Abstract
Manageability tools are provided for allowing an administrator to have better control over switches in a lossless network of switches. These tools provide the ability to detect slow drain and congestion bottlenecks, detect stuck virtual channels and loss of credits, configure hold times on edge switches to be different from hold times on core switches, and mitigate severe latency bottlenecks.
