226 Fabric OS Reference Manual
This command enables you to set a threshold for each contributor, so that a
certain number of failures are allowed before changing the status of the
switch.
If the value of a policy parameter is set to 0, it means that this factor is not
used to determine the status of the switch. If the range of values for a
particular contributor are set to 0 for both MARGINAL and DOWN, that
contributor is not used in the calculation of the overall switch status.
ISLStatus monitors ISLs that are part of a defined switch group. The status
of other ISLs on the same switch but outside of the group definition will not
be considered when calculating switch status. If no switch groups are
defined on this switch, then these ISLStatus settings will have no effect on
switch status.
The sgroup ISLStatus does not affect the status of the switch as quickly as
the other contributors. It may take a few minutes for a switch group ISL
status change to affect the state of the switch.
Note
When PortStatus monitoring is set to values of (0,0), port status
changes are not logged to the event log and console. Similarly, GBIC
removal does not generate a message to the event log and console if
MissingGBICs is set to (0,0). By configuring these options, the user can
more closely monitor for port status and/or removal of GBICs.
