Installing and Configuring the Edge Switch 2/32
Task 8: Verify Switch-to-HAFM Server Communication
Communication must be verified between the switch and the HAFM server (High
Availability Fabric Manager and Product Manager applications). To verify
switch-to-server communication:
1. At the Windows 2000 desktop, click HAFM at the task bar (bottom of the
desktop) to maximize the Product View page.
2. At the Product View page, inspect the shape and color of the symbol behind the
Edge Switch 2/32 icon. Table 2–2 explains operational states and associated
symbols.
3. Double-click the switch icon. The Hardware View page for the selected switch
displays, as shown in Figure 2–8 . In the example, FRU failures are indicated by
Flashing red and yellow diamonds, and switch degradation is indicated by the
yellow triangle at the alert panel.
Table 2–2: Switch Operational States and Symbols
Operational State Symbol
Operational—switch-to server communication is established, the
switch is operational, and no failures are indicated. Go to “
Task 11:
Set Switch Date and Time ” on page 2–21.
Degraded—switch-to server communication is established, but the
switch is operating in degraded mode and requires service. This
condition is typical if a port or redundant FRU fails. Go to
step 3 .
Failed—switch-to server communication is established, but the
switch failed and requires immediate service. Go to
step 3 .
Status Unknown—the switch status is unknown because of a
network communication failure between the switch and
HAFM
server. Go to step 3 .
