Interpreting POST results

To determine whether POST completed successfully and whether any errors were detected:

1. Verify that the 8Gb SAN Switch LEDs indicate all components are healthy. See Table 16, page

37 for description and interpretation of LED patterns. If one or more LEDs do not display a Healthy

state, use the switchshow command to verify that the LEDs on the switch are not set to “beacon”.

2. Verify that the 8Gb SAN Switch prompt appears on the terminal of a computer workstation

connected to the switch. If there is no switch prompt when POST completes, press Enter. If the

switch prompt still does not appear, try opening another Telnet session or another management

tool. If this is not successful, the 8Gb SAN Switch did not successfully complete POST; contact

HP.

3. Review the switch system log for errors. Any errors detected during POST are written to the system

log, accessible through the errshow command.

For information about all referenced commands and accessing the error log, refer to the latest

version of the HP StorageWorks Fabric OS administrator guide. For information about error

messages, refer to the Fabric OS system error messages reference manual.
