Monitoring and Alerting Policy Suite widgets
NOTE
MAPS is only supported on a licensed version of the Management application with SAN
management.
NOTE
MAPS is only supported on FC and DCB devices running Fabric OS 7.2.0 or later with the Fabric
Vision license.
The Monitoring and Alerting Policy Suite (MAPS) is an optional storage area network (SAN) health
monitor that allows you to enable each switch to constantly monitor its SAN fabric for potential
faults and automatically alerts you to problems long before they become costly failures.
The MAPS widgets display the number of MAPS threshold violations for all network objects (such as
ports, trunks, switches, and circuits) for all MAPS-capable devices. In addition, the MAPS widgets
include the Fabric Watch threshold violations for devices running Fabric OS 6.4.0 or later with the
Fabric Watch license or FC and DCB devices running Fabric OS 7.2.0 or later with the Fabric Vision
license but not migrated to MAPS.
The MAPS widgets display on the main Dashboard tab. The Management application provides the
following preconfigured MAPS widgets:
• Out of Range Violations widget — Table view of all out of range threshold violations reported in
your SAN.
• Port Health Violations widget — Table view of out of range port health violations.
