Command Summary
4-22 SN0054614-00 K
The data pattern must be in a two-character hexadecimal pattern in the range
of 00–FF. The hexadecimal letters can be uppercase or lowercase. The default
pattern is random, for example:
# scli -kl(<hba instance> | <hba wwpn>) DP Random
To enter a customized value (in the range of 00–FF), type:
# scli -kl (<hba instance> | <hba wwpn>) DP <param value>
In addition to a hex pattern, you can enter a compliant random data pattern
(CRPAT), jitter tolerance pattern (CJTPAT), or supply noise test sequence
(CSPAT) for a loopback test. For example:
# scli -kl (<hba instance> | <hba wwpn>) DP CJTPAT
Table 4-7 lists all valid data patterns:
