Synopsis

Description

Use this command to save the current Performance Monitor configuration for end-to-end (EE) and
filter configuration settings of performance monitoring into nonvolatile memory. Configurations are
saved persistently across power cycles.

The number of monitors that can be saved to flash memory is limited as follows:

16 EE monitors

16 filter monitors

A total number of 512 monitors per switch

When there are more than 512 monitors in the system, monitors are saved to the flash in the
following order:

1. For each port (from 0 to MAX_PORT), the EE monitors in each port are saved to the flash first.

2. Filter monitors for each port are saved next.

When the total monitors per port or switch exceeds the limit, the following message is displayed:

“Performance monitor count has exceeded limit. some monitors have been discarded.”
