What is agentPfcAction?

This read-write object sets the drop or no-drop behavior applied within a PFC profile for a given priority, choosing drop(1) or nodrop(2), with drop as the default. Admins configure this per priority to decide which traffic classes get lossless (pause-based) treatment under PFC and which are simply dropped when congested. Setting agentPfcAction to nodrop(2) for the priority carrying storage traffic ensures that class is protected from drops during congestion, at the cost of possible pausing.
