SAN performance overview
Performance monitoring provides details about the quantity of traffic and errors that a specific port
or device generates on the fabric over a specific time. You can also use performance monitoring to
indicate the devices that create the most traffic and identify the ports that are most congested.
Performance monitoring allows you to monitor your SAN using the following methods (requires a
Licensed version):
•
Display the connections which are using the most bandwidth on the selected device or one of
the F_Ports on the device with a feature called Top Talkers.
•
Gather and display real-time performance data (Switch Ports - FC, Switch Ports - GE, Switch
Ports - 10 GE, ISL Ports, E_Port Trunks, end-to-end Monitors, FCIP Tunnels, device Ports,
managed HBA Ports, and managed CNA Ports).
