Basic CommandsspportspeedDescription!Set or get the SP port speedThe naviseccli or navicli spportspeed command gets or sets the SPport speed. You can set the port speed on either SP directly orthrough the other SP. The port speed you can set and the optionsavailable depend upon your storage-system type.For a port speed to work, the HBA, switch, and SP must all support it.You can set the ports of an SP to different speeds if the ports connectto switches or HBAs with different speeds.CAUTIONIncompatible port speeds will prevent the two devices fromcommunicating. The CLI prompts for confirmation as followsbefore executing the -set command.Changing the port speed is a disruptive function. Verifythat the other device connected to the storage system,supports the new speed. If the speed settings areincompatible, the storage system will be unable tocommunicate with the other connected device.Are you sure you want to change speed of SP x Port n fromn Gigabit to n Gigabit ?SyntaxPrerequisitesOptionsspportspeed is used with naviseccli (described on page 37) or navicli(described on page 45) as follows:spportspeed -get [-isauto] [-avail] [-requested] [-type] [-phsical]For naviseccli, you must have a user account on the storage systemon which you want to execute the command.For navicli, you must have a user entry in the Navisphere agentconfiguration file.-isautoIndicates whether the Auto-Negotiate feature is turned on or off.The CLI returns a yes value if the feature is turned on, a no valueif the feature is turned off, and a not supported value if thefeature is not supported.279
