10 Sun Storage Fibre Channel Switch 5802 QuickTools User Guide • September 2008
Setting QuickTools Preferences
Using the preferences settings, you can:
■ Change the location of the working directory for user and event files. A changed
working directory is applicable only to the dialogs which are opened for the first
time after changing the directory or restarting the application.
■ Change the location of the browser used to view the online help.
■ Select a Display Dialog When Making Non-secure Connections option. If enabled,
the Non-secure Connections Check dialog is displayed when you attempt to open
a non-secure fabric. You then have the option of opening a non-secure fabric. If
disabled (default), you cannot open a fabric with a non-secure connection.
■ Enable (default) or disable the Event Browser. Refer to Event Browser. If the Event
Browser is enabled using the Preferences dialog (
FIGURE 1-5) the next time
QuickTools is started, all events will be displayed. If the Event Browser is
disabled when QuickTools is started and later enabled, only those events from the
time the Event Browser was enabled and forward will be displayed.
■ Choose a Preferred Initial Port View option (shown in the faceplate display).
Options include port type (default), port speed, port operational state, and port
transceiver media. Regardless of the port view you choose, you can change the
port view in the faceplate display by opening the View menu and selecting a
different port view option. Refer to the corresponding subsection for more
information:
■ Port Types
■ Port Operational States
■ Port Speeds
■ Port Transceiver Media Status
