Managing the switch

•
Fabric OS features available to the IBM Flex System FC5022 16Gb SAN Scalable Switch
depend on whether the switch is configured in Access Gateway or Fabric OS Native mode. For a
list of available features for each mode, refer to the
Access Gateway Administrator’s Guide
Supporting Fabric OS v7.0.0
.
•
In Access Gateway mode, the external ports can be N_Ports, and the internal ports (1–28) can
be F_Ports.
To disable and enable Access Gateway mode, refer to the
Access Gateway Administrator’s Guide
Supporting Fabric OS v7.0.0
.
Backing up the configuration
Prior to backing up a switch configuration, you can check the switch configuration by initiating the
switchShow and fabricShow commands. The switchShow command displays switch and port
status; the fabricShow command displays fabric membership information.
Complete these steps to back up the switch configuration to an FTP server.
1. Open a Telnet or SSH session to the switch.
2. Enter configUpload, which uploads the switch configuration to the server, making it available
for downloading to a replacement switch, if necessary.
You are presented with a series of prompts.
3. Follow the prompts to upload the configuration.
It is recommended that you back up the configuration on a regular basis to ensure that a complete
configuration is available for downloading to a replacement switch.
For specific instructions about how to back up a configuration, refer to the
Fabric OS
Administrator’s Guide
. For detailed information about the commands used in backing up a
configuration, refer to the
Fabric OS Command Reference
Manual
.
Resetting the switch to factory defaults
ATTENTION
Restoring the switch to factory defaults is disruptive. Before doing so, make sure any program using
the switch has an alternate path to the storage, and save the switch configuration. If the switch is
connected to an existing SAN, disconnect the switch from the SAN before restoring to factory
defaults, then follow proper setup procedures before reconnecting.
Use the CMM to reset the switch to factory defaults.
1. Open the CMM and log in with admin privileges.
2. Select I/O Module Tasks > Configuration.
3. Select the bay where the switch is installed.
4. Select Advanced Configuration.
5. Click Restore Defaults.
