Abstract
Methods and systems for a networked storage environment are provided. One method includes mirroring a plurality of requests from a switch and transmitting the mirrored plurality of requests to a remote acquisition unit; extracting application layer protocol data units from assembled transport layer packets; parsing the application layer protocol data units to obtain file system requests; identifying storage volume identifiers from the parsed file system requests that are associated with a greatest number of operations; identifying network addresses for client systems initiating the greatest number of operations for the storage volumes and network addresses of target storage systems managing the storage volumes; and providing a total number of operations for the plurality of requests in a given time, the identified storage volume identifiers, the network addresses of the client systems and the network addresses of the target storage systems to a management console.
