Using Fabric Watch Email Alert Troubleshooting 1. Enter the hostname command (SAN Switch 2/32) or ippaddrset command (Core Switch 2/64; set for both CP0 and CP1) to set the hostname and verify that you have set it correctly. Do not configure the hostname to be identical to the switchname. 2. Add the switch hostname and IPaddress to Yellow Pages (YP) table/ DNS (Domain Name Server). 3.

When a counter crosses the boundary, that occurrence registers an event. Counters may oscillate around the upper or lower boundary of a range threshold and, as a result, cause numerous events in a short period of time.
