Nexus 5500 - Fabricpath Core Port - Error disabled. Reason:DCX-No ACK in 100 PDUs

Has anyone seen Fabricpath Core Interfaces between two Nexus 5596UP switches error-disabled because of missing DCBX Acks after 50mins?
I do not see interface errors and the peer is another 5500.
Both switches are running 5.1(3)N2(1) with this port config:
int e1/3
switchport mode fabricpath

Can you send the output of
show lldp interface ethernet 1/3
show lldp dcbx interface ethernet 1/3
a workaround may be to disable lldp on both sides on these physical interfaces

  • Error disabled. Reason:DCX-No ACK in 100 PDUs

    Hi,
      I have a customer who lost all connectivity from the ESX host for both networking and FCoE because (as the title suggests) the interfaces were error disabled.  This happened across all 8, dual ported, dual homed CNAs at the same time.  Does anyone have any idea what this error comes from?  The are using ESX 4.0 and are running Nexus 5020 with 4.2(1)N2(1a).
    Thanks,
    Thom

    DCBX Type Length Values(TLV) are packaged within a LLDP frame which  is exchanged between the switch and the CNA. One such Control Sub-TLV is  used for ACK which is sequence based. For example, the switch sends  this control Sub-TLV with SeqNo of 1 and AckNo of 2. The host is  supposed to inverse this and send a LLDP frame with control sub-TLV with  SeqNo of 2 and AckNo of 1.
    We expect this exchange every 30 seconds from the host and if the  switch does not see it for 100 times 30 which is 3000 seconds (or 50  minutes), the switch error disables with following error

    Some commands on the switch which helps in narrowing down root cause.

    Root cause for this problem in most cases is misbehaving CNA/server or incorrect firmware/driver on the CNA.

  • N5K err-disabled a port due to DCX-No ACK in 100 PDUs

    I'm super new to Nexus, so I'm not really sure how to troubleshoot this. I did a quick search and found that this is related to DCBX TLVs in LLDP, which we apparently shouldn't be getting on a regular ethernet port. I'm pretty sure this is just a regular ethernet port. (Like I said, I'm pretty new to nexus. lol)  I wonder if the following output indicates that we are receiving and sending DCBX TLVs in LLDP. If so, it sounds like the interface will go into err-disable state if the server stops sending ACK frames.

    Hi,
    Per the display it  the Server Adapter is doing LLDP DCBX negotiation.
    If not needed, then you might want to check the Server adapter settings.
    DCBX is an extension of LLDP link layer discovery protocol; not restricted for FCOE usage.
    Further informatin on LLDP for Nexus:

  • EEM on port error-disable due to UDLD

    I would like to ask from the EEM community for some assistance in regards to crafting an EEM script for an ME-3800X.  We have one or two appliances whereby the only uplink (TenGigabitEthernet0/1 and/or TenGigabitEthernet0/2) goes into error-disable and caused by UDLD.  What I am looking for is a script to do the following: 
    1.  If the ports TenGigabitEthernet0/1 and/or TenGigabitEthernet0/2 goes into error-disable caused by UDLD or link-flap then disable the port, wait for 5 seconds, enable the port; 
    2.  Wait for 15 seconds and send an email.  
    I only want this EEM to work on the TenGigabitEthernet interfaces and I do not want the EEM script to do this on the access ports.  
    Error-disable recovery is a global option and there's no option to limit on a per-interface level.  
    Thank you in advance. 

    Thanks for responding, Joe. 
    We were not able to take down the error messages but I believe they error messages could be:
    %UDLD-4-UDLD_PORT_DISABLED: UDLD disabled interface Te0/2, unidirectional link detected
    %PM-4-ERR_DISABLE: udld error detected on Te0/2, putting Te0/2 in err-disable state
    Could an EEM script be created when an error message or an event of "unidirectional link detected" occurs, do the following: 
    1.  In privilege mode, issue the command "udld reset".
    2.  Wait for 30 seconds and then send an email. 
    Thanks for your assistance and support, Joe.

