10 Configuring the backbone fabric ID Click the Physical Devices or Proxy Devices element in the tree to see a detailed list of the physical or proxy devices. Click the device name in the tree for more detailed information about a specific device, as shown in Figure 62. FIGURE 62 FC Routing module with LSAN Devices tab selected Configuring the backbone fabric ID The FC-FC Routing Service must be disabled when configuring the backbone fabric ID. Web Tools automatically disables FC-FC Routing before setting the fabric ID and then reenables it afterwards; however, you must first disable all of the EX_Ports before you invoke this operation. After the fabric ID has been changed, you can enable these ports again manually. The fabric ID for a backbone fabric must be different than the fabric IDs of all other edge fabrics; otherwise, a fabric ID conflict error could occur. Make sure that all switches in the backbone fabric have the same fabric ID. To configure a backbone fabric ID 1. Open the Switch Administration window. 2. Click FCR in the Manage section of the Tasks menu. 3. Click the EX-Ports tab. 4. Disable all of the EX_Ports by selecting all of the ports in the table and then clicking Disable. 5. Click the General tab. 144 Web Tools Administrator's Guide Publication Number: 53-1000435-01
