Performance Manager Collections 

</h1>
<a name="wp1348330"> </a><p class="pBody">
If you are managing your switches with the Performance Manager, you must set up an initial set of flows 
and collections on the switch. You can use Cisco DCNM Web Client to add and remove performance 
collections. The switch has to be licensed and in the Managed Continuously state before a collection for 
the switch can be created. 

</p>
<a name="wp1348470"> </a><p class="pBody">
To add a collection follow these steps: 

</p>
<div class="pSmartList1"><ol type="1" class="pSmartList1">
<a name="wp1348513"> </a><li class="pSmartList1">From the menu bar, click <span style="font-weight: bold">Admin&gt;Collections</span>. 
</li>
<a name="wp1355038"> </a><li class="pSmartList1">Under Generate a threshold event when traffic exceeds % of capacity, use the checkbox to specify the 
<span style="font-weight: bold">Critical at </span>and <span style="font-weight: bold">Warning at </span>values. User can also use the <span style="font-weight: bold">For ISL/Trunk Only</span> checkbox to limit the 
threshold events generated to ISL and Trunk events only and then click <span style="font-weight: bold">Apply</span>.
</li>
<a name="wp1355039"> </a><li class="pSmartList1">In the Licensed Fabrics panel, use the checkboxes to select the Fabric, ISLs/NPV Links, Hosts, Storage, 
FC Flows and FC Ethernet to enable performance collection for these data types. 
</li>
<a name="wp1348477"> </a><li class="pSmartList1">In the Licensed LAN Switches panel, use the checkboxes to enable performance data collection for 
<span style="font-weight: bold">Trunks</span>, <span style="font-weight: bold">Access</span> and <span style="font-weight: bold">Errors &amp; Discards</span>.
</li>
<a name="wp1354722"> </a><li class="pSmartList1">Use the checkboxes to select the type(s) of LAN switches for which you want to collect performance 
data. 
</li>
<a name="wp1348480"> </a><li class="pSmartList1">Click <span style="font-weight: bold">Apply</span> to save the configuration. 
</li>
<a name="wp1349481"> </a><li class="pSmartList1">In the confirmation dialog box, click <span style="font-weight: bold">Yes</span> to restart the performance collector.
</li>
