Displaying the status of the track changes feature
Use the following procedure to display the status of the track changes feature:
1. Connect to the switch and log in using an account with admin permissions.
2. Enter the trackChangesShow command.
The status of the track changes feature is displayed as either on or off. The display includes
whether or not the track changes feature is configured to send SNMP traps.
switch:admin> trackchangesshow
Track changes status: ON
Track changes generate SNMP-TRAP: NO
Viewing the switch status policy threshold values
The policy parameter determines the number of failed or inoperable units for each contributor that
triggers a status change in the switch.
Each parameter can be adjusted so that a specific threshold must be reached before that
parameter changes the overall status of a switch to MARGINAL or DOWN. For example, if the
FaultyPorts DOWN parameter is set to 3, the status of the switch will change if three ports fail. Only
one policy parameter needs to pass the MARGINAL or DOWN threshold to change the overall status
of the switch.
For more information about setting policy parameters, see the Fabric Watch Administrator’s Guide.
Use the following procedure to view the switch status policy threshold values:
1. Connect to the switch and log in using an account with admin permissions.
2. Enter the switchStatusPolicyShow command.
Whenever there is a switch change, an error message is logged and an SNMP
connUnitStatusChange trap is sent.
The output is similar to the following:
ecp:admin> switchstatuspolicyshow
switch:admin> switchstatuspolicyshow
The current overall switch status policy parameters:
Down Marginal
