4208.0. "Hubwatch to check the DECserver 90LT port" by HGOVC::SHUMCF () Tue Feb 11 1997 02:24

    Hello,
    
    Could anyone help to confirm Hubwatch can see the hardware failure of
    the port of DECserver 90L+. If not, will it be any alternatives such
    that the customer can identify the hardware problem rather than
    swapping with other associated components like cables,
    terminals/printers, etc to identify the problem.
    
    Thanks,

4208.1Framing errors, and LAT errorsKERNEL::FREKESLike a thief in the nightTue Feb 11 1997 08:5512
    What do you mean by a port failure?
    
    I have had a look at both HUBwatch and ClearVISN, and the only details
    you can see are the actual server counters, (LAT & physical counters).
    
    The port only tells you framing errors. You could try a factory reset
    but that would do the whole server. 
    
    Apart from that there is little else you can do.

    If a DECserver 90L+ port is dead, can it be viewed by
    Hubwatch/ClearVisn ? Can the framing error detected on this port give
    us some hints ?
    
    Thanks,
