Overview of Metrics in Foglight for Storage Management

Metrics and data are saved in the Foglight for Storage Management database as properties of topology objects. Topology objects correspond to the types of storage devices and components being monitored in your storage environment.

Summary of SAN Topology Objects

If you want to create new rules or custom dashboards, or if you want to browse the data directly instead of through the Storage & SAN dashboards, you need to know the names of devices, components, and metrics as they are stored in the Foglight for Storage Management Database Repository.

The following tables list the top-level storage devices and all child components, and identifies their topology object names. These lists are not comprehensive, rather they reflect the objects that you may need to reference if you are creating new rules or custom dashboards. For other objects, see the Data dashboard. For help navigating to the Data dashboard, see Locating SAN Topology Objects in Foglight for Storage Management.
