HP 316095-B21 - StorageWorks Edge Switch 2/24 Release Note page 7

Zoning functionality improved
Various functionality has been added to the zoning feature, including:
New zoning importing features require special procedures. Refer to the online
help or user guide for instructions.
Preferred Path support
This feature is a new feature available through the Element Managers. You can
define a Preferred Path by selecting the preferred interswitch link (ISL) to use
between an ingress switch port and a remote switch. This feature provides
management control over routes taken across the fabric to better accommodate
network traffic engineering.
Performance Monitor
Use the Performance Monitor feature to measure and graphically display
performance statistics, historic metrics, and future trends of every switch port on
your SAN. Identify over-utilized and under-utilized ports, as well as trends and
problem areas so they can be addressed quickly.
Note:
Event Management module
Use the Event Management feature to define and monitor specific conditions or
events and then trigger actions, such as report generation or pager alerts, when
conditions occur. This feature enables you to automate routine tasks to reduce the
amount of hands-on SAN management necessary.
