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.
