thconfig --help

DESCRIPTION

Use this command to configure thresholds for Fabric Watch event monitoring for the SFP (small
form-factor pluggable),fabric, filter, end-to-end performance monitor, and security classes or to display
the configuration. If configured areas exceed the currently effective threshold settings, the Fabric Watch
daemon can take one or more of the following actions:

•

Send an SNMP message.

•

Log a RASlog message.

•

Send an E-mail alert.

•

Locks the port log (only applicable to SFP state change area and FABRIC class).

The thConfig command follows a transaction model. When you configure thresholds and actions with
the --set option, the changes are saved persistently to nonvolatile storage, but the changes do not
become effective until you apply the configuration. The --apply option allows you to toggle between
default settings and your own saved custom configuration and to apply actions and thresholds
separately. You may choose to use default thresholds together with a customized subset of available
actions, or you may modify some of the thresholds and use the default actions. Use the -nosave option
to save the configuration nonpersistently, and use --cancel to remove a nonpersistent configuration.

For more information on Fabric Watch threshold configuration procedures, including default values for
specific area high/low thresholds, refer to the Fabric Watch Administrator's Guide.
