Opened: Aug 25, 2016

Severity: 5-Cosmetic

Symptoms

The command 'tmsh show monitor <monitor_type> <monitor_name>' correctly displays the several monitor instances of that monitor type-and-name. However, omitting either '<monitor_type>' or '<monitor_name>' displays no output (not even an error message), which may result in an incorrect conclusion that no monitor instances exist.

Impact

User may incorrectly conclude no monitor instances exist, when in fact the command was insufficiently formed.

Conditions

The user issues the command 'tmsh show monitor <monitor_type> <monitor_name>' but omits one of '<monitor_type>' or '<monitor_name>' (thereby resulting in no monitors displayed when monitor instances exist).

Workaround

User should issue the complete command 'tmsh show monitor <monitor_type> <monitor_name>'.

Fix Information

None
