Port Statistics Thresholds Configuration File
The /etc/sysconfig/iba/iba_mon.conf configuration file defines port statistics
thresholds for use by
iba_report, fabric_analysis, all_analysis and
iba_mon
.
This file lists a threshold for each port statistic. If the threshold for a given statistic
is not defined or is set to 0, the given statistic will not be checked.
An example of a sample file is provided, and matches the internal defaults of the
FastFabric tools. For a given release consult
/etc/sysconfig/iba/iba_mon.conf-sample for a sample file with the defaults
of the given release
# This file controls the iba_mon Port Counter monitoring Thresholds.

# Error Counters are specified in absolute number of errors over Interval.
# All Data Movement thresholds are specified in terms of average data/second
# over the monitoring interval.
#
# Setting a threshold to 0 disables monitoring of the given counter
#
# Output is generated when a threshold is exceeded.
#
# Counters for which a non-zero threshold is specified will be cleared by
# iba_mon and may impact any remote Performance Managers which are monitoring
