Fabric Watch legacy policies
You cannot return Fabric Watch once you activate MAPS (or migrate to MAPS).
When you migrate from Fabric Watch to MAPS, three policies are automatically created:
• fw_custom_policy
Contains all of the monitoring rules based on the custom thresholds configured in Fabric
Watch, even if the rules have the same parameters as the default rules.
• fw_default_policy
Contains all of the monitoring rules based on the default thresholds configured in Fabric
Watch.
• fw_active_policy
Contains all of the monitoring rules based on the active thresholds in Fabric Watch at the time
of the migration.
The following factors also apply to Fabric Watch conversions:
• Converted active Fabric Watch policies reference either custom or default fabric watch rules.
• Converted custom Fabric Watch policies reference either custom or default fabric watch rules.
• Fabric Watch rule conversions use the following rule name formats:
- “_LBC” suffixes are changed to “AL” (indicating that it uses an “Above Low” threshold)
- Converted Fabric Watch rule names will have the threshold number as the suffix. This is
the same pattern as MAPS rules use. For example: defALL_10GLWL_SFPSFP_TEMP_AH
will be changed to defALL_10GLWL_SFPSFP_TEMP_90.
- Converted rules are prefixed with fw_def_xxx or fw_cust_xxx.
These policies are treated as user-defined policies. You can modify them by adding and deleting
rules, and you can delete the policy.
MAPS rules
A rule associates a condition with actions that need to be triggered when the specified condition is
evaluated to be true.
Each rule specifies the following items:
• A group of objects to be evaluated.
Refer to “MAPS groups” on page 1819 for additional information.
• The measure to be monitored.
Refer to “MAPS monitoring categories” on page 1794 for additional information.
