sysmon link-error
sysmon link-error
Configures how sysmon handles link errors. The no version of this command disables system
monitoring on link errors.
Syntax sysmon link-error {threshold events polling-interval | log-backoff value | action {none | syslog}}
no sysmon link-error
Command
Default
By default, the command takes the global values defined for threshold, log back-off, and action.
Parameters threshold Defines the threshold for errors. The threshold is defined as N/W, where N is
the number of events, and W is the number of consecutive polling periods.
When the threshold is reached, actions configured for this event type will take
place. Note that a threshold of 1/W implies that there is no threshold, and
the action will always be triggered.
events Specifies the threshold in terms of the number of events. Valid values are 1
through 10.
polling-interval Specifies the number of polling windows. The device polls the internal
registers at the interval specified by the sysmon timer value. Valid values
1-32. However, the polling window number must be equal or greater than the
number of events.
log-backoff If an error condition persists, it will be continuously logged (internally and/or
externally to syslog as defined by the action). The log back-off count skips
configured number of logs before logging again.
action Specifies the action to take when the error count exceeds the specified
threshold and log back-off values.
none The error is logged in the internal sysmon logs. This is the default value.
syslog The error is logged to syslog.

Modes
Global configuration mode.
Usage
Guidelines
This command is supported only on FCX and ICX devices.
Examples The following example configures system monitoring for fabric adaptor errors:
Brocade(config)# sysmon link-error threshold 3 7
Brocade(config)# sysmon link-error action syslog
Brocade(config)# sysmon link-error log-backoff 15
