%PORT-5-IF_DOWN_BIT_ERR_RT_THRES_EXCEEDED: %$VSAN 1%$ Interface fc1/9 is down (Error disabled - bit error rate too high)
%MODULE-4-MOD_WARNING: Module 1 (serial: JAF1333BABG) reported warnings on ports 1/9-1/9 (Fibre Channel) due to MAC Bit error exceeded threshold in device 92 (device error 0xc5c00503)
The bit errors can occur for the following reasons:
Per FC standard at 1Gbit speed bit error rate threshold is detected when 15 error bursts occur in a 5-minute period. By default, the switch disables the interface when the threshold is reached.You will have to reenable the interface in Device Manager or CLI command "no shut".
You can configure the switch to not disable an interface when the threshold is crossed. By default, the threshold disables the interface.
1. To troubleshoot the physical layer, follow article 8050 .
2. If the SFP is to be replaced, please review and follow article 14001 .
