Launching Cisco Fabric Manager
When you click on the Fabric Manager icon, the dialog box allows you to enter the IP address of a
computer running the FMServer component. If the server component is running on your local machine,
leave “localhost” in that field. If you try to run Fabric Manager without specifying a valid server, you
are prompted to start the FMServer.
On a Windows PC, you install the FMServer as a service. This service can then be administered using
the Service Panel in the Control Panel. The default setting for the FMServer service is that the server is
automatically started when the machine is rebooted. You can change this behavior by modifying the
properties in the Service panel.
Note
If your computer has multiple interface cards (NICs), choose a local interface that can reach Fibre
Channel network on clients and on the server.
