Excluding a port from bottleneck detection
13
For trunking, if you exclude a slave port from bottleneck detection, the exclusion has no effect as
long as the port is a trunk slave. The exclusion takes effect only if the port becomes a trunk master
or leaves the trunk.
Use the following procedure to exclude a port from bottleneck detection:
1. Connect to the switch to which the target port belongs and log in using an account with admin
permissions.
2. Enter the bottleneckmon --exclude command to exclude the port from bottleneck detection.
To later include the port, enter the bottleneckmon --include command.
Example showing how to exclude a single port from bottleneck detection
This example excludes port 7 only from bottleneck detection. See
“Disabling bottleneck detection
on page 392 for more information on this command.
NOTE
Excluding the master port excludes the entire trunk, even if individual slave ports are not excluded.
switch:admin> bottleneckmon --exclude 7
switch:admin> bottleneckmon --status

Example showing how to re-include bottleneck detection for a port
This restores bottleneck detection for port 7. Notice that the “Excluded ports” section is not
displayed as there are no excluded ports.
switch:admin> bottleneckmon --include 7
switch:admin> bottleneckmon --status
