OSA-Express3 Port Errors Workspace
The OSA-Express3 Port Errors workspace displays error data for
the OSA-Express3 Ethernet adapters. The OSA-Express3 Port Errors
workspace is accessed only as a drill down from the OSA-Express3 Ports
Summary workspace using Channel Number and Port Number as link attributes.
To display the OSA-Express3 Port Errors workspace, do the following:
- Click the OSA navigator item for a specific
TCP/IP stack to display the OSA Channels workspace.
- If the value for the OSA channel Subtype attribute
in the OSA-Express Channels Summary Table is osaexp3gigabitEthernet,
osaexp3oneThousandBaseTEthernet, or osaexp3tenGigabitEthernet, right-click
the Link icon by this table row.
- A conditional link is displayed in the list of available links.
Select OSA-Express3 Ports to display the OSA-Express3 Ports Summary workspace.
- Right-click on the Link icon by one
of the rows in the Ports Summary for Channel xyz Summary
Table and select OSA-Express3 Port Errors.
The OSA-Express3 Port Errors workspace contains the following views:
- Current Collisions: Displays the number
of single collisions, multiple collisions, excessive collisions or
late collisions encountered by a successfully transmitted packet over
the current collection interval. The information is presented in
a bar graph where:
- Yellow represents the number of single collisions
over the current collection period.
- Blue represents the number of multiple collisions
over the current collection period.
- Pink represents the number of excessive
collisions over the current collection period.
- Green represents the number of late collisions
over the current collection period.
This data applies to a port selected from the OSA-Express3 Ports
Summary workspace
- Current Missed Packets or Not Stored Frames:
Displays the number of missed packets received or the number of frames
received when there were no available descriptor buffers available
to store frames by the specified port over the current collection
interval. The information is presented in a bar graph where:
- Yellow represents the number of not stored
frames received over the current collection period.
- Blue represents the number of missed packets
received over the current collection period.
This data applies to a port selected from the OSA-Express3 Ports
Summary workspace.
- Current CRC Errors or Jabber Frames: Displays
the number of cyclic redundancy check (CRC) errors on packets received
on the LAN or the number of jabber frames received by the specified
port over the current collection interval. The information is presented
in a bar graph where:
- Yellow represents the number of packets
with CRC errors received over the current collection period.
- Blue represents the number of jabber frames
received over the current collection period.
This data applies to a port selected from the OSA-Express3 Ports
Summary workspace.
- Current Undersized or Oversized Frames:
Displays the number of undersized frames received or oversized frames
received by the specified port over the current collection interval.
The information is presented in a bar graph where:
- Yellow represents the number of undersized
frames received over the current collection period.
- Blue represents the number of oversize frames
received over the current collection period.
This data applies to a port selected from the OSA-Express3 Ports
Summary workspace.
