Deleting a Top Talker monitor on an F_Port

To delete a Top Talker monitor on an F_Port:
1. Connect to the switch and log in as admin.
2. Issue the perfttmon
perfttmon --delete [slotnumber/]port
where:
• slotnumber is the slot number for director-class switches only (4/256 SAN Director and DC Director
• port is the port number
For example, to delete the monitor on port 7:
perfttmon --delete 7
To delete the monitor on slot 2, port 4 on the 4/256 SAN Director or DC Director:
perfttmon --delete 2/4

Displaying the top n bandwidth-using flows on an F_Port

To display the top n bandwidth-using flows on an F_Port:
1. Connect to the switch and log in as admin.
2. Issue the perfttmon
perfttmon --show [slotnumber/]port [n] [wwn | pid]
where:
• slotnumber is the slot number for director-class switches only (4/256 SAN Director and DC Director)
• port is the port number
• n is the number of top talking flows to display (between 1 and 32)
• wwn | pid is the format of the output (the default is wwn)
The output is sorted, based on the data rate of each flow. If you do not specify the number of flows to
display, the command displays the top 8 flows or the total number of flows, whichever is less.
For example, to display the top 5 flows on port 7 in WWN (default) format:
perfttmon --show 7 5
To display the top flows on slot 2, port 4 on the 4/256 SAN Director or DC Director in PID format:
perfttmon --show 2/4 pid
switch:admin> perfttmon --show 2/4 pid
