Monitoring flows
Flow Vision enables you to monitor flows defined on devices through the Management application
or CLI. Summary data for flows includes all measures supported by the Flow Vision features as well
as MAPS violations on monitored flows. You can display summary data for multiple flows, set the
time durations, hide and display SCSI and frame-related measures, launch performance graphs for
flow data, and view flow data for any discovered fabric.
To view the summary data for a flow, complete the following steps.
1. Select Monitor > Fabric Vision > Flow > Monitor or click the Flow Vision icon on the toolbar.
The Flow Vision dialog box displays pre-populated with a list of all defined flows (active and
inactive) in the Flow Definitions table, as shown is
Figure 787 .
