This four-portlet interactive dashboard initially presents a list of host-to-storage paths in the upper left portlet. The other three portlets remain blank until a host is selected. Each time you select a host, the upper right portlet displays a topology map of the host-to-storage configuration.
Topology Features
This topology represents the connections from a particular host to arrays providing storage to the host.
