Displaying Fabric Events
Events are displayed for all switches in the fabric in the Fabric Events window (see Figure 3-8). Fabric
events are not automatically polled. You must click Refresh from the Fabric Events window to poll
fabric events. Switch events are automatically polled every 15 seconds.
Fabric Events can be collected only for switches that have the same security level (http or https) as the
launch switch. For switches with a different level of security from the launch switch, a message displays
at the top of the window indicating how many switches have no events reported from the last polling.
For detailed information on the switch names and reasons for not polling (if available), click Details.
To display fabric events
1. Click a fabric from the Fabric Tree.
2. Click the Fabric Events icon on the Fabric Toolbar.
