Customizing the layout of devices on the topology
You can customize the layout of devices by group type or for the entire Connectivity Map.
Customizing the layout makes it easier to view the SAN and manage its devices. Group types
include Fabric, Host, Storage, and Switch groups.
The Map Display Layout list varies depending on what you
selected (group type or Connectivity Map).
1. Right-click a group or the Connectivity Map and select Map Display, then select one of the
following options:
• Default for Group_Type. Displays the devices in the default format. Group types include
Fabric, Host, Storage, and Switch groups.
• Free Form. Displays the devices in the default format for Switch Groups and Router
Groups.
When the Free Form map display layout is selected, the Show Ports menu command is
unavailable.
• Fabric. Displays the devices in the default format.
• Custom Grid. Enables you to drag and drop product or group icons into a variable grid to
reorganize the topology. The grid prevents icons from obscuring other icons. If enabled on
a group, devices can only be moved within the group. If enabled on a fabric, groups can
only be moved within the fabric. In other words, a device cannot be moved outside of its
group.
• Square. Displays the device icons in a square configuration.
