perfSetPortEEMask

Sets the overall mask for end-to-end (EE) performance monitors.

SYNOPSIS

perfsetporteemask [slot/]port
"TxSIDMsk " "TxDIDMsk " "RxSIDMsk" "RxDIDMsk"

DESCRIPTION

Use this command to set the mask for an end-to-end (EE) performance monitor. This command allows
selecting the Fibre Channel frames for which to collect performance statistics. When setting the EE mask
on a port, all existing EE monitors on that port are deleted.

This command controls all three address fields (Domain ID, Area ID, and AL_PA ID) of both the source
ID and destination ID, which can be used to trigger the monitor.

The address mask is of the form "dd:aa:pp", where "dd" is the Domain ID mask, "aa" is the Area ID mask,
and "pp" is AL_PA ID mask.

Specify the following values to turn a specific field on or off:

00

Specifies that the field does not trigger EE monitors.

ff

Specifies that the field does trigger EE monitors.

The default EE mask value is 0xffffff.

When a mask is set (0xff), the corresponding field triggers the monitor. If the mask is unset (0x00), the
corresponding field is ignored.

For example, "00:ff:00" uses only the Area ID to trigger the EE monitor.

There is only one EE mask per port. The mask is applied to all eight EE monitors available on a port. The
default EE mask value upon power-on is already set. When ISL monitoring is enabled, the EE mask on
E_Ports is controlled automatically and existing mask values for E_Ports are over-written.

NOTES

This command requires an Advanced Performance Monitoring license.

This command is not supported on virtual FC ports (VE/VEX_Port), EX_Port, M (Mirror) ports and GbE
ports.

The execution of this command is subject to Virtual Fabric or Admin Domain restrictions that may be in
place. Refer to Chapter 1, "Using Fabric OS Commands" and Appendix A, "Command Availability" for
details.

OPERANDS

This command has the following operands:

slot

For bladed systems only, this operand specifies the slot number of the port on
which the monitor is to be updated, followed by a slash (/).

port

Specifies the number of the port on which the EE mask is to be updated, relative
to its slot for bladed systems. Use switchShow for a list of valid ports.

TxSIDMsk

Specify the transmitting source ID mask in dd:aa:pp format, with quotation marks,
where dd is the domain ID mask, aa is the Area ID mask, and pp is AL_PA ID
mask. For example, "00:ff:00" uses only the Area ID to trigger the EE monitor.

Specify the following values to turn a specific field on or off:

00

Specifies that the field does not trigger EE monitors.
