VPlexcli:/> port-monitor start -e [e-mail]
Starting port stat monitor...
### Stopping the monitor
To stop the monitor, run `port-monitor stop`.
### Checking status
To see whether or not the monitor is running, or to see if any unexpected errors were
encountered, run the `port-monitor status` command:
VPlexcli:/> port-monitor status
Status: running with the following parameters:
Emails: None
SMTP: x.x.x.x
Local-only: False
Threshold config: None
### Restarting the monitor
If you wish to restart a stopped monitor with the same parameters as before, run `port-
monitor restart`. If you wish to use different options, use the `start` command documented
above.
## Configuring the driver-specific thresholds
The thresholds may be overridden by placing a JSON file at
/var/log/VPlex/cli/port-stats-monitor/config.json, with each key representing a stat to
monitor and the value representing the threshold at which to notify the user. Example
contents of the config.json:
{
"crc-errors": 40,
"link-failure": 15,
"loss-of-sync": 45,
"loss-of-signal": 45,
"invalid-transmission-word": 40,
"lr-remote": 5
}
