What is fcmPortLinkResets?

This object counts the number of times the Link Reset protocol was initiated on a Fibre Channel port, including Loop Initialization Primitive (LIP) events on arbitrated loop ports. It indicates how many times the port has recovered from link errors or been re-synchronized. An operator uses this counter to identify ports experiencing instability or repeated link resets that may indicate cable or hardware issues.
