Using Fabric Watch with Web Tools

Figure 16-1 Fabric Watch Module (with Alarm Notification Tab Displayed)

You can administer Fabric Watch operations through the Fabric Watch module in Web Tools (see

Figure 16-1).

The Fabric Watch navigation tree, on the left side of the module, displays the available classes. The

classes are organized in a set of folders. Not all classes are available for all switches.

Use the Fabric Watch module if you want to:

• Configure custom threshold values on particular elements.

• Place limits on the acceptable values of those elements and enable the custom limits (configure

threshold boundaries).

• Choose if and how Fabric Watch alerts you to errant values (configure alarms).

• Choose if and how frequently Fabric Watch identifies unacceptable values (configure threshold

traits).

• Configure email notifications of Fabric Watch events.

For detailed instructions on using the Web Tools Fabric Watch module, see the Web Tools

Administrator’s Guide.
