-port port_list

Specifies one or more ports on which to install the monitor for the specified
frame type. This operand is optional; if omitted, the monitor is installed on all
eligible ports. A port list can consist of the following:

One or more single ports, preceded by a slot number followed by a slash
(/) on bladed systems. Multiple ports must be separated by a comma, for
example, 8 or 5/8 or 3,5,8.

One or more port ranges where the beginning and end port are
separated by a dash, for example, 8-13 or 5/8-13, or 3/4-9. A port range
cannot span multiple slots.

-nosave

Overrides the default behavior of fmConfig --create, which automatically
saves the configuration and collected data persistently. When -nosave is
specified, the configuration is nonpersistent and will be erased upon reboot.
-nosave resembles the behavior of the legacy filter monitor commands. This
operand is optional and valid only with the --create, --addmonitor and
--

delmonitor options. It is not valid with the --change option.

-highth value

Sets the high threshold value for the specified frame monitor. This operand is
optional. High threshold values and defaults are platform-specific. Refer to
the Fabric Watch Administrator’s Guide for more information.

-timebase time_base

Specifies the time interval between two samples to be compared. Valid
intervals are:

day

Samples are compared once a day.

hour

Samples are compared once every hour.

minute

Samples are compared once every minute.

second

Samples are compared once every second.

-action value

Specifies the action triggered if the frame count for the specified frame type
exceeds the configured high threshold. Valid actions include snmp, raslog,
portlog, email or none. This operand is optional; if omitted, defaults are used
(snmp, raslog). Note that fmConfig only supports specification of high
thresholds and the actions taken when the frame count exceeds the
configured high threshold. Use the thConfig command with the filter class
operand to configure and display other Fabric Watch thresholds, and the
actions to be taken when the counters fall below or in-between configured
Fabric Watch thresholds.

-force

Enables the Frame Monitor feature without confirmation. This operand is
used only once with options that implicitly enable the new feature and disable
the legacy commands. These options include --create, --addmonitor,
--

delmonitor, and --show. When executed without -force, these commands

prompt for confirmation.

--

save frame_type Saves the set of ports on which the specified frame type is monitored to the

persistent configuration. If a frame type is not specified, this command saves
the port configurations of all existing frame types. This operation removes the
configuration for ports not monitored.
