The following might be reset when a user changes any of the values set for the intermittent error or the path status: the number of errors that have already been counted during error monitoring, the amount of time that has passed since error monitoring has started, and the information about whether an intermittent error has occurred. Table 1 lists whether the above items are reset.
If you want to check whether intermittent error monitoring is being used for a path, check the IEP item displayed when the dlnkmgr command's view -path operation is executed with the -iem parameter specified. If 0 or greater is displayed in the Intermittent Error Path item, then intermittent error monitoring is being performed.

When you turn the intermittent error monitoring function off, information about paths not subject to automatic failback will be reset. If you do not want to reset the information about paths not subject to automatic failback when you turn the intermittent error monitoring function off, change the target paths to Offline(C).
