IBM Tivoli Productivity Center and SAN Switches performance

Last month i got oppurtunity to configure IrulBM TPC to get the performance statistics from SAN switches.

Following are the main points which you should keep in your mind , when you try to get performance data from Brocade switches using IBM TPC.

1. First , you should have license of IBM TPC Standard Edition . IBM TPC basic edition does not have capability of gathering performance data.

2. Second , for gathering performance data from Brocade switches , you should configure switches as out of band fabric agents , scan them and then install & configure Brocade SMI-S agent. The SMI-S agent from Brocade , should be installed and configured to get in-depth information from switches/fabrics.
