Fibre Channel Arbitrated Loop Hub Monitor
131
• Repeat Frequency: 1 day (1440 minutes)
• Severity Action: Notify for all levels
The hub monitor also uses the following settings to configure the SNMP environment used by the hub. Note
that two of these settings (HUB_COUNT and HUB_X_IP_ADDRESS) are required to indicate to the monitor what
hubs should monitored. Changes that involve adding or deleting hubs to the configuration file while the
monitor is running will be invoked at the next polling interval, or following the selection of the (E)nable
Monitoring option from the Hardware Monitoring Request Manager (monconfig).
