Installing Fabric Manager
Installing Device Manager
If you installed Fabric Manager Server, icons for Fabric Manager and Device Manager are not created
on the desktop until you launch Fabric Manager Client. Follow the instructions in the
“Launching Fabric
Manager Client in Cisco SAN-OS Release 3.2(1) and Later” section on page 4-1
to launch Fabric
Manager Client.
If you checked the Create shortcuts check box, a Cisco MDS 9000 program group is created under Start
> Programs on Windows. This program group contains shortcuts to batch files in the install directory.
Three services are started: Fabric Manager Server, Database, and Web Server. The Performance Manager
server is installed but the service is not started upon installation, because certain setup steps must be
completed first.
On a UNIX (Solaris or Linux) machine, shell scripts are created in the install directory. The shell scripts
that run the programs equivalent to the Windows services are: FMServer.sh, FMPersist.sh,
PMCollector.sh, and FMWebClient.sh. All server-side data and Performance Manager data are stored in
the install directory.
Fabric Manager Client cannot run without Fabric Manager Server. The server component is downloaded
and installed when you download and install Fabric Manager. On a Windows machine you install the
Fabric Manager Server as a service. This service can then be administered using Services in the
Microsoft Windows Control Panel. The default setting for the Fabric Manager Server service is that the
server is automatically started when the machine is rebooted. You can change this behavior by modifying
the properties in Services.
