Using The Software Tab - HP 316095-B21 - StorageWorks Edge Switch 2/24 User Manual

The differences between the to-be-populated settings and current settings on each individual
product are displayed, because the Apply To dialog box takes changes made on user settings for
one product, and generalizes them to multiple products whose user settings can be totally different.
The new settings replace the existing settings on other products.
To thoroughly check the new changes, click different products on the Product List and view detailed
changes.
Populating user-related settings to multiple products causes the new settings to override the
NOTE:
existing settings.
Clicking Start causes the HAFM appliance to populate changes to the switch specified in the
products list. The Close button is disabled during this process to prevent you from disrupting the
process. Close is enabled after the process is complete or the process is aborted because of a
product failure.
The bottom Status window displays the status of each product. If all changes are successfully
populated to a product, the status displays the product name and a message indicating success. If
the switch loses manageability or connection, a message is displayed with an Error icon. The
remaining changes continue to process. The Security Administrator can maintain the configuration
data on the Users tab, fix the connection problems, and return to the either Apply or Apply To
dialog box. Select the unfinished products and repeat the confirmation process.
If there are no security settings being changed, Apply and Apply To can be selected. When this
occurs, the Security Change Confirmation and Status dialog box is displayed with the Detailed
Changes table and a message indicates that no changes were found. Clicking Start displays a
Status message that indicates the security settings are identical and that there are no changes to
apply.

Using the Software tab

The Software tab (Figure 1 12) enables you to define software access to the switch through the API
and the OSMS interface. Unlike the Telnet and HAFM Basic interfaces, the API user uses the HAFM
appliance name (which is the server name defined at installation) as the ID, and uses the CHAP
Secret as the password. The OSMS interface allows HAFM to manage the switch from in-band. The
only information required for the OSMS interface is the OSMS key.
