Brocade SAN Switches

Foglight for Storage Management uses the SMI-S interface to collect from Brocade SAN switches.

Brocade switch information is collected using the following namespaces:

•
Interop Namespace — interop
•
Working Namespace(Brocade) — root/brocade1
•
Working Namespace(McData) — root/mcdata

Foglight for Storage Management executes the following SMI-S commands to obtain switch information on all SAN switches or Switch Management applications:

•
EnumerateInstanceNames
•
EnumerateInstances
•
References
•
Reference Names
•
Associators
•

•
GetClass

Requirements for Brocade SAN Switches

Requirements differ depending on the version of Brocade Fabric OS (FOS) used by your switch.

Brocade Switches on FOS 7.0 or later

For Brocade switches running FOS 7.0 or later, Foglight for Storage Management collects information from the switches using the Brocade Network Advisor (BNA). Foglight for Storage Management works with either the full commercial version of BNA (license required) or the SMI-S only version of BNA (free).

Your environment must meet the following requirements:

•
Brocade Network Advisor is installed, either the full version or the free SMI-S Only mode version.
•
Brocade switches are not configured as Access Gateway switches. Foglight for Storage Management does not collect from switches configured as Access Gateway switches.
•
Foglight for Storage Management requires a user account with read access. An account with write/admin access is required to add the switch to BNA, but is not required for monitoring.

Brocade Switches on earlier versions of FOS

Foglight for Storage Management collects information from Brocade switches on earlier versions of FOS via a Brocade SMI Agent on a management host. The SMI Agent talks to proxy switches, one in each fabric. These proxy switches are identified through the use of a configuration tool provided by the SMI Agent. Foglight for Storage Management does not perform any configuration of the SMI Agent. The account is native to the SMI Agent.

For information on acquiring, installing, and setting up the Brocade SMI Agent, see:
http://www.brocade.com/services-support/drivers-downloads/smi-agent/index.page

Your environment must meet the following requirements:

•
The Brocade SMI server is installed on a server/host other than the server/host running the Foglight for Storage Management Agent Manager.
•
The SMI Agent is enabled (it is not enabled by default).
•
The SMI Agent requires a CIMOM that is SMI-S 1.1 or 1.2 CTP conformant.
•
Brocade switches are not configured as Access Gateway switches. Foglight for Storage Management does not collect from switches configured as Access Gateway switches.
•
Foglight for Storage Management requires a user account with read access. An account with write/admin access is required to add the switch to BNA, but is not required for monitoring.
