FABRIC MANAGER & DEVICE MANAGER GUI SETUP
The optional Cisco Fabric/Device Manager GUI (graphical user interface) is a Java application.
The Fabric/Device Manager installation process is based on requirements for installing Java Web
Start. Refer to the Cisco MDS 9000 Fabric Manager Release Notes for system requirements and
installation instructions.
To install Device Manager, use a web browser to make an http:// connection to the IP address of a
C-series switch.
Note:
Device Manager cannot be installed from the MDS 9020.
Starting with SAN-OS 3.2(1a), Fabric Manager is no longer embedded in the SAN-OS software.
Fabric Manager is available from a CD-ROM or provided by HP in the SAN-OS image bundle.
For additional information on how to install Fabric Manager refer to the "Installation of Cisco
MDS SAN-OS and Fabric Manager" section in the Cisco MDS 9000 Family Fabric Manager
Configuration Guide.
Starting with SAN-OS 3.3(1a), Fabric Manager Update Installer is provided by HP in the SAN-
OS image bundle. The installer allows the user to upgrade an existing system running Fabric
Manager Standalone or Fabric Manager Server without requiring the Management Software and
Documentation CD.
The following is an example of how to upgrade Windows Fabric Manager using the Fabric
Manager Update Installer.
1. Copy the Installer jar file to your Fabric Manager system
2. At the command prompt, locate the directory where the jar file is placed
3. Type the following command:
java.exe –Xmx512m –jar <jar file>
4. Follow the onscreen instructions provided in the Fabric Manager upgrade software
setup wizard
Refer to the Cisco MDS 9000 Family Fabric Manager Configuration Guide for additional
installation instructions.
Note:
The MDS 9020 currently runs FabricWare 2.1(3); HP recommends using the latest supported
Fabric/Device Manager when managing this switch via the GUI.
