One of the best solutions that we have purchased is a Finisar Fiber Channel TAP, Probe, and Analyzer. These pieces of hardware combined with the software sitting behind the Finisar equipment can help to analyze a problem very quickly.

Finisar continues its tradition of providing best-of-breed tools to assist storage equipment designers, testers, and manufacturers develop and debug their products with the introduction of its latest tester, the Xgig® Generator. Part of the Xgig platform of design and test tools, the Generator connects to users' systems and supports arbitrary creation of SAS protocol traffic at 1.5, 3.0, or 6.0 Gb/s, and SATA traffic at 1.5 and 3.0 Gb/s, allowing emulation of either SAS or SATA devices. The tool also includes support for the SAS sub-protocols, Serial SCSI Protocol (SSP), SATA Tunneling Protocol (STP) and SAS Management Protocol (SMP). For maximum usability, Generator's user control is via either a Graphical User Interface (GUI) or an Application Programming Interface (API). With Generator, companies can accelerate bring-up, regression, and manufacturing testing—to name just a few possibilities.
