Fabric Resiliency Best Practices

In this IBM® Redpaper™ publication we discuss best practices for deploying and utilizing advanced Brocade Fabric OS (FOS) features to identify, monitor, and protect Fibre Channel (FC) SANs from problematic device and media behavior.
Note that this paper covers Brocade Fabric OS command options up to and including version 6.4.2b. If you are using a code level higher than this, the guidance and strategy provided by the paper is still applicable. However, you might find additional options available that allow even greater granularity in establishing specific alerting features.
