Although many different software and hardware configurations are tested and supported by

configurations and scenarios is beyond the scope of this document; however, this document does

specify when procedures or parts of procedures apply only to specific switches.

This document does not support all 5.x Fabric OS versions. This document is specific to Fabric OS

v5.3.0. To obtain information about an OS version other than v5.3.0, see the documentation

specific to that OS version.

What’s New in This Document

The following Information was added:

- Administrative Domains: If the Administrative Domain feature is enabled, the local switch

must be a member of the Administrative Domain, or the following Fabric Watch tools might

not work correctly:

• Fabric Watch commands might not work correctly. By default, AD0 and AD255 have

permanent membership, and so the Fabric Watch commands should work unless you

change the default settings. See the Fabric OS Administrator’s Guide for more

information on the Administrative Domains feature.

• Web Tools Fabric Watch interface will allow view-only access to all threshold

configuration and current values unless the local switch is a member of the current,

enabled Administrative Domain.

Information that was changed or removed:

• Updated fan and temperature default threshold values for the Brocade 7500.

• Updated fan default threshold value for the Brocade 4900.

• Updated temperature default threshold values for the Brocade 48000.

• Minor format changes.
