FIGURE 11 Disabling a threshold
3. Enable a threshold
To start monitoring a selected element, use the enable a threshold option as follows:
1. Type 3 at the command prompt.
The system generates output similar to that in Figure 12, but the output you see varies based
on the class and area you selected.
1 : refresh
2 : disable a threshold
3 : enable a threshold
4 : advanced configuration
5 : return to previous page
Select choice => : (1..5) 3
The numerical values shown in between the brackets (in this case, 216-223) correspond to the
index numbers of the elements within the area. The first element is always selected by default.
2. Type the index number of the element for which Fabric Watch should enable monitoring.
Fabric Watch redraws the element table with the selected element enabled. A second row of
information about the selected element appears, and the status of the element is set to
enabled.
