There are a number of things you can do to monitor your 3PAR array:

For your Brocade swtich, which I assume is a fibrechannel switch to go with your flash array, all the plugins that I could find seem to only handle basic hardware status like power supplies and temperature:

However, if you can enable SSH to your switch, you can put something together to do whatever kind of commands you need (e.g., diagstatus, hashow, switchshow, etc...).

Does that help?
