Follow the instructions displayed.

ii. Type:

Follow the instructions displayed.

Note –

If patches have been installed on top of the

SUNWsmgr

package, you must

reinstall those patches.

What do I do if the Fabric Icon is not present in the Fabric Window?

The Fabric Icon is not present when the GUI is installed for the first time. Verify
that the

default.fab

file is not empty and that the user is assigned to a non-

empty Fabric file in the Admin window.

Each managed Fabric has a name and an Ethernet connection to a Switch chassis
through which the Fabric is managed: the Fabric Management Switch. SANsurfer
chooses one Ethernet connection at a time to use. The Fabric window is the first
window displayed after entering the application.

The application loads the

default.fab

file (or the file assigned to a user;

see”User Administration Window” on page 2-72 for assigning alternate files),
which contains an entry for the managed Fabric if the Fabric was saved in a
previous session. If this is the first time the application is being accessed, there is
no defined Fabric. The

default.fab

file does not contain a Fabric unless a

Fabric has been defined and saved to the

default.fab

file by a user.

Use the Network Configuration Window to assign the IP Address to this Switch
chassis. The Fabric window can also be used to record Port, Switch chassis, and
Fabric statistics through the use of the

type

and

mode

fields.

Note –

Only one Fabric can be displayed on the Fabric table. To create a new Fabric,

an existing Fabric must be deleted in the Fabric window. You can save the Fabric you
want to delete in a new

.fab

file through the File pull down menu.

Refer to Section 2-11, “Fabric Window.”

What do I do if the SANsurfer is unable to recognize the switch through which its
Ethernet is connected to another sub-network?

Make sure the Gateway and Mask fields in the Network Configuration Window
are set correctly.
