In Cisco DCNM Release 5.1(3u), the Cisco DCNM server supports Windows 2008 and the Cisco DCNM client support Windows 7.

You can download the DCNM from the Software Download. Device Manager is bundled in DCNM.

For DCNM-SAN installation please see here:

Hello Chetan,

Per the Fabric Manager release notes, it appears that official support for Windows 7 is not there yet.

However, you can install Device Manager on Windows 7 Enterprise edition (use at your own risk as it would be unsupported) easily by pointing your browser to the MDS switch's mgmt0 IP address (assuming you have IP connectivity from the browser to the MDS).  You will be presented with an option to download Device Mgr. from the switch itself.

Regards,
