Switch monitoring

Before entering the switchStatusPolicySet command, plan your switch status policy. Determine your
system requirements and the factors that affect its monitors.

NOTE
Based on the configuration of the core blade component of the switch status policy, Fabric Watch
generates two RASlogs when a core blade is removed either on the Brocade DCX or the Brocade
DCX-4S. For example, if the Down and Marginal configuration is 0 and 1 on the DCX, upon removal of
the first core blade, Fabric Watch generates one RASLog for the switch status policy and the other
RASLog for the error itself.