  • FI's uplink ports Error Disabled on ENM loop

    Hi,
    I have two UCS6120XP FIs connected to a Cat2948G-GE-TX switch via port 1/3 on each FI. One port on the Cat2948G-GE-TX acts as the uplink port and is connected to the LAN. All ports of the Cat2948G-GE-TX are in VLAN 1 to allow all connected devices to reach the Gateway via the LAN uplink port.
    Now after a while both ports 1/3 on the FIs get error disabled on ENM loop.
    'show cdp neighbor' on the Cat2k shows FIs hanging off of 2/45 & 2/46. The management ports of both FIs are connected to ports 2/1 and 2/2 of the
    Cat2948G-GE-TX as well, as are some other devices.
    I'd like to keep both FI uplink ports enabled for failover scenarios - how can I achieve that w/o the ports getting error-disabled?
    Thanks,
    Matthias

    Hi,
    The reload was to test the loss of a FI prior to going into the production environment. A disassociate/reassociate of a SP made no difference.
    I plan to upgrade to V2.2(1D) and re-test again tomorrow.

  • New Trunking port Error Disabled on Nexus 5000

    I configured my Nexus 5000 ports as so
    Int Eth1000/1/48
    switchport mode trunk
    switchport trunk  allowed vlan 8
    speed 1000
    channel-group 7 mode active
    int Po7

    I configured my 3650 as so:
    int Gig0/23
    switchport trunk encapsulation dot1q
    switchport trunk  allowed vlan 8
    switchport mode trunk
    speed 1000
    channel-group 1 mode active
    Port channel 1
    switchport trunk encapsulation dot1q
    switchport trunk  allowed vlan 8
    switchport mode trunk
    speed 1000
    Both of these ports are connected Int Eth1000/1/48 and int Gig0/23. Int Eth1000/1/48 shut down and when I checked the logs on the N5K it said for the port   ErrorDisabled REASON BPDUguard. I did not configure bpdufilter or bpduguard on either side. What is causing it?
    I found 3 other ports the have bpdufilter on them  would that be it?
    Since the 3560 is an older switch how can I also ensure it get demoted to not be root bridge or secondary root bridge?

    Hi,
    1- You tried to bundle GE and E interfaces with LACP on both switch but you did not mention the other bundle members, however, it looks the etherchannel did not comes up and interfaces work separately.
    As a result, STP has prevented bridging loop and put one of them in errdisable state. I think you must check your etherchannel configuration.
    2- you can use "spanning-tree vlan <> priority 61400" on 3560 switch to make sure it won't be a root bridge.

  • Nexus 5500 - unexplainable mutual-exclusion error when using "conf sync" mode

    We have 2 Nexus 5548UP switches which are running NX-OS 7.0(5)N1(1).
    I'm trying to reconfigure an interface, which was previously configured in conf t (local) mode on both switches, in conf sync mode.
    Original config:
    conf t:
    interface Ethernet104/1/33
    inherit port-profile DevServers
    I've changed the configuration so that the vlan was manually configured and the port-profile was removed from the interface. Otherwise, it was not possible to configure a Port-profile inheritance in conf sync mode (as this was in conflict with the config in local mode).
    Current config:
    conf t:
    interface Ethernet104/1/33
    switchport access vlan 13
    However, when I try to configure a PP inheritance for this interface in conf sync mode, I'm getting the same error as if there were a conflict:
    conf sync:
    interface Ethernet104/1/33
    inherit port-profile DevServers
    commit
    Failed: Verify Failed
    Status: Verify Failure
    Error(s):
    Following commands failed mutual-exclusion checks:
    interface Ethernet104/1/33
            inherit port-profile DevServers
    When I configure another interface (not in use) with exactly the same configuration (so access vlan 13 in conft mode on both switches, and then a PP inheritance in conf sync mode), it is accepted and the configuration is correct. It looks like something is stuck within the NX-OS switch which makes it believe that the PP inheritance is still configured in conf t mode...
    I've had this issue before on another interface, and found somewhere on the internet that the NX-OS keeps an internal database, which is mysteriously not always in sync with the current running-config, and that this could be forece manually with the command "resync-database" in conf-sync mode. On that other interface, this resolved the issue, but this time, it does not work and I keep getting the above error when I want to configure the port-profile.
    Any suggestions?

