Fabric Manager transition 3 Fabric Manager transition The visual differences between Fabric Manager and DCFM are large. Many of the functions remain, but the information is arranged very differently and often accessed in a different way. FIGURE 99 FM main interface 1. Menu Bar - Lists commands you can perform on the SAN. 2. Scope panel - Provides fields and values you can use to define the SAN view in the View panel. 3. View panel - Displays the SAN topology, including discovered and monitored devices and connections. 4. Task panel - Lists the common tasks that can be performed on devices discovered in the SAN. 5. Information panel - Displays the properties of the selected fabrics and devices. Only the Menu Bar and View Panel have been recognizably retained. The View panel is now known as the Connectivity Map. Table 21 briefly describes the mapping of the FM functions and visual panels to DCFM. TABLE 21 Fabric Manager to DCFM function mapping Fabric Manager Feature/panel DCFM Views are grouped by selecting SAN, Fabric, HostStorage, or MetaSAN from the View drop-down. Views are further grouped by selecting sub-options. Choices appear in the Scope panel. Properties are grouped in a set of tabs under the Fabric view (topology) panel. Context-sensitive tasks are launched from the Common Task panel. Views are scoped by selecting nodes from the Product List, and by selecting options from the View drop-down menu above the Product List. Multiple custom views can be created and saved using the menu command View > Manage View > Create View. Properties for various objects can be viewed by right-clicking on the object in either the Connectivity Map or in the Product List. Selected properties are also displayed in tabular form in the Product tree table. Most context-sensitive tasks can be accessed from a right-click menu on an object.
