Enabling RMON Alarms for VSANs

To enable an RMON alarm for one or more VSANs using Device Manager, follow these steps:

  1. Choose Admin > Events > Threshold Manager and click the Services tab.
  2. You see the Threshold Manager dialog box.

  3. Click the Services tab.
  4. Enter one or more VSANs (multiple VSANs separated by commas) to monitor in the VSAN ID(s) field. Use the down arrow to see a list of available VSANs to choose from.
  5. Check the check box in the Select column for each variable to monitor.
  6. Enter the threshold value in the Value column.
  7. Enter the sampling period in seconds.
  8. Choose a severity level to assign to the alarm (Fatal, Critical, Error, Warning, or Information).
  9. Click Create.
  10. Confirm the operation to define an alarm and a log event when the system prompts you to define a severity event.

If you do not confirm the operation, the system only defines a log event.

  1. Click More then click the Alarms tab in the Threshold Manager dialog box to verify the alarm you created. Close both pop-up windows.
