This is the error "FC Port Problem ". The array is in a warning state.What next should i do to avoid the array from degrading

[Torsten.]

Try to get more info:

dsp -c
dsp -e
dsp -s

If you have commandview running somewhere, run

armdsp -a

[Lester Dias]

Have a look at the LEDs on the link control card (LCC). From your dsp -f output, the disk shelf should be the one with the rotary address switch set to 5 - the very bottom shelf in the rack? The link active LED should be on. The 10 disks in that shelf are included - seen by the array contoller through the other LCC.

If the link LED is off you could try reseating the FC cable to the LCC. The FC port problem does seem like bad connectivity to the port. The next stage would be to reseat the LCC itself but take care. There are many customer replaceable items in the VA but the LCC is not one of them.
