Fibre Channel Arbitrated Loop Hub Monitor

Adding or Removing an FC-AL Hub

Adding or removing a hub from the monitor conﬁguration involves changing the same conﬁguration ﬁle settings described in the preceding procedure, HUB_COUNT and HUB_X_IP_ADDRESS.

Changing the FC-AL Hub Monitoring Conﬁguration

To change the FC

Step	1.	Determine the IP address for each hub your are adding or deleting.
Step	2.	Open ﬁle /var/stm/config/tools/monitor/dm_fc_hub.cfg in an ASCII text editor.
Step	3.	Locate the following line in the ﬁle and change value “n” to reﬂect the new number of hubs to be
		monitored:
		HUB_COUNT n
Step	4.	If you are adding a hub, add the following line to ﬁle:
		HUB_X_IP_ADDRESS nn.nn.nnn.nnn
		Change the placeholder “X” to the number you want assigned to the hub (typically the next
		sequential number available), and replace the “nn” ﬁelds with the IP address of the hub.
		The completed line will look similar to the following:
		HUB_5_IP_ADDRESS 15.43.214.101
		Repeat this step for each hub you are adding.
Step	5.	If you are removing a hub, locate the HUB_X_IP_ADDRESS line for the hub to be removed and delete
		it from the ﬁle. If you deleting multiple hubs, delete the line for each one.
Step	6.	Save the ﬁle.
Step	7.	To invoke the changes immediately, run the Hardware Monitoring Request Manager and select the
		(E)nable Monitoring option. This option runs the startup client, which will cause the changes to the
		hub monitoring to take effect immediately. See “Enabling Hardware Event Monitoring” on page 42
		for more information.

Alternatively you can do nothing and the changes will be made at the next hub polling interval when the monitor recognizes the changes and launches the startup client to invoke them
