Examples

The following example sets the threshold to 3 events over 7 consecutive polling periods:

Brocade(config)# sysmon threshold 3 7

System monitoring on FCX and ICX devices

On FCX and ICX devices, system monitoring monitors the following errors:

• ECC errors.
• Link errors.

These errors are monitored on a stack unit basis.

Use the following commands configure and display the status of system monitoring on fabric adaptors:

sysmon ecc-error

on page 303

sysmon link-error

on page 304

sysmon ecc-error

Configures how sysmon handles ECC errors. The no version of this command disables system
monitoring on internal ECC errors.

Syntax

sysmon ecc-error -count { threshold events polling-interval | log-backoff value | action { none |
syslog } }

no sysmon fa error-count

Parameters

threshold

Defines the threshold for errors. 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 the action will always 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

If an error condition persists, it will be continuously logged (internally and/or externally to
syslog as defined by the action). The log back-off count skips configured number of logs
before logging again.

action

Specifies the action to take when error count exceeds the specified threshold and log back-
off values.
