Monitoring switches and fabrics through chassis

Detect and investigate switch and fabric issues that might affect the availability and performance of your storage. View and analyze performance metrics, such as response times, I/O rates, and data rates. You can also monitor the configuration, status, and health of your switches and fabrics.

Knowing where problems are occurring in your environment is critical to helping you solve problems with your storage. By monitoring switches and fabrics along with your storage devices, pinpointing those problems can be done more quickly. To see how it's done, check out this video.

Attention: You must add a chassis to IBM Storage Insights to collect metadata about its associated switches and fabrics. When you add a chassis, all its associated switches and fabrics are identified automatically. A single chassis can have multiple switches that belong to one or more fabrics.
