3.6.0 Matrix Server Command Reference (5697-7083, December 2007)

Chapter 3: mx Commands 62

This command can be used only when the matrix is offline. If you set

FibreChannel as the fencing method, you must also configure the

FibreChannel switches connected to the matrix. This step is optional for

web-based fencing.

The default SNMP community string for Matrix Server is private. If you want

to use a custom community string, use the --community option to enter the

appropriate value. The SNMP community string must be set to the same

value on Matrix Server and on the SAN switches.
