or extremely slow chassis or management network, a larger value can be
used.
FF_CHASSIS_LOGIN_METHOD - how to login to a chassis. Can be SSH or
Telnet.
FF_CHASSIS_ADMIN_PASSWORD - the password for administrator on all
chassis. Used in absence of the -S option.
FF_CURTIME - The time stamp to use on the directory created in
FF_ANALYSIS_DIR. The default is the current date and time.
FF_ESM_CMDS - a set of chassis CLI commands to get the SM configuration.
FF_DIFF_CMD - a Linux command to use to compare baseline to latest
snapshot.
The default set of FF_ESM_CMDS is:
smShowSMParms smShowDefBcGroup
The commands specified in FF_ESM_CMDS must be simple commands with no
arguments. The output of these commands will be textually compared (via diff)
to the baseline. Therefore, commands that include dynamically changing values
(such as port packet counters) should not be included in this list.
The esm_analysis variable performs analysis against one or more chassis in
the fabric. As such it permits a chassis to be specified via the -E, -G,
ESM_CHASSIS, ESM_CHASSIS_FILE or fastfabric.conf. The handling
of these options and settings is comparible to cmdall -C and similar Fast fabric
commands against a chassis. The exception in this case is that the option and
variable names are slightly different to distinguish the fact theat they are
specifying only the chassis that has an embedded SM running).
All files generated by esm_analysis start with esm within the file name.
The esm_analysis variable generates files such as the following within
FF_ANALYSIS_DIR. The actual file names reflect the individual chassis
commands that have been configured via the FF_ESM_CMDS parameter:
Health Check:
latest/esm.smstatus - the output of the smControl status command
for all selected chassis.
Baseline:
baseline/esm.smShowDefBcGroup - the output of the
smShowDefBcGroup command for all selected chassis.
baseline/esm.smShowSMParms - the output of the smShowSMParms
command for all selected chassis.
During a baseline run, the above files are also created in
FF_ANALYSIS_DIR/latest.
