Primary FSN is down running on standy one

Our primary FNS link is down and it is running on standby one. Most likely issue is between the core switch and FSN. What information I can gather so I can present it to our network team for further troubleshooting. Sorry new to VNX. Thank you.

"server_sysconfig" is the CLI command that will help you.  You can use it to check the physical state of each connected interface in the FSN.  Use server_sysconfig server_2 -virtual to get a list of interfaces, then add -info for more detail.  Like this:

[nasadmin@testvnx ~]$ server_sysconfig server_2 -virtual

server_2 :

Virtual devices:

po1   devices=cge-1-0 cge-1-1 cge-1-2 cge-1-3

fsn    failsafe nic devices :

trk    trunking devices : po1

[nasadmin@bhgcelerravg2cs0 ~]$ server_sysconfig server_2 -virtual -info po1

server_2 :

*** Trunk po1: Link is Up ***

*** Trunk po1: Statistical Load Balancing is IP ***

Device     Link Duplex Speed

------------------------------------------------------------------------

cge-1-0    Up   Full     1000 Mbs

cge-1-1    Up   Full     1000 Mbs

cge-1-2    Up   Full     1000 Mbs

cge-1-3    Up   Full     1000 Mbs

In your case, if you check your FSN, you should see a link down on it.  Then, if you check your individual interfaces, you can figure out which one is down, and have your networking team check the physical interface.

If you paste your output from server_sysconfig server_2 -virtual and run -info for each device, we might be able to provide further assistance.  Let us know if that helps!
