Step 2
On the Admin tab, expand All > Faults, Events, and Audit Log.
Step 3
Click Settings.
Step 4
In the Work pane, complete the following fields in the Fault Collection Policy area:
DescriptionName
Flapping occurs when a fault is raised and cleared several times in rapid
succession. To prevent this, the system does not allow a fault to change
its state until this amount of time has elapsed since the last state change.
If the condition reoccurs during the flapping interval, the fault returns
to the active state. If the condition does not reoccur during the flapping
interval, the fault is cleared. What happens at that point depends on the
setting in the Clear Action field.
Enter an integer between 5 and 3,600. The default is 10.
Flapping Interval field
The action the system takes when a fault is cleared. This can be one of
the following:
• Retain—Cisco UCS Manager GUI displays the Length of time
to retain cleared faults section.
• Delete—The system immediately deletes all fault messages as
soon as they are marked as cleared.
Clear Action field
Length of Time to Retain Cleared Faults Section
If the Clear Action field is set to Retain, this is the length of time the
system retains a fault once it is marked as cleared. This can be one of
the following:
• Forever—The system leaves all cleared fault messages on the
fabric interconnect regardless of how long they have been in the
system.
• other—Cisco UCS Manager GUI displays the dd:hh:mm:ss field.
Retention Interval field
The number of days, hours, minutes, and seconds that should pass before
the system deletes a cleared fault message.
dd:hh:mm:ss field
