Brocade Communications Systems StoreFabric SN6500B Documentation Update page 37

The fwShow command was deprecated in Fabric OS v6.4.0 along with fwConfigure. Typically, when
Brocade announces deprecation of a command for a given Fabric OS release, the commands are still
functional and only an announcement is made in the preface. The man pages are kept intact until the
commands are removed in the following release.
For the fwShow command, the man page was accidentally removed from the printed manual. It is
reprinted below.
fwShow
Displays the class thresholds monitored by Fabric Watch.
Synopsis fwshow [--port --persistence] | [--disable --port]
Description Use this command to display the thresholds monitored by Fabric Watch. This command also

For a description of the class thresholds supported in Fabric OS and the restrictions that apply to

for fwConfigure or consult the Fabric Watch Administrator's Guide.
