Running a Fibre Channel protocol-level test using the GUI

There are three protocol-level tests:

•

Echo test, which sends an FC Echo ELS to a remote port.

•

FC ping test, which requests the management server to test the connectivity with a given 
remote port (without zoning restrictions). Not supported in Solaris operating systems.

•

FC traceroute test, which requests to enumerate the route between two given end points. Not 
supported in Solaris operating systems.

To run one of the protocol-level tests, use the following procedure.

1. Select an adapter or port from the device tree.

2. Select Configure > Diagnostics from the main menu.

OR

Right-click the component and select Diagnostics from the list.

The Diagnostics dialog box is displayed. 

3. Click the FC Protocol Tests tab.
