Install the database that is to be used with Fabric Manager. Copy the Fabric Manager jar file m9000-fm-3.2.1a.jar from the CD-ROM to a folder on the Solaris workstation. Launch the installer using the following command: java -Xmx256m -jar m9000-fm-3.2.1a.jar Follow the onscreen instructions provided in the Fabric Manager management software setup wizard. To install Fabric Manager on Windows, follow these steps: Step 1 Step 2 Step 3 Step 4 Step 5 Step 6 Click the Install Management Software link. Choose Management Software > Cisco Fabric Manager. Click the Installing Fabric Manager link. Select the drive for your CD-ROM. Click the FM Installer link. Follow the onscreen instructions provided in the Fabric Manager Installer 3.2(1a). To install Device Manager on your workstation, follow these steps: Step 1 Step 2 Step 3 Step 4 Enter the IP address of the switch in the Address field of your browser. Click the Cisco Device Manager link in the Device Manager installation window. Click Next to begin the installation. Follow the onscreen instructions to complete the installation of Device Manager. Note If you use a Java JDK instead of a JRE on Solaris, you might encounter a problem trying to install the Devic Manager from a web browser. This can happen because the installer heap limit of 256 MB is not sufficient. If you have this problem, save the jnlp link as file, increase the heap limit to 512 MB, and run javaws element-manager.jnlp at the shell prompt.
