— Information about attached devices (nodes).
•
Operations panel -
perform the following operations and
maintenance tasks:
— Enable port beaconing and perform port diagnostics (internal
and external loopback tests).
— Reset Fibre Channel ports.
— Set the switch online state.
— Upgrade switch firmware.
General tasks performed through the SANpilot interface are similar
in form and function to tasks performed through the EFC Manager
and Element Manager applications, and are therefore not
documented in this publication. For task information and
descriptions, open the online user documentation (Help selection)
that supports the interface.
This publication provides instructions for switch installation and
fault isolation using the SANpilot interface. Refer to
Chapter 2,
Installation tasks
for installation and configuration tasks. Refer to
Chapter 3,
Diagnostics
for fault isolation tasks.
SNMP trap message support
Unsolicited SNMP trap messages that indicate switch operational
state changes or failure conditions can be customer-configured to be
transmitted to up to 12 management workstations. If installed on a
dedicated Ethernet LAN, the workstations communicate directly
with each switch. If installed on a customer intranet, the workstations
communicate with switches through the management server.
SNMP data and trap messages are defined in the Fibre Channel
FE-MIB definition, a subset of the TCP/IP MIB-II definition (RFC
1213), and a custom, switch-specific MIB. Customers can install these
MIBs (in standard ASN.1 format) on any SNMP management
workstation.
Although SNMP trap messages are typically transmitted to customer
personnel only, the messages may be provided to service personnel as
initial notification of a switch problem or as information included in
the fault isolation process. Generic SNMP traps include:
•
coldStart -
reports that the SNMP agent is reinitializing due to a
switch reset.
