Fabric OS Commands perfSetPortEEMask Set overall mask for end-to-end (EE) monitors. Synopsis: V3.1.x perfSetPortEEMask portnumber, "TxSIDMsk","TxDIDMsk", "RxSIDMsk","RxDIDMsk" Synopsis: V4.1.x perfSetPortEEMask [slotnumber/]portnumber, "TxSIDMsk", "TxDIDMsk","RxSIDMsk","RxDIDMsk" Availability Admin Release V3.1.x and V4.1.x Description Use this command to set the mask for the EE monitors of a port. This command enables a user to selectively choose the kind of Fibre Channel frames in which the number of words are to be counted. EE monitors are defined by the perfAddEEMonitor command using SID and DID pairs. This command can be used to match the entire SID or DID to trigger the monitor to count Fibre Channel words. It can also be used to match one or two of the three fields (Domain ID, Area ID and AL_PA ID) in SID and DID pair to trigger the monitor. The EE mask is used to set up a flag on each field to control whether the field is used to trigger the monitor. When a flag bit is set (ff), the corresponding field will be used to qualify the triggering of the monitor. If a flag is reset (00), then that field is ignored and its value will not be used to qualify monitor-triggering. There is only one EE mask per port. The mask is applied to all eight EE monitors available on a port. The default EE mask value upon power-on is all eight EE monitors set. When you reset mask, the counters are also reset to 0. 510 Fabric OS Version 3.1.x/4.1.x Reference Guide
