DESCRIPTION Use this command to create and modify groups of elements that are to be monitored using the same set
of thresholds. For example, you can create a group of ports that behave in a similar manner, such as
UNIX ports or long-distance ports.
The elements in a group must be the same type: ports, circuits, or SFP transceivers. By creating a group
of similar elements, you can manage these elements as a single entity.
The maximum number of user-defined groups is 64 per logical switch.
NOTES This command requires a Fabric Vision license.
The execution of this command is subject to Virtual Fabric or Admin Domain restrictions that may be in

example, "8-13" or "2/8-13" on bladed systems.
• A set of ports and port ranges separated by commas, for example,
"3,5,7-10,15" or "2/3,2/5,3/7-10,4/15" on bladed systems.
Circuit groups:
• A single circuit in VE_Port/circuit format, for example, "33/5".
• A circuit range in VE_Port/circuit format, for example, "33/1-3".
• A set of circuits separated by commas, for example, "33/1-3,33/5".
