CUP fabrics overview Control Unit Port (CUP) is a protocol for managing FICON directors. Host-based management programs manage the switches using CUP protocol by sending commands to the emulated control device implemented by Fabric OS. A Brocade switch or director that supports CUP can be controlled - HP StorageWorks 4/32 | Brocade Web Tools Administrator's Guide v6.2.0 (53-100119 - Page 292
-switch routing policy. After port-based routing is enabled, you can continue with the remaining FICON implementation. 1. Click a switch with FICON devices attached from the Fabric Tree. 2. Open the Switch Administration window as described on page 41. 3. Click the FICON CUP tab. If the EGM license - HP StorageWorks 4/32 | Brocade Web Tools Administrator's Guide v6.2.0 (53-100119 - Page 293
) is used to support switch management using CUP. To be able to use the CUP functionality, all switches in the fabric must have FICON Management Server mode (FMS mode) enabled. FMS mode is a per-switch setting. After FMS mode is enabled, you can activate a CUP license without rebooting the director - HP StorageWorks 4/32 | Brocade Web Tools Administrator's Guide v6.2.0 (53-100119 - Page 294
