perfAddWriteMonitor
Adds a filter-based performance monitor for the SCSI write command.
Synopsis
perfaddwritemonitor [slot/]port [alias]
Description
Use this command to create a filter-based monitor that counts the number of SCSI FCP write
commands in Fibre Channel frames. Only frames transmitted are counted.
Execution of this command displays a numeric key that uniquely identifies the monitor. Use the
perfMonitorShow command for a listing of valid keys and user-defined aliases.
Notes
This command is being deprecated along with the commands listed below. Use the new fmConfig
command instead.
•
perfAddIPMonitor
•
perfAddReadMonitor
•
perfAddRWMonitor
•
perfAddSCSIMonitor
•
perfAddUserMonitor
•
perfDelFilterMonitor
•
perfShowFilterMonitor
For the perfMonitorShow and perfMonitorClear commands, only the management of Filter
Monitors is being deprecated (FLT class); these commands continue to be supported for managing
classes other than Filter monitors. Management of filter-based monitors is provided through the
new fmConfig interface.
While the legacy commands are still operational in the Fabric OS 6.4.0 release, their use is
incompatible with the new fmConfig command. Once you use the new command to configure and
manage filter-based monitors, you can no longer use the old commands. The legacy commands
and options will be removed in Fabric OS v6.5.0.
This command requires an Advanced Performance Monitoring license.
This command is not supported on virtual FC ports (VE/VEX_Port), EX_Port, M (Mirror) ports and
GbE ports.
The execution of this command is subject to Virtual Fabric or Admin Domain restrictions that may
be in place. Refer to chapter 1, "Using Fabric OS commands" and Appendix A, "Command
Availability" for details.
Operands
This command has the following operands:
slot
For bladed systems only, specifies the slot number of the port on which the
monitor is to be added, followed by a slash (/).
port
Specifies the number of the port on which the monitor is to be added, relative
to its slot for bladed systems. Use switchShow for a list of valid ports.
alias
Specifies a name for this monitor. Strings exceeding 10 characters are
truncated. To accommodate spaces, the string must be surrounded by
quotation marks. Spaces count toward the character limit but are removed.
This operand is optional. The default alias is “SCSI_Write”.
