Monitoring performance using Web Tools
8
The Brocade FC4-18i blade and the Brocade 7500 include physical FC ports, logical FC ports, and
GbE ports. The Brocade 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, 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, this graph displays the CRC error
rate for each slot. You can customize this graph to display information for
particular ports.
TABLE 7 Advanced performance monitoring graphs
Graph Type Displays
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 104.
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 105.
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 107.
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 106.
