Parameter

 

Description

 

 

 

 

E_D_TOV

Error Detect Timeout Value. The

 

 

number of milliseconds a port is to wait

 

 

for errors to clear. The default is 2000.

 

PrincipalPriority

The priority used in the FC-SW-2

 

 

principal switch selection algorithm. 1 is

 

 

high, 255 is low. The default is 254.

 

ConfigDescription

Switch configuration description. The

 

 

configuration description can be up to

 

 

32 characters excluding #, semicolon

 

 

(;), and comma (,). The default is

 

 

SANbox2-8c FC Switch.

 

FC-SW-2 Compliant

Propagates just the active zone set

 

 

throughout the fabric (True, compliant)

 

 

or the entire zoning database (False,

 

 

non-compliant). The default is True.

 

LegacyAddressFormat

Available only when the FC-SW-2

 

 

Compliant parameter is False, this

 

 

parameter enables (True) or disables

 

 

(False) the use of legacy address

 

 

formatting for interoperating with

 

 

non-FC-SW-2 switches. Refer to

 

 

”FC-SW-2 Compliant” on page B-37.

 

 

The default is False.

 

 

 

 

threshold

Initiates a configuration session by which to generate and log alarms for selected events. The system displays each event, its triggers, and sampling window one line at a time and prompts you for a value. For each parameter, enter a new value or press the Enter key to accept the current value shown in brackets. These parameters must be saved in a configuration and activated before they will take effect. Refer to the ”Config Command” on page B-10for information about saving and activating a configuration. Table B-11describes the Set Config Threshold parameters. The switch will down a port if an alarm condition is not cleared within three consecutive sampling windows (by default 30 seconds). Reset the port to bring it back online. An alarm is cleared when the threshold monitoring detects that the error rate has fallen below the falling trigger.
