6 Q. What is Brocade Fabric Vision technology? A. Brocade Fabric Vision technology is an advanced hardware and software solution that combines capabilities from the Brocade Fibre Channel ASIC, Brocade FOS, and Brocade Network Advisor to help administrators address problems before they impact operations, accelerate new application deployments, and dramatically reduce operational costs. Fabric Vision technology provides unprecedented visibility and insight across the storage network through innovative diagnostic, monitoring, and management technology. Q. What features and capabilities does Brocade Fabric Vision technology offer? A. Brocade Fabric Vision technology, an extension of Brocade Gen 5 and Gen 6 Fibre Channel solutions, offers technology innovation that is unmatched in the industry. Fabric Vision technology includes: IO Insight: Proactively and non-intrusively monitors storage device IO performance and behavior through integrated network sensors at the storage tier, providing deep insight into problems and ensuring service levels. (Available only on the Brocade G620 Switch and Brocade X6 Directors.) VM Insight: Seamlessly monitors VM performance throughout a storage fabric with standards-based, end-to-end VM tagging. Administrators can quickly determine the source of VM/application performance anomalies, as well as provision and fine-tune the infrastructure based on VM/application requirements to meet service-level objectives. Monitoring and Alerting Policy Suite (MAPS): Leverages prebuilt, rule-/policy-based templates within MAPS to simplify fabricwide threshold configuration, monitoring, and alerting. Administrators can configure the entire fabric (or multiple fabrics) at one time using common rules and policies, or customize policies for specific ports or switch elements. With Flow Vision and VM Insight, administrators set thresholds for VM flow metrics in MAPS policies in order to be notified of VM performance degradation. Fabric Performance Impact (FPI) Monitoring: Leverages predefined MAPS policies to automatically detect and alert administrators to different latency severity levels, and to identify slow drain devices that could impact network performance. This feature identifies various latency severity levels, pinpointing exactly which devices are causing or are impacted by a bottlenecked port, and quarantines slow drain devices automatically to prevent buffer credit starvation. Dashboard: Provides integrated dashboards that display an overall SAN health view, along with details on out-of-range conditions, to help administrators easily identify trends and quickly pinpoint issues occurring on a switch or in a fabric. Configuration and Operational Monitoring Policy Automation Services Suite (COMPASS): Simplifies deployment, safeguards consistency, and increases operational efficiencies of larger environments with automated switch and fabric configuration services. Administrators can configure a template or adopt an existing configuration as a template and seamlessly deploy the configuration across the fabric. In addition, they can ensure that settings do not drift over time with COMPASS configuration and policy violation monitoring within Brocade Network Advisor dashboards. Brocade ClearLink Diagnostics: Ensures optical and signal integrity for Fibre Channel optics and cables, simplifying deployment and support of high-performance fabrics. ClearLink Diagnostic Port (D_Port) is an advanced capability of Brocade Fibre Channel platforms. Flow Vision: Enables administrators to identify, monitor, and analyze specific application and data flows in order to simplify troubleshooting, maximize performance, avoid congestion, and optimize resources. Flow Monitor: Provides comprehensive visibility into flows within the fabric, including the ability to automatically learn flows and non-disruptively monitor flow performance. Administrators can monitor all flows from a specific host to multiple targets/luns, from multiple hosts to a specific target/lun, or across a specific ISL. Additionally, they can perform LUN-level monitoring of specific frame types to identify resource contention or congestion that is impacting application performance. With the IO Insight capability on the Brocade G620 Switch and Brocade X6 Directors, administrators can monitor first IO response time, IO completion time, the number of pending IOs, and IOPS metrics for a specific host and target, or a specific host, target, and LUN. With VM Insight on Brocade G610 and G620 Switches and Brocade X6 Directors, administrators can monitor network throughput and IO statistics for each VM. 6 2351a5e196
