HAFM Diagnostics

The HAFM application provides a Java-based GUI to manage, monitor, and isolate problems for multiple switches and multi-switch fabrics. The user interface operates locally on the HAFM server, or through an Ethernet LAN connection from a remote user workstation. The application starts automatically when the HAFM server is powered on or rebooted, and the default display is the main HAFM window, or Product View (Figure 1–10). If you are using a remote user workstation, see Log Into the HAFM in the hp StorageWorks edge switch 2/16 product manager user guide (A7284-96003/AA-RS2KA-TE). Managed products (including switches) appear as icons in the window, and a set of view tabs appear at the top of the window. A status bar displays below the view area of the screen.

Figures containing HAFM and product manager screens in this manual are included for illustration purposed only. These illustrations may not match exactly what you see through your server or workstation. Title bars have been removed from the illustrations, and fields in the illustrations may contain different data than the screens displayed on your system.

NOTE: Icons shown in the Product View will vary, based on what is installed in the particular fabric being represented.

The HAFM application is independent from the switch or other products managed by the HAFM server. Service personnel can perform the following maintenance and diagnostic functions:

•Display the operational status for each managed product.

•Display logs that provide service and diagnostic-related information.

•Open a product manager application to monitor or fault-isolate a specific switch.

•Select the Products tab to view hardware, node list, port list, performance, and FRU list views and to configure and diagnose hardware problems.

•Select the Fabrics tab to monitor or fault-isolate multi-switch fabric problems.
