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 alert you to problems long before they become costly failures.
The widget displays the number of MAPS threshold violations for all network objects (such as ports,
trunks, switches, and circuits) for all MAPS-capable devices.
The widget also includes the Fabric Watch threshold violations for devices running Fabric OS 6.4.0
or later with the Fabric Watch license or FC 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 by
your SAN devices .
• Port Health Violations widget — Table view of out of range port health violations.
