Synopsis perfaddrwmonitor [slotnumber/]portnumber [alias]
Description Use this command to define filter-based monitors to count the number of SCSI FCP Read and Write
commands in Fibre Channel frames. Only frames transmitted are counted.
After a successful execution of this command, a monitor number is displayed. The monitor number
is provided for manipulation of these filter-based performance monitors. The optional user-defined
alias is also displayed, if one was specified. All valid monitor numbers and user-defined aliases can

The maximum number of filters is eight per port, including user-defined filters, read filters, write
filters, read/write filters, SCSI frame monitor, and IP frame monitor.
