+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
To correct a port that has come up in the wrong mode, first use portshow
<Port Number> to display more detailed information. Below listed some
troubleshooting guide,when you see port mode is wrong:
Disabled
Check 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.
Bypassed
Check the output from the switchShow command to determine whether or not the port is testing.
Loopback
Check the output from the switchShow command to determine whether or not the port is testing.
E_Port
If 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_Port
If 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_Port
The 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_Port
If 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 Findings
switchshow - Indicators like
no light or In_sync will be displayed
portshow <port> -
Provides report on errors on a port
porterrshow - provides gist
of port errors, look for delta of counters
portstatsshow <port> -
Provides details of port errors
portstats64show - Extension
of portstatsshow when 32 bit counters do not suffice, look for tim_txcrd_z to
observe BB_credit deltas
fabriclog -s - Helps isolate
flapping ports, look out for offline and online sequences
sfpshow - Provides
information on SFP and their state, check for power
Zoning
cfgshow - Displays zoning configuration
defzone --show - Shows default zone settings
nsshow -t - Display name
server entries with additional details
nodefind <alias> - To
find specific device in fabric
nodefind <WWPN> - To
find specific device in fabric
fcping <initiator> <target> - helps isolate end to end
device connectivity and also an easy method to validate zoning
Licensing

Configuration
configdefault - To reset
switch configuration to default
configdownload - To download
a previously uploaded config file
switchshow - Lists connection information
as well first indicator of fabric segmentations
errshow -r - Look for config
events, match events with list in Brocade Message reference guide for suitable
actions
fabstatsshow - flags any
parameter mismatch during merging
fabricshow - Helps identify
domain id conflicts and gives an overview of all fabric members
configure - To set correct
switch and flow control parameters
portcfgshow <port
number> - Display port configuration
portcfgspeed <port
number> - Set or show port speed
portcfgdefaults <port
number> - Set port settings to default
portcfgpersistentenable
<port> - To enable port permanently
portcfgpersistentdisable
<port> - To disable port persistently (across reboots)
portdisable
portenable
portcfgeport - Disable E
