Monitoring and Managing the Director
This chapter describes how to use the features available in the Product Manager main
panel to monitor and manage director operation. These features include status
indicators, menu options, and dialog boxes available through the Hardware View,
Port List View, FRU List View, Node List View, and Performance View.
Hardware View
The Hardware View is the default view that is shown when you open the Product
Manager. If another view displays, you can display the Hardware View by choosing
the Hardware View tabs. Using this graphical view of the director, you can view
status symbols and simulated light emitting diode (LED) indicators, display data, and
use mouse functions to monitor status and obtain vital product information for the
director and its hardware components.
Identifying FRUs
Move the cursor over parts of the director graphic in the Hardware View to display
labels identifying each hardware component and its slot position in the chassis relative
to identical components installed in the director. Components include:
•
Port cards.
— The Director 2/64 contains up to 16 port cards, slot positions 15 through 0
(left to right).
— The Director 2/140 contains up to 32 port cards in the front of the unit and up
to three additional port cards in the rear.
As you move the cursor over each card, labels display, identifying the card's slot
number and port technology. Acronyms that may display to identify port
technology, such as UPM, GSML, GXXL, FPM, GLSR, GSMR, GLSL, and
GXXR also display in the FRU column of the FRU List View. Refer to “
FRU
List View
