Setting bottleneck detection alerts
You can configure Fabric OS to log per-port alerts based on the latency and congestion history of
the port. Alerts are generated based on the number of affected seconds over a specified period of
time. If the number of affected seconds is higher than the threshold, an alert is generated.
This evaluation is done independently for latency and congestion.
The bottleneckmon -alert parameters described below determine whether an alert is generated
and what for.
shows an interval of 12 seconds, in which 6 seconds are affected by a
congestion bottleneck and 3 seconds are affected by a latency bottleneck.
