divergence
3
24
When the zones diverge, one zone is temporarily
removed from the configuration and the error is
compared to its error rate threshold. When the
zone returns to service, it will be reconfigured if the
threshold is not exceeded. This threshold is not applied
directly to any FRU. The selection of which zone to
remove is made based on how the error manifests itself
within the system.
Cross-Link
Cable
failures
3
24
When the cable between the zones is lost, the zone
is temporarily removed from service and the error is
compared to its error rate threshold. When the zone
returns, it will be resynchronized automatically if the
threshold has not been exceeded.
Transient
I/O errors
3
12
When the threshold is exceeded, the cross-link is
deconfigured, which results in the removal of one of the
zones from service.
