Parsing failures
If the configuration file contains errors while being parsed, the AMM Web interface
displays an Open Fabric Manager Configuration Failure. The page contains a
table that shows the line number of each error and a brief description of the error.
You must fix all of the errors in the configuration file before continuing.
For a detailed description of these errors, see "Error messages" on page 34.
Connection failures
If the AMM is unable to connect to any of the chassis' that are listed in the
configuration file, the Web interface displays an Open Fabric Manager
Configuration Failure. The page contains a table that shows the IP address of the
chassis it is unable to connect to. If you want to ignore this chassis and apply the
configuration anyway, you can press Ignore. Ignoring a chassis might result in
duplicate addresses, because the AMM cannot compare the addresses against the
ones that are being used by the unreachable chassis. You can also suppress this
warning by selecting the Continue on error advanced option on the Apply a
Configuration page.
Login failures
The AMM uses the user name and password that you used to login to the current
AMM to attempt to login to the other AMMs. If the AMM fails to login to the
other AMMs using these credentials, the Web interface displays an Open Fabric
Manager Autentication Failure page. This page gives you the option to provide an
alternate user name and password for the chassis. If you check the box next to use
this user and password for the rest of the AMMs, this user name and password
will be attempted on all other chassis the AMM fails to connect to.
After you fill in the user name and password, click Retry. If you wish to ignore
this chassis and continue to apply the configuration anyway click Ignore. If you
wish to ignore all the chassis to which the AMM fails to login click Ignore All.
Ignoring a chassis might result in duplicate addresses since the AMM cannot
compare the addresses against the ones that are being used by the unreachable
chassis. You can also suppress this warning by selecting the Continue on error
advanced option on the Apply a Configuration page.
Important: You can get a login failed message in cases where all the TCP
Command Mode connections to the AMM are in use. If you get the
login failed message when using a valid user name and password,
make sure that the AMM connection limit of the AMM you failed to
login to is more than the number of connections in use (if, for example,
Director is using one connection). This is controlled through the AMM
Web interface on MM Control→Network Protocols→TCP Command
Mode Protocol.
Retrieve failure
If the AMM fails to retrieve the OFM configuration from any of the chassis, the
Web interface displays an Open Fabric Manager Retrieve Failure page. Failure to
retrieve the OFM configuration usually occurs when the other chassis' do not
support OFM or if there are communication errors.
