Clearing EE monitor counters
The following example clears statistics counters for an end-to-end monitor:
switch:admin> perfMonitorClear --class EE 1/2 5
End-to-End monitor number 5 counters are cleared
The following example clears statistics counters for all end-to-end monitors on a specific port:
switch:admin> perfMonitorClear --class EE 1/2
This will clear ALL EE monitors' counters on port 2, continue?
(yes, y, no, n): [no] y
Frame monitoring
Frame monitoring counts the number of times a frame with a particular pattern is transmitted by a
port, and generates alerts when thresholds are crossed. Frame monitoring is achieved by defining
a filter, or frame type, for a particular purpose. The frame type can be a standard type (for example,
an SCSI read command filter that counts the number of SCSI read commands that have been
transmitted by the port) or a user-defined frame type customized for your particular use. For a
complete list of the standard, predefined frame types, refer to the fmMonitor command description
in the Fabric OS Command Reference.
