Refreshing fabric information
When you refresh, the system updates the display of fabric elements only (switches, ports, and
devices). It does not update Admin Domain changes in the Admin Domain window.
This option allows you to refresh the fabric element information displayed at any time.
To refresh the fabric information open the Admin Domain window and click Refresh. The status for
the fabric, including switches, ports, and devices is refreshed.
Refreshing Admin Domain information
Any changes you make in the Admin Domain window are saved to a local buffer. They are not
applied to persistent storage until you invoke one of the transactional operations listed in the
Actions menu.
You can refresh the Admin Domain information at any time to reflect changes that might have been
made by other users or to back out of current, unsaved work and start again.
ATTENTION
When you refresh the buffered information in the Admin Domain window, any Admin Domain
configuration changes you made and not yet saved are erased from the buffer and replaced with the
currently enabled Admin Domain information that is saved on the switch.
Use the following procedure to update the information in the Admin Domain window with the
information saved on the switch.
1. In the Admin Domain window, click the Refresh arrow.
2. Click Refresh Admin Domains.
The information in the Admin Domain window is updated with the saved information on the
switch. This action also refreshes the fabric information as described in
“Refreshing fabric
information” on page 76. Any unsaved Admin Domain changes are deleted.
Saving local Admin Domain changes
All information displayed and all changes made in the Admin Domain window are buffered until you
save the changes. That means that any other user looking at the Admin Domain information for the
switch does not see the changes you made until you save them.
Use the following procedure to save the local Admin Domain changes.
1. Select Actions > Save AD Configuration to save your changes to persistent storage as the
defined Admin Domain configuration.
2. Select Actions > Apply AD Configuration to save your changes to persistent storage and make
your changes effective in the fabric.
These options are not enabled until you make a change to the Admin Domain configuration.
If another user has an Admin Domain operation in progress at the time that you attempt to save
changes, Web Tools displays a warning to indicate that another Admin Domain transaction is in
progress on the fabric. You can select to abort the other transaction and override it with yours.
This action updates the entire contents of the Admin Domain window, not just the selected Admin
Domain. You can save your changes at any time during the Admin Domain configuration session.
