Switch profile 3 Differentiation between switches and domains The following properties are used in CIM_CompterSystem to differentiate a simple switch, a switch created through VF, a switch created through Inter-Fabric Routing Profile (IFR), differentiating Front Domain from the Translate Domain, and the physical system that is partitioned. IdentifyingDescriptions = {"DomainID", "SNIA:DetailedType"}; OtherIdentifyingInfo = {"1", "Front Domain"}; where "1" is DomainID and type is Front Domain. OtherIdentifyingInfo has the value of DomainID and switch detailed type (Front Domain, Translate Domain, Virtual Switch or None). In case of VF setup, OtherIdentifyingInfo additionally has the values of the VF_ID, and IdentifyingDescriptions properties additionally has the value SNIA:VF_ID as the detailed type. PortDiscriminator in CIM_FCPort differentiates among ports that support IFR (FCR), internal and external ports, Virtual Fabrics (VF), Fibre Channel over IP (FCIP) and Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE). This property is applicable for only logical ports. The possible values are given in Table 9. TABLE 9 PortDiscriminator values No Port PortDiscriminator value 1 FC ports on the FCIP Ethernet port FCIP 2 Virtual FCoE ports inside the Elara internal + FCoE 3 Virtualized node ports in NPIV and Access Gateway NPIV 4 Front and xlate phantom FC ports (except the FF port from IFR virtual the backbone) 5 Front phantom FC port from the backbone connected to the IFR edge switch 6 ICL ports Chassis 7 Dynamically created FC ports for logical connections in VF virtual fabrics 8 All other FC ports (like physical ports) Not Applicable 9 CU ports of Blade Switches Internal Physical package, access points, software, blades, and location subprofiles The Physical Package, Access Points, Software, Blades, and Location subprofiles model the product information of a switch, the URL to launch the element manager of a switch, the blades within the chassis, and the details such as primary system owner name, contact, and location for a Brocade_Chassis. Table 10 explains the subprofiles and their functions. TABLE 10 Switch subprofiles Subprofiles Description Physical Package Access Points Models information about a storage system's physical package and optionally about internal subpackages. Provides remote access points for management tools. Brocade Network Advisor SMI Agent Developer's Guide 45 53-1002169-01
