Monitoring” section in the Cisco MDS 9000 Family Troubleshooting Guide.
Name Server
The name server functionality maintains a database containing the attributes for all hosts and storage devices
in each VSAN. Name servers allow a database entry to be modified by a device that originally registered the
information.
The proxy feature is useful when you want to modify (update or delete) the contents of a database entry that
was previously registered by a different device.
This section includes the following topics:
Bulk Notification Sent from the Name Server
In order to improve the performance of the Fibre Channel protocols on the Cisco MDS 9000 switch, the name
server optimizes the remote entry change notifications by sending multiple notifications in one MTS payload.
