Measures reported by FaSwitchStatusTest
The heart of a SAN are Fibre Channel switches that provide any-to-any connectivity for servers and storage devices. Switch product lines range from entry- to enterprise-level to meet a wide range of changing business requirements. Two or more interconnected switches create a SAN fabric. Fabrics allow you to optimize your SAN for performance, scalability, and availability. Some switches include a high-value fabric operating system that provides intelligence, enabling advanced SAN fabric management, monitoring, and security. This test reports the status of the Fabric switch that is being monitored.
