5 In the Level area, select the appropriate level. The default level is
Interface Test. To enable data path monitoring tickets, set the level to
Device Datapath Test.
The following table describes the functionality for each data path
monitoring level.
Functionality Description
Performs tests to verify that Fibre Channel controllers on I/O blades are responsive
to commands.
Performs tests at the Interface Test level, and also performs a device inquiry on each
target device.
6 In the Enter new Interval text box, type the amount of time that
should elapse between automatic monitoring checks. The interval can
range from 1 to 2,880 minutes (48 hours). The default interval is 60
minutes.
Note
7 To save your configuration and return to the Datapath Conditioning
dialog box, click OK.
The data path from I/O blade to the drive must
experience problems for two period intervals
before a problem is detected and a ticket is
generated.
• The datapath conditioning time interval you
configure in the LMC, which is from an I/O
blade to drive, is not the same as the data path
check that occurs between the I/O blade and a
host. The latter time interval is configured by
means of HRS and it is hard coded. The default
time interval for Windows is five minutes. You
must disconnect the drive for at least five
minutes to know you have triggered the ticket.
