Special Procedures
Fibre Channel Arbitrated Loop Hub Monitor
•Repeat Frequency: 1 day (1440 minutes)
•Severity Action: Notify for all levels
The hub monitor also uses the following settings to configure the SNMP environment used by the hub. Note that two of these settings (HUB_COUNT and HUB_X_IP_ADDRESS) are required to indicate to the monitor what hubs should monitored. Changes that involve adding or deleting hubs to the configuration file while the monitor is running will be invoked at the next polling interval, or following the selection of the (E)nable Monitoring option from the Hardware Monitoring Request Manager (monconfig).
