1.Select Configure > Port Groups.

The Port Groups dialog box displays only port groups defined by you.

If a fabric becomes un-monitored, any port groups associated with that fabric do not display in the Port Groups list. Once the fabric becomes monitored again, the associated port groups display in the Port Groups list.

If a fabric is removed from discovery, any port groups associated with that fabric are removed permanently from the Port Groups dialog box.

If a device is removed from a fabric, then all ports associated with that device are automatically removed permanently from the port group. If the port group only contains ports from the removed device, then the port group is removed permanently from the Port Groups dialog box.

If a fabric or device is added to the topology while the Port Groups dialog box is open, it does not display in the Group Type - FC Ports tree until you close and reopen the Port Groups dialog box.
