Deleting frame types

Deleting a frame type removes the entire configuration, including configured thresholds and
associated actions. It also removes any frame monitors of the specified type from all ports.

You can delete only user-defined frame types; you cannot delete the pre-defined frame types.

1. Connect to the switch and log in as admin.

2. Enter the fmConfig

--

delete command to delete a specific frame type.

Example

switch:admin> fmconfig --delete MyFrameMonitor

Adding frame monitors to a port

If the switch does not have enough resources to add a frame monitor to a port, then other frame
monitors on that port might have to be deleted to free resources.

1. Connect to the switch and log in as admin.

2. Enter the fmConfig

--

addmonitor command to add a frame monitor to one or more ports.

The set of ports to be monitored is automatically saved to the persistent configuration unless
you specify the -nosave option on this command.

3.

Example

This example adds a standard SCSI frame type monitor to ports 3 through 12.

switch:admin> fmconfig --addmonitor SCSI -port 3-12

Removing frame monitors from a port

1. Connect to the switch and log in as admin.

2. Enter the fmConfig

--

delmonitor command to remove a specific monitor from one or more

ports.

The set of ports to be unmonitored is automatically saved to the persistent configuration
unless you specify the -nosave option on this command.

Example

The following example removes the user-defined frame monitor, MyFrameMonitor, from all ports.

switch:admin> fmconfig --delmonitor MyFrameMonitor

Saving frame monitor configuration

If you assign or remove frame monitors on ports, the list of ports to be monitored is automatically
saved persistently, unless you specify the

-

nosave option.
