SAN data collection
5
•
TopologyCollector – Collects data about the ISLs in the fabric.
•
TrunkInfoCollector – Collects data about trunks in the fabric.
•
WtJarsCollector – Downloads the jar files needed to launch WebTools from the Management
application.
Switch-level collectors gather individual switch-level information (such as, port details and so on).
The Management application also uses specialty collectors which run only for switches that have a
particular feature. For example the EncryptionBaseCollector only runs for encryption switches. The
Management application uses the following Switch-level collectors:
•
BottleneckConfigCollector – Collects data about bottleneck configuration on the switch.
•
BottleneckStatusCollector – Collects data about the bottleneck status (whether or not a port is
bottlenecked) for each port on the switch.
•
EncryptionBaseCollector – Collects all encryption related data.
•
GroupConfigChangeCollector – Collects encryption data related to HA Cluster, Target
Containers, Crypto Host, and Crypto LUN.
•
GroupConfigCollector – Collects group member and group collection data.
•
FabricCollector – Collects the fabric members (switches) and persists the members in the
application. This is the main collector that organizes fabric discovery.
•
CeeSwitchCalCollector – Collects the association of a device port to a 10 G physical port on the
DCB switch.
•
DCBCollector – Collects data specific to the DCB switch.
•
FportTrunkCollector – Collects data about F-port trunks present on the switch.
•
GigePortCollector – Collects GigE-port data on the switch.
•
LicenseCollector – Collects data about licenses on the switch.
•
LiteSwitchAssetCollector – Collects the FMS mode setting on the switch.
•
SwitchAssetCollector – Collects data about the switch including, inventory details, port level
data, any blades that may be present (on directors), AG-port mapping, and auto trace dump
settings. This is the major collector for switch data.
•
FCIPCollector – Collects FCIP-related data on the older FCIP switches.
•
XFCIPCollector – Collects extended FCIP-related data on the newer FCIP switches.
•
MapsPolicyCollector – Collects data about MAPS policies configured on the switch.
•
MetaSANCollector – Collects data about the IFLs (Inter Fabric Links) on the switch.
•
FlowCollector – Collects data about the flow definitions on the switch. Also collects the
subflows for each flow definition. This collector requires the Fabric Insight license on the
switch.
•
VPWwnInfoCollector – Collects data about the VPWWN (Virtual Port World Wide Name) on the
switch.
The Management application collects performance monitoring data via SNMP. Performance
monitoring data is collected asynchronously and is not affected by the collector scheduling.
Performance data (mostly port statistics) is collected every 5 minutes.
