NOTE: Information on installing and starting the GUI version of QLogic’s QConvergeConsole utility is provided in the
QConvergeConsole User's Guide . All procedural information for that utility is covered in the online help system.
Introduction to QConvergeConsole
QConvergeConsole is a unified adapter web management interface. This web-based client/server utility provides for
centralized management and configuration of QLogic adapters within the entire network (LAN and SAN).
On the server side, QConvergeConsole runs as an Apache Tomcat server web utility. After the utility is launched on the web
server, you can connect to the QConvergeConsole’s graphical user interface (GUI) through a browser, either locally on the
server or remotely from another computer. Your browser window becomes the client used to connect to servers that host the
QLogic adapters and connected storage devices within the network.
The QConvergeConsole web management interface displays the main window used to connect to servers that host QLogic
adapters. Each host server may include a combination of the following QLogic adapters:
4Gb and 8Gb Fibre Channel Adapters (QLx24 xx and QLx25 xx )
Intelligent Ethernet Adapters (QLE324 x )
Converged Network Adapters (QLE81 xx and QLE82 xx )
Note the following:
The QConvergeConsole web utility works with the Windows XP Professional, Windows 2000, Windows Server 2003,
Windows Vista, Windows Server 2008, Linux Red Hat Advanced Server, Linux SuSE SLES, Solaris SPARC, Solaris x86,
Novell® NetWare®, and Macintosh OS X operating systems. Multiple operating system support allows control of
heterogeneous environments.
The QConvergeConsole web interface runs on the two most recent versions of commonly used web browsers, including
Apple Safari, Mozilla Firefox, Google Chrome, and Microsoft Internet Explorer.
The QConvergeConsole help system’s Search and Index tools work best when running the help system using Internet
Explorer or Firefox browsers. Although the help topics display correctly in Chrome or Safari browsers, they do not
support the features required to display the Index and Search results.
