sysMonitor

-current

Displays current values for a specified class or area. This operand is optional and
valid only with the --show option. The output includes the class, area, port
number, circuit ID (for the Brocade 7800 and FS8-24 only), Value, State, and
Monitoring Status (pause or continue). The State field reports whether the current
value is above, in range, or below (info) the configured threshold. If no class or
area is specified, this command displays current values for all Fabric Watch
classes and areas (not only those configured with this command).

The following operands are optional with the --apply, --cancel, and --show
options; if omitted, default thresholds are used.

-action_level def | cust

Configures or displays default or custom action settings.

-thresh_level def | cust

Configures or displays default or custom thresholds.

--config mem | cpu

Configures the parameters for monitoring system CPU or memory usage. The
following parameters are configurable with this command.

-poll

Specifies the polling interval in seconds. Valid values are 10 to 3600 seconds. The
default value is 120 seconds. This operand is optional.

-retry

Specifies the number of retries before Fabric Watch takes action. The default
value is 3.

-limit

Specifies a usage limit as percentage of available resources.

When used to configure CPU monitoring, specify a value in the 1 to 100 range.
When CPU usage exceeds the limit a Fabric Watch alert is triggered. The default
CPU limit 75%.

When used to configure memory monitoring the limit value must be greater than
the low limit and smaller than the high limit. When the limit is exceeded, Fabric
Watch sends out a RASlog WARNING message. When usage returns below the
limit, Fabric Watch sends a RASlog INFO message. Valid values are in the range
between the low limit and 90%. The default value is 60%.

The following operands are valid only with --config mem. They provide two
additional limits above and below the middle usage limit.

-high_limit high_limit

Specifies an upper usage limit for memory as percentage of available memory.
This value must be greater than the value set by the -limit parameter. The
maximum is 90%. When memory usage exceeds this limit, Fabric Watch
generates a CRITICAL RASlog message. The default is 80%.

-low_limit low_limit

Specifies a lower usage limit for memory as percentage of available memory. This
value must be smaller than the value set by the -limit parameter. When memory
usage exceeds or falls below this limit, Fabric Watch generates an INFO RASlog
message. The default for all platforms is 50%.

-action actions

Specifies the actions to be taken if system resources exceed the specified high
threshold or fall outside the boundaries defined by the high and low thresholds.
Valid values are snmp, raslog, both, or none. The default is none. If more than
one action is specified, actions must be separated by commas.
