Brocade SAN Integration
Collect SAN metrics using Brocade SANnav, SMI-S, and SNMP-SSH.
Notice
Brocade SANnav integration is provided as early access and not supported for production use in IO release 7.0.1.
 |
The Brocade SAN integration is an agentless software solution that utilizes storage and network information from information from SANnav Management Portal (SANnav), Storage Management Initiative Specification (SMI-S), and SNMP MIB (management information base) to gather switch performance and link error statistics in a non-intrusive manner. These switch statistics are correlated with other system-wide metrics, as well as metrics from other integrations. This integration supports Brocade Fibre Channel switches, creating an unbiased view of switch port performance. IO utilizes this data to track switch performance, identify oversubscribed resources, conduct historical trending analysis, and alert administrators of link error problems or performance bottlenecks.
Note
Access Gateway switch ports that are connected to the core switch are missing the WWNs.
