Fabric Configuration Server
One or more designated HP switches that store and manage the configuration and security
parameters for all other switches in the fabric. These switches are designated by WWN, and the list
of designated switches is known fabric-wide.
Fabric Manager
An HP product that works in conjunction with Web Tools to provide a graphical user interface for
managing switch groups (such as the SAN Switch Integrated/32) as a single unit, instead of as
separate switches. Fabric Manager is installed on and run from a computer workstation.
Fabric Name
The unique identifier assigned to a fabric and communicated during login and port discovery.
Fabric OS
The proprietary operating system on HP StorageWorks switches.
Fabric Watch
An HP product that runs on Fabric OS and allows monitoring and configuration of fabric and
switch elements.
Allows the SAN manager to monitor key fabric and switch elements, making it easy to quickly
identify and escalate potential problems. It monitors each element for out-of-boundary values or
counters and provides notification when defined boundaries are exceeded. The SAN manager can
configure which elements, such as error, status, and performance counters, are monitored within an
HP switch.

Factory Account
A login used during manufacturing to initialize and test a switch and is not intended for customer
use.
See also account level switches.
Failover
The act that causes control to pass from one redundant unit to another. In the StorageWorks Core
switch one may failover from the currently Active Control Processor (CP) to the Standby CP.
FAN
Fabric access notification. Retains the AL_PA and fabric address when loop re-initializes (if the
switch supports FAN).
FC-AL-3
The Fibre Channel Arbitrated Loop standard defined by ANSI. Defined on top of the FC-PH
standards.
