To Verify the A2/B2 FC Link
You can check the A2/B2 FC link using the Storage Automated Diagnostic

Diagnostic Environment’s implementation of diagnostic tests verifies the operation
of user-selected components. Using the Topology view, you can select specific tests,
subtests, and test options.
Refer to Chapter 5 of the Storage Automated Diagnostic Environment User’s Guide for
more information.
