Monitoring performance using Web Tools

The Brocade 48000 with an FC4-18i and the Brocade 7500 include physical FC ports, logical FC
ports, and GbE ports. The Brocade 48000 with a or FC4-16IP blade includes physical FC ports and
GbE ports. Not all of the performance monitoring graphs support the logical FC ports and GbE
ports.
Table 8 lists each graph and indicates the supported port types for each. The port selection lists for
each graph display the supported ports for that graph.
Switch Percent Utilization The percentage utilization for each port in a switch. For the Brocade 48000
and Brocade DCX Director, this graph displays the percent utilization for
each slot. You can customize this graph to display information for particular
ports.
Port Snapshot Error The CRC error count between sampling periods for all the ports on a switch.
For the Brocade 48000 and Brocade DCX Director, this graph displays the
CRC error rate for each slot. You can customize this graph to display
information for particular ports.

SID/DID Performance The traffic between the SID-DID pair on the switch being managed. For
more information, see “Creating SID-DID Performance Graphs” on
page 126.
SCSI vs. IP Traffic The percentage of SCSI versus IP frame traffic on each individual port. For
more information, see “Creating an SCSI vs. IP Traffic Graph” on page 127.
AL_PA Errors CRC errors for a given port and a given AL_PA. For more information, see
“Creating AL_PA Error Graphs” on page 129.
SCSI Commands by port and LUN
(R, W, R/W)
The total number of read/write commands on a given port to a specific LUN.
For more information, see “Creating SCSI Command Graphs” on page 128.
