commands+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++To correct a port that has
come up in the wrong mode, first use portshow to display more
detailed information. Below listed some troubleshooting guide, when
you see port mode is wrong:DisabledCheck the output from the
switchShow command to determine whether or not the switch is
disabled. If the port is disabled (for example, due to persistent
disable or security reasons), attempt to resolve the issue and then
enter the portEnable command.BypassedCheck the output from the
switchShow command to determine whether or not the port is
testing.LoopbackCheck the output from the switchShow command to
determine whether or not the port is testing.E_PortIf the opposite
side is not another switch, the link has come up in a wrong mode.
Check the output from the portLogShow or PortLogDump commands and
identify the link initialization stage where the initialization
procedure went wrong.F_PortIf the opposite side of the link is a
fabric device, the link has come up in a wrong mode. Check the
output from portLogShow or PortLogDump commands.G_PortThe port has
not come up as an E_Port or F_Port. Check the output from
portLogShow or PortLogDump commands and identify the link
initialization stage where the initialization procedure went
wrong.L_PortIf the opposite side is not a loop device, the link has
come up in a wrong mode. Check the output from portLogShow or
PortLogDump commands and identify the link initialization stage
where the initialization procedure went wrong.Error
