DescriptionItem
Number of the row.No
Status of a logical path.
• Normal. The path is established and ready to use for copy operations.
• Nothing. An operation for configuring or deleting the path is in progress.
• Initialization Failed. An error occurred when the connection between local and remote
systems was initializing. The probable causes are:
- No cable is connected to the local system.
- No cable is connected to the remote system.
- No cable is connected to the network device between the two systems.
• Communication Time Out. This status indicates one of the following:
- A timeout error has occurred between the primary and the secondary storage systems.
- A logic error is detected between the primary and the secondary storage systems.
• Resource Shortage (Port). The local system rejected configuration of the logical path
connection. Logical path resources in the local system might be in use for other connections.
• Resource Shortage (Pair-Port). The remote system rejected configuration of the logical path
connection. Logical path resources in the remote system might be in use for other connections.
• Serial Number Mismatch. The serial number of the storage system connected to this logical
path does not match the serial number specified by the Add DKC dialog box.
• Invalid Port. The port is not an initiator port.
• Pair-Port Number Mismatch. Indicates one of the following:
- The specified port number is incorrect.
- The port in the remote system is physically disconnected from the local system.
• Pair-Port Type Mismatch. The port on the remote system is not an RCU target port.
• Communication Failed. A communication timeout error has occurred on the path between
the local and remote systems.
