Types of Fabric Watch reports

SWITCH HEALTH REPORT
The switch health report lists
• Current health of each port, based on the currently configured policy settings.
• High-level state of the switch as well as power supplies, fans, and temperatures.
• All ports that are in an abnormal state and indicates the current health state of each port.
The switch health report is available even without Fabric Watch, but for licensed Fabric Watch
users, the marginal and faulty ports are included in the report. The following is an example of a
switch health report.
NOTE
Switch health report details do not display the health status of GbE ports. Fabric Watch only
monitors and reports the status for physical and virtual FC ports.
Type the switchStatusShow command to generate a switch health report.

SWITCH STATUS POLICY REPORT
The switch status policy report lets you see the current policy parameters. Run the
switchStatusPolicyShow command to generate a switch status policy report.
The following example of the switchStatusPolicyShow command output is for modular switches
such as the Brocade 24000. For modular switches, the switch status policy report also contains
information on the WWN, Blade, and CP.
For non-modular switches such as the Brocade 3250, 3850, 3900, 4100, and 5000, the WWN,
Blade, and CP information is not displayed.
Type the switchStatusPolicyShow command to generate a switch status policy report.
