NOTE
Extreme Networks does not recommend configuring an interval of less than 6 seconds. Doing this can cause
excessive CPU utilization.
Disabling Backplane Diagnostics. Building upon the previous example, the following example disables
backplane diagnostics on slot 3:
disable sys-health-check slot 3
Backplane diagnostic packets are no longer sent, and the polling interval goes from 7 seconds to 70
seconds.
To return to the "default" settings of sending backplane diagnostic packets every 6 seconds (when
enabled) and polling the system every 60 seconds, specify 6 for the
interval using the following
command:
configure sys-health-check interval 6
Example on the BlackDiamond 8800 Family of Switches
This section contains a series of two examples for:
● Enabling and configuring backplane diagnostics
● Disabling backplane diagnostics
Enabling and Configuring Backplane Diagnostics. The following example:
● Enables backplane diagnostic packets on slot 3
● Configures backplane diagnostic packets to be sent every 7 seconds
1 Enable backplane diagnostic packets on slot 3 using the following command:
enable sys-health-check slot 3
When you enable backplane diagnostic packets on slot 3, the timer runs at the default rate of 5
seconds.
2 Configure backplane diagnostic packets to be sent every 7 seconds using the following command:
configure sys-health-check interval 7
NOTE
Extreme Networks does not recommend configuring an interval of less than 5 seconds. Doing this can cause
excessive CPU utilization.
Disabling Backplane Diagnostics. Building upon the previous example, the following example disables
backplane diagnostics on slot 3:
disable sys-health-check slot 3
Backplane diagnostic packets are no longer sent, but the configured interval for sending backplane
diagnostic packets remains at 7 seconds. The next time you enable backplane diagnostic packets, the
health checker sends the backplane diagnostics packets every 7 seconds.
