Removing a fabric from active discovery

If you decide you no longer want the Management application to discover and monitor a specific
fabric, you can delete it from active discovery. Deleting a fabric also deletes the fabric data on the
server (both system collected and user-defined data) except for user-assigned names for the device
port, device node, and device enclosure information.

To delete a fabric from active discovery, complete the following steps.

1. Select Discover > Fabrics.

The Discover Fabrics dialog box displays.

2. Select the fabric you want to delete from active discovery in the Discovered Fabrics table.

3. Click Delete.

4. Click OK on the confirmation message.

The deleted fabric displays in the Previously Discovered Addresses table.

5. Click Close on the Discover Fabrics dialog box.
