Brocade Communications Systems FastIron User Manual

Examples
The following example configures the sysmon options for fabric adaptor links:
Brocade(config)# sysmon fa link threshold 3 7
Brocade(config)# sysmon fa link action syslog
Brocade(config)# sysmon fa link log-backoff 15
System monitoring for Cross Bar
On FSX devices, errors typically detected in the cross bar include:
• Bad (IP) headers
• Bad length errors
• Reformat errors
Besides the error count, sysmon also checks for connectivity of SFM/XBAR links. This happens at the
interval defined by the sysmon-timer command generally or specifically for cross bar.
Use the following commands to configure and display the statistics of cross bar or switch fabric module:
• sysmon xbar error-count on page 273
• sysmon xbar link on page 274
• show sysmon logs on page 278
• show sysmon counters on page 278
• show sysmon config on page 282
• show sysmon system sfm on page 283
sysmon xbar error-count
Configures system monitoring for cross bar errors. The no form of this command resets the parameters
to default values.
Syntax
sysmon xbar error-count { threshold events polling-interval | log-backoff value | action { none |
syslog } }
no sysmon xbar error-count
Parameters
threshold
Defines the failure threshold for the cross bar error-count event. The threshold is defined as
N/W, where N is the number of events, and W is the number of consecutive polling periods.
When the threshold is reached, actions configured for this event type will take place. Note
that a threshold of 1/W implies that there is no threshold, and no event will be triggered.
events
Specifies the threshold in terms of the number of events. Valid values are 1 through
10.
polling-interval
Specifies the number of polling windows. The device polls the internal registers at the
interval specified by the sysmon timer value. Valid values 1-32. However, the polling
window number must be equal or greater than the number of events.
log-backoff
