Configuring HyperFabric
Performing the Configuration
Chapter 482
• Subnet Mask—Optional. The adapter’s subnet mask. If you do not
specify this, a default mask is chosen based on the adapter’s IP
address.
• Interoperability Enabled—Required. Whether you want the
adapter to be able to interoperate with adapters that are using; any
HP-UX 11.0 HyperFabric versions earlier than B.11.00.11 or any
HP-UX 11i v1 HyperFabric versions earlier than B.11.11.01. Note
that if you select No, the HyperFabric software on the system will not
be backwards compatible with previous releases. This means you
must update all of the other systems in the fabric to the version that
is running on the system.
Default: No.
Step 7. Select OK (remember, you cannot enable switch management within
SAM).
Step 8. Exit SAM.
Once SAM has finished, you do one of the following things:
• If you want to configure HyperFabric with ServiceGuard, complete
the configuration described in “Configuring HyperFabric with
ServiceGuard” on page 87, then run clic_start or use SAM to start
HyperFabric.
• If you have just created the global configuration file on the local node
for the first time (and you are not configuring ServiceGuard), run
clic_start or use SAM to start HyperFabric.
• If you have just changed an existing configuration file on the node,
run clic_shutdown or use SAM to stop HyperFabric, and then run
clic_start or use SAM to start HyperFabric. Until you do those two
things, your configuration changes will not take effect.
See “Stopping HyperFabric” on page 128 and “Starting HyperFabric” on
page 109 for more information.
