perfMonitorShow
Displays end-to-end, filter-based, and ISL monitors on a port.
Synopsis perfmonitorshow --class monitor_class [slotnumber/]portnumber [interval]
Description Use this command to display previously created monitors on a port. Monitor classes include
end-to-end monitors (EE), filter-based monitors (FLT), and Inter-Switch Link monitors (ISL).
ISL monitors are automatically activated on E_Ports (not including trunk slaves). End-to-end
monitors are created using perfAddEEMonitor. Filter-based monitors are created using
perfAddIPMonitor, perfAddReadMonitor, perfAddRWMonitor, perfAddSCSIMonitor,
perfAddUserMonitor, or perfAddWriteMonitor.
For end-to-end monitors, this command displays (if no interval operand is specified):
Key The monitor number
SID Source Port ID
DID Destination Port ID
Owner_app Telnet or Web Tools
Owner_ip_addr The IP address of the originator that created the EE monitor. Displays the IPv6
address if applications pass the IP address while adding monitor. If the
monitor is added using performance monitor CLIs, this field displays N/A.
Tx_count Number of FC words transmitted
Rx_count Number of FC words received
Crc_count Number of frames with CRC errors
If you do not specify a value for the interval operand, this command displays end-to-end monitor
information and a cumulative count of the traffic detected by the monitor. If you specify a value for
the interval operand, this command displays a snapshot of the traffic at the specified interval.
For filter-based monitors, this command can display (if no interval operand is specified) the
following:
Key The monitor number
Alias The monitor alias name
Owner_app Telnet or Web Tools
Owner_ip_addr The IP address of the originator that created the filter monitor. Displays the
IPv6 address if applications pass the IP address while adding monitor. If the
monitor is added using performance monitor CLIs, this field displays N/A.
Frame_count Cumulative 64-bit frame count
If you do not specify a value for the interval operand, this command displays a cumulative count of
the traffic detected by the monitor. If you specify a value for the interval operand, this command
displays a snapshot of the traffic at the specified interval.
For ISL monitors, whether or not interval is specified, the command displays:
Tx_count 64-bit cumulative ISL transmit count for the whole ISL
Num_ports Number of ports in this ISL (one for a standalone ISL, more for trunks)
