Fabric Manager Client Quick Tour: Server Admin Perspective
Menu Bar
The menu bar at the top of the Fabric Manager main window provides options for managing and for
controlling the display of information on the Fabric pane. Server admin will not have all the options that
are available for SAN admin. The menu bar provides the following menus:
• File—Opens a new fabric, rediscovers the current fabric, locates switches, sets preferences, prints
the map.
• View—Changes the appearance of the map (these options are duplicated on the Fabric pane toolbar).
• Tools—Manages the Server and configuration using the FlexAttach virtual pWWN feature, as
described in the
“Using the Server Admin FlexAttach Wizards” section on page 14-9.
• Help—Displays online help topics for specific dialog boxes in the Information pane.
Tool Bar
The Fabric Manager main toolbar (specific to server admin) provides icons for accessing the most
commonly used menu bar options as shown in
Table 5-5.
Logical Domains Pane
Use the Logical Domains pane to view fabrics and to access user-defined groups. You can expand the
groups to see different user-defined groups. The non-editable groups created for each core switch
contains their NPV switches.
Physical Attributes Pane
Use the Physical Attributes pane to display a tree of the options available for managing the switches in
the currently selected fabric or group.
