■ Reason — When the port operating state is Segmented E_Port,
Invalid Attachment, or Inactive, this field displays the reason for
that state. When an E_Port is segmented, two fabrics are prevented from
joining. This only occurs when the switch is attempting to connect to another
switch. Reasons and probable causes are as follows:
— If Operational State is Segmented E Port:
— Segment Not Defined
— Incompatible Operating Parameters
— Duplicate Domain ID(s)
— Incompatible Zoning Configurations
— Build Fabric Protocol Error
— No Principal Switch
— No Response from Attached Switch
— ELP Retransmission Failure Timeout
— If Operational State is Invalid Attachment:
— Unknown
— ISL connection not allowed on this port
— ELP rejected by the attached switch
— Incompatible switch at other end of the ISL
— External loopback adapter connected to the port
— N_Port connection not allowed on this port
— Non-HP high availability fabric switch or compatible switch at other
end of the ISL
— ISL connection not allowed to external Fabrics
— Port binding violation — unauthorized WWN
— Unresponsive node connected to Port
