Identifying and diagnosing loss of signal for a switch port 85
Monitoring Your Datacenter
In the tree, an icon appears next to each folder to which the host belongs. By
looking at the folders in the tree, the administrator sees that the host belongs to
the Sales department and is a part of their Sandbox application (Figure 59), which
is a test environment for a new e-commerce application.
Figure 59 Identifying the groups to which a host belongs
The administrator contacts the application developers working on the Sandbox
application and collaborates with them to identify the problem.
Closing the issue
After verifying that the switch performance has improved and that no other systems
were adversely affected by the fix, the administrator closes the issue using the
department’s new procedures.
To close the issue, the administrator:
1. Reopens the Alerts view by right-clicking the port in the Topology view and selects
Alerts (Figure 60).
