HAFM Server Operation

After installing and properly configuring Windows 2000, HAFM, and the Web
and FTP servers, you must remove the internal CD-ROM drive from the HP
notebook PC and replace it with the internal Zip drive and blank disk. Do this
while the PC is powered off.
Because the HAFM server application is installed as a Windows 2000 service,
operation automatically begins after a power-on or restart of the HP notebook PC.
This is an important aspect of the HAFM server application because the
application continuously monitors the status of the Fibre Channel Edge Switches,
Directors, and fabrics. The HAFM server application alerts users through SNMP
or e-mail if important system events occur, regardless of whether or not a user is
logged on to Windows 2000. Additionally, the HAFM server can automatically
call home (via LAN or modem) and notify HP Services when a switch requires
service or a significant event occurs.
After you have installed and configured the HAFM software, and you have
rebooted the PC, the HAFM Services application automatically starts. When you
log on to Windows 2000, two windows display:
To control the HAFM server, use the Windows Service Control Manager in the
Administrative Tools folder under Control Panel.
Because the application is installed as a Windows 2000 service, it automatically
starts whenever the server PC is booted. Ordinarily, you should not need to stop
the service or change its startup parameters, but if you do, it should be done as
described in
