HA-Fabric Manager User Guide

If you use a private LAN IP address, i.e. 10.x.x.x, this causes this LAN to be
designated as the private LAN. You must also have the public LAN
connection active when the HAFM server is booting up, or else the HAFM
application will interpret this as a single LAN connection configuration, and
the 10.x.x.x LAN will be designated as the LAN for remote client sessions.

You can configure a specified Ethernet interface on the HAFM server to be
the public LAN (to listen for remote client connections). To configure this
feature, you must manually edit a file on the HAFM server to explicitly
specify which IP address HAFM should use as the public LAN.

Perform the following to configure an Ethernet interface:

— Open the

config.properties

file in directory

C:\Program

Files\HAFM\

, and add the following line:

ServerRmiIpAddress=x.x.x.x

where

x.x.x.x

is the IP address assigned to one of the Ethernet LAN

adapters which is to be used as the public LAN. This entry is case
sensitive and must be made exactly as shown. Once this line has been
added, the HAFM server must be rebooted.

Note:

This does not impact the Fibre Channel operations of any edge switch or

director. Only monitoring switch operations, logging events, and implementing

configuration changes are interrupted.

If the public LAN IP address of the HAFM server is ever changed, this file must
be edited again to reflect the new IP address.

Remote workstations are not supported on the secondary adapter, and must
always connect to the public adapter as shown in

Figure 2

.

For details on configuring remote workstations, see “

Configuring Remote

Workstations

” on page 251.