    Ok... I found the source of the problem (looks to be buggy behaviour).
    Here's my recent blog post that covers a detailed description and a fix/workaround:

  • Nexus 5500 "Mezz not found" error, system wont boot

       Rebooted N5548UP after software upgrade didn't go as planned and now it wont boot up stating mezz not found.    Attempting to get console access to boot the kickstart and load the image again but looking for direction if that doesn't work and what the mezz not found points to ??
       A software upgrade attempt from 5.1.3 to 5.2.1 broke fiber channel connectivity so a reboot to revert back to original 5.1.3 was what got us stuck with a broken reboot for FYI.
    dave

    We had the same problem on a Notebook G71.  If you can get to the BIOS, do a RAM and a Hard Drive test.  Our Hard DRive test failed and we had to get a new hard drive.  When we took the new hard drive through the Recovery phase, we still got a device missing error, not the same one as before though.  We started the process over several times and finally it found what it was looking for and is working fine now.
    Search these forums, you will find a lot of good advice.  I did.

  • Vfc error disabled because of Ethernet port down?

    We are building a new datacenter and is starting to set up the SAN.
    This small DC consist of 2 Nexus 5596UP, a Compellent SAN and 2 Dell M1000e cassis with blade servers.
    naive FC part in Nexus has been easy to set up but we have problems with the FCOE setup.
    Since the blades are not installed yet none of the Ethernet ports are up. As soon as we bind an ethernet port to a vfc the vfc goes to error disable with this message:

    Do the vfc go error disable because the ethernet interface being down? I was under the impression it should just go "down"

  • (Error disabled. Reason:Disabled by Server Mgr triggered)

    I´ve some ports in my Nexus 5k going to err-disable with the following message:
    (Error disabled. Reason:Disabled by Server Mgr triggered)
    These ports are connected in HPBlade 7000 through FEX Nexus B22 does someone know about this errors ? 

    Hi,
    Not sure if you already found the root cause of the issue,but this message generally comes from blade FEX's when there is an internal communication error or no connection between the FEX HIF's and the server chassis/software. This might come when a port is made "admin up" while is not configured or mapped blade from server perspective.
    Thanks,
    Ivan.

  • Error disabled ports

    I have a 3550 switch that gets a error-disabled copper ports. There is no errors ont the port. What else would cause it to be disabled?

    Although there is no error on the port , there should be an error message in the log that should tell you the reason why the port got error disabled like port security violation , loopback detection , etherchannel misconfig etc.
    You can enable errordisable recovery for all different causes by setting a timer. What happens is once this timer expires , the port is brough out of error dsiabled state.
    Here are some of the useful commands.
    D-C3550-2A(config)#errdisable ?
    detect Error disable detection
    recovery Error disable recovery
    D-C3550-2A(config)#errdisable recovery ?
    cause Enable error disable recovery for application
    interval Error disable recovery timer value
    Hope this helps.

  • FabricPath-Datacenter-Interconnection-only with Nexus 5500

    Hi all,
    we will interconnect 3 Datacenters in 3 different locations connected with DWDM.
    The idea was to use 2x NX 5548 in each location to setup a FP Cloud between the sides.
    But I am not sure, if we can use NX5500 in spine and leaf mode !
    Or do we need a N7K pair as spine.
    The documentation is not 100% clear at this point.
    Would be great if someone can answer that ;-)

  • Campus Manager report - Ports in error Disabled state

    Hi,
    I have LMS 3.2 and I wonder how Campus Manager collects information from the switch to generate a report of discrepancies, namely a report of "Ports in Error Disabled state"??
    I find that I have ports in errDisabled state but Campus Manger doesn´t show this information in "Ports in Error Dissabled state" report. What could be the problem?
    Thanks.

    Hi,
    Campus Manager do snmpwalk on the ciscoErrDisableMIB to get the status of the error disabled ports.
    Thanks,
