Watch provides customizable monitoring thresholds. You can configure Fabric Watch to provide notification before problems arise, such as reporting when network traffic through a port is approaching the bandwidth limit. This information enables you to perform preemptive network maintenance such as - HP StorageWorks 4400 | Brocade Fabric Watch Administrator's Guide v6.3.0 (53-100 - Page 26
and performance without installing new software or system administration tools. For a growing number of organizations, SAN fabrics are a mission-critical part of their system architecture.

monitor the switch health on eight logical switches. You can configure thresholds and alarms for ports that belong to a particular logical switch. Each logical switch has its own Fabric Watch configuration and triggers alarms based on its local configuration. Fabric Watch supports port movement from - HP StorageWorks 4400 | Brocade Fabric Watch Administrator's Guide v6.3.0 (53-100 - Page 30
and monitor the switches within the fabric. Port Fencing is a Fabric Watch enhancement that takes the Port class, E_Port class, and F/FL_Port class ports offline if the user-defined thresholds are exceeded. NOTE Port Fencing is not enabled by default. You must manually enable Port Fencing. Refer to - HP StorageWorks 4400 | Brocade Fabric Watch Administrator's Guide v6.3.0 (53-100 - Page 31
Watch default settings A default Fabric Watch configuration is available for the purpose of saving setup time. As you become more familiar with Advanced Fabric Watch features, you can tailor them to suit the fabric environment. The custom settings available in Fabric Watch provide an advanced user - HP StorageWorks 4400 | Brocade Fabric Watch Administrator's Guide v6.3.0 (53-100 - Page 32
, you should configure Fabric Watch to monitor the classes in the following order: • Step 1. Monitor Fabric class areas • Domain ID changes • Fabric logins • Fabric reconfiguration • Loss of E_Port • Segmentation changes • SFP state changes • Zoning changes • Step 2: Monitor Port class areas - HP StorageWorks 4400 | Brocade Fabric Watch Administrator's Guide v6.3.0 (53-100 - Page 33
levels of alerts for E_ports and F/FL_Ports and configure the ports individually. Always set up thresholds one fabric at a time and test the configuration before you apply the threshold configuration to more switches or fabrics. NOTE You cannot configure different thresholds for server and storage - HP StorageWorks 4400 | Brocade Fabric Watch Administrator's Guide v6.3.0 (53-100 - Page 34
which are described in detail in "Fabric Watch event notifications" on page 3. We recommend using either SNMP trap alerting to your system management console or event log entry in conjunction with Syslog forwarding configured on your switches. RAPI traps and lock port logs are rarely used and it is - HP StorageWorks 4400 | Brocade Fabric Watch Administrator's Guide v6.3.0 (53-100 - Page 35
using the E_Port class. Ports connected to another switch can trigger events based on either of these configurations. Ports that are not connected to another switch are not affected by the additional monitoring configured into the E_Port class.

. Performance Monitoring is not supported on VE_Ports, EX_Ports, and VEX _Ports. Port Enables you to set additional thresholds specific to different types of ports. The Port class is made up of the following classes: • E_Port class-Represents ports connected to another switch.

Fabric reconfiguration occurs when: • Two fabrics with the same domain ID are connected - HP StorageWorks 4400 | Brocade Fabric Watch Administrator's Guide v6.3.0 (53-100 - Page 38
ports are not monitored. Zone changes Tracks the number of zone changes. Because zoning is a security provision, frequent zone changes might indicate a security breach or weakness. Zone change messages occur whenever there is a change in zone configurations.

Fabric Watch defines an element as any fabric or switch component that the software monitors. Within each area, the number of elements is equivalent to the number of components being monitored. For instance, on a 64-port switch, each area of the Port Fabric Watch Administrator's Guide 53-1001342-01 - HP StorageWorks 4400 | Brocade Fabric Watch Administrator's Guide v6.3.0 (53-100 - Page 43
Time bases 21 •Threshold event settings 23 Threshold values Threshold values are of the following types: • High and low thresholds • Buffer values High and low thresholds High and low threshold values are the values at which potential problems might occur. For example, in configuring a temperature - HP StorageWorks 4400 | Brocade Fabric Watch Administrator's Guide v6.3.0 (53-100 - Page 44

Time bases 4 Time bases Time bases are time periods within Fabric Watch. This configurable field affects the comparison of sensor-based data with user-defined threshold values. Time base set to none If you set a time base to none, Fabric Watch compares a data value against a threshold boundary - HP StorageWorks 4400 | Brocade Fabric Watch Administrator's Guide v6.3.0 (53-100 - Page 46
data obtained by Fabric Watch (the type of data is irrelevant to the example). A high threshold of 2 is specified to trigger an event. A time base of minute remains equal to the high threshold of 2. In this case, Fabric Watch does not trigger an event even though the absolute value of the counter - HP StorageWorks 4400 | Brocade Fabric Watch Administrator's Guide v6.3.0 (53-100 - Page 47

change" monitoring. When Fabric Watch detects a change in the counter value between two sample periods (defined by the time base), it triggers an event when a change in value is expected to be rare. Monitoring a fabric element that is subject to frequent change generates so many events that it - HP StorageWorks 4400 | Brocade Fabric Watch Administrator's Guide v6.3.0 (53-100 - Page 49
Fabric Watch event triggers are usually set to notify the user of a warning or failure condition, but there is an exception.
