switchStatusPolicySet

switchStatusPolicySet
Sets the policy parameters that determine overall switch status.
Synopsis switchstatuspolicyset
Description Use this command to set policy parameters for calculating the overall status of the switch
enclosure. The policy parameter values determine how many failed or faulty units of each
contributor are allowed before triggering a status change in the switch from HEALTHY to MARGINAL
or DOWN. The status of the switch can be found by issuing the switchStatusShow command. The
existence of policies such as Fans, PowerSupplies, WWN, CP, and Blade might differ from platform
to platform.
The command displays the current parameters in a three-column table format similar to what is
shown
TABLE 26
Contributor
PowerSupplies
Temperatures
Fans
WWN
CP
Blade
Flash
MarginalPorts
FaultyPorts
MissingSFPs
Any single contributor can force the overall status of the switch to MARGINAL or DOWN. For
example, assuming that the switch contributor values are set to the default values, if there is one
faulty port in a switch, then this contributor would set the overall switch status to MARGINAL. If two
ports were faulty, then this contributor would set the overall switch status to DOWN.
Note The execution of this command is subject to Virtual Fabric or Admin Domain restrictions that may
be in place. Refer to chapter 1, "Using Fabric OS commands" and Appendix A, "Command
Availability" for details.
