Faceplate data window tabs The Faceplate Data window contains six tabs at the bottom of the display.
Managing the fabric database A fabric database contains the set of fabrics that you have added during a SAN Utility session. Initially, a Topology window with an empty fabric database opens.
Opening a fabric view file Complete the following steps to open an existing fabric view file: 1. 2. 3. 4. In the Faceplate window, click File / Open View File, or click the Open icon. If there is a change to the fabric you are using, you are prompted to save the changes to the view file before opening a different view file. The Open View window opens. In the Open View window, type the name of the file you want to open. Type a file password if necessary. Click Load View File.
4. 5. 6. 7. Connect the interswitch links (ISL), but do not connect the devices. In the Port Properties window, configure the port types for the new switch (GL_Port, TL_Port, Donor). Connect the Fibre Channel devices to the switch module. In the Edit Zoning window, make the necessary zoning changes. Replacing a failed switch module in a fabric Complete the following steps to replace a failed switch module for which an archive is available.
• Right-click anywhere in the background of the Topology window. Select Refresh Fabric from the popup menu. The Topology window displays switch module and status icons that provide status information about switches, interswitch links, and the Ethernet connection. The switch module icons indicate different vendor switches and switch types. The switch module status icons, displayed on the left side of a switch, vary in shape and color.
Active Zoneset Data window The Active Zoneset Data window displays the zone membership for the active zone set that resides on the fabric management switch. The active zone set is the same on all switch modules in the fabric. You can confirm this by adding a fabric through another switch module and comparing Active Zone Set displays. To open the Active Zoneset Data window, click the Active Zoneset tab below the data window in the Topology window.
Zoning concepts The following zoning concepts provide some context for the zoning tasks described in this section: • Zones • Aliases • Zone sets • Zoning database • Zoning configuration Zones A zone is a named group of ports or devices that can communicate with each other. Membership in a zone is defined by port number, device Fibre Channel address, or device World Wide Name (WWN). Zone members can communicate only with members of the same zone.
Aliases You can create an alias to make it easier to add a group of ports or devices to one or more zones. An alias is a named set of ports or devices that are grouped together for convenience. Unlike zones, aliases impose no communication restrictions between its members. You can add an alias to one or more zones. However, you cannot add a zone to an alias, nor can an alias be a member of another alias. Zone sets A zone set is a named group of zones. A zone can be a member of more than one zone set.
Default visibility The Default Visibility parameter determines the level of communication that is permitted between devices when there is no active zone set. The default visibility parameter can be set differently on each switch module. When default visibility is enabled (set to All) on a switch module, all ports on the switch can communicate with all ports on switch modules that also have the Default Visibility parameter set to Enabled.
A zone merge will fail if the two active zone sets have member zones with identical names that differ in content or type. For example, consider Fabric A and Fabric B, each with a zone in its active zone set named “ZS1.” Fabric A “ZS1” contains a member specified by Domain ID 1 and Port 1; Fabric B “ZS1” contains a member specified by Domain ID 1 and Port 2. In this case, the merge fails, and the interswitch links between the fabrics are isolated.
Using the toolbar, pop-up menus, or a drag-and-drop method, you can create and manage zone sets and zones in the zoning database. Click Apply to save your changes to the zoning database without closing the window. Click OK to save your changes to the zoning database and close the window. The following table explains the toolbar buttons and functions. Table 18. Edit Zoning window toolbar buttons Toolbar button Function Create a new zone set. Create a new zone.

Click this handle or double-click the following entries to expand or contract them: • A zone set entry expands to show its member zones. • A zone entry expands to show its members by port number, worldwide name, or Fibre Channel address.
5. 6. Enter a value in the Rising Threshold field. The rising threshold is the event count above which an event is logged. After the count exceeds the rising threshold, one alarm is logged. The switch module will not generate another alarm for that event until the count falls below the falling threshold and rises again above the rising threshold. Enter a sample interval, in milliseconds. The sample interval defines the period of time in which to count events. 7.
Configuring a switch module The SAN Utility is used to configure the switch module. Switch module configuration is divided into two areas: chassis configuration and network configuration. Chassis configuration specifies parameters that relate to switch module identity on the Fibre Channel network. Network configuration specifies parameters that relate to switch module identity on the Ethernet network. To open the Switch Properties window, click Switch / Switch Properties.
Domain ID and Domain ID Lock The domain ID is a unique Fibre Channel identifier for the switch module. The Fibre Channel address consists of the domain ID, port ID, and the Arbitrated Loop Physical Address (ALPA). The maximum number of switch modules within a fabric is 239, with each switch having a unique domain ID. Switch modules come from the factory with the domain IDs unlocked.
Timeout values The switch module timeout values determine the timeout values for all external ports on the switch. Table 22 describes the switch module timeout parameters. R_A_TOV, R_T_TOV, or E_D_TOV values must be the same for all switch modules in the fabric. ✏ NOTE Timeout values can be changed only if the switch module operational state is offline. Table 22. Timeout values Parameter Description R_A_TOV Resource Allocation Timeout.
IP configuration The IP configuration identifies the switch module on the Ethernet network and determines which start (boot) method to use. Start methods described in the following table are for external and internal ports. Table 23 describes the IP configuration parameters. Table 23. IP configuration parameters Parameter IP address Description Internet protocol (IP) address for the Ethernet port.
Complete the following steps to archive a switch module configuration: 1. 2. In the Faceplate window, click Switch ” Archive. In the Save window, type a file name. 3. Click Save.
