Centralized Management Services
The Cisco FMS Package centralized management services include the following features:
●
Management server: A server can be set up to continuously run Cisco Fabric Manager services. Up to 10
Cisco Fabric Manager Servers can be federated together. Up to 16 remote Cisco Fabric Manager user
interface clients can access this management server concurrently.
●
Web-based operation view: Historical performance statistics, SAN inventory, and fabric event information
needed for day-to-day operations are accessible remotely through a web browser interface.
●
Multiple-fabrics management: Multiple Fibre Channel fabrics can be monitored by each management
server in the federation, facilitating rapid access to configuration parameters and topology maps for multiple
fabrics.
●
Continuous health monitoring: Cisco switch device health is monitored continuously by Cisco FMS using
Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) traps and polling, instead of only while the application user
interface is open.
●
Common discovery: With Cisco FMS, Fibre Channel host bus adapter (HBA), storage device, and Fibre
Channel switch discovery occurs as a background process in a centralized location for fast, efficient
initialization of the Cisco Fabric Manager client-user interface.
●
Roaming user profiles: User preference settings and topology-map layout changes are applied whenever
the Cisco Fabric Manager client is opened, maintaining a consistent interface regardless of which computer is
used for management.
●
Cisco FMS proxy services: The Cisco FMS proxy services help isolate a private IP network used for Cisco
MDS 9000 Family management from the LAN or WAN used for remote connectivity. These services enhance
resiliency by transporting management traffic between the Cisco Fabric Manager client and server over
TCP/IP.
Advanced Application Integration
The Cisco FMS Package offers the following advanced application-integration features:
●
Cisco Traffic Analyzer in-context application launch with passing of Fibre Channel device-naming information,
providing transparent view to Small Computer System Interface (SCSI) I/O or Fibre Channel frame-level
details
●
Cisco Data Center Network Manager (DCMN; Cisco Nexus 7000 Series Switches management platform) in-
context launch from the Cisco Fabric Manager topology map
●
Cisco UCS Manager in-context launch from the Cisco Fabric Manager topology map
●
Storage Management Initiative–Specification (SMI-S) API and web services API
License Information
The Cisco FMS Package is licensed per switch. Licensing a single switch per Fibre Channel fabric enables only
centralized management services and advanced application integration for the fabric. Historical performance
monitoring features are restricted to licensed switches; every switch in a fabric must be licensed to fully utilize these
features. Licensing policy is enforced by Cisco FMS.
