HP HyperFabric manual Using SAM-HP-UX 11.0 and 11i 0nly, Step

Managing HyperFabric

Starting HyperFabric

The clic_start -?command can be issued to display the online help for clic_start, or look at the clic_start (1m) man page by issuing the man clic_start command.

If HyperFabric is already running, you will receive an informational (FYI) message telling you so. Your reaction to this message depends on the situation:

•If you have simply forgotten (or did not know) that HyperFabric was already running, you do not have to do anything.

•If you have changed the HyperFabric configuration with the clic_init command or SAM, you must stop HyperFabric (by running the clic_shutdown command or using SAM) and then start HyperFabric (by running the clic_start command or using SAM). See either “Using the clic_shutdown Command” on page 99 or “Using SAM—HP-UX 11.0 and 11i 0nly” on page 100, whichever is appropriate.

		Using SAM—HP-UX 11.0 and 11i 0nly
		To use SAM to start HyperFabric on an HP 9000 system running HP-UX 11.0 or 11i,
		follow these steps:
Step	1.	Start SAM.
Step	2.	Select the “Networking and Communications” area.
Step	3.	Select “HyperFabric.”
Step	4.	Pull down the “Actions” menu and select Start HyperFabric. Note that with a HP-UX

11.0operating system, if HyperFabric is already running, Start HyperFabric is grayed out and cannot be selected. With a HP-UX 11i operating system, if HyperFabric is already running, Start HyperFabric is not grayed out. With HP-UX 11i the newly added adapter can be configured and started (using OLA), without doing a clic_shutdown or a clic_start on the node.

When HyperFabric starts, a confirmation message displays. Also, the status

“HyperFabric: Running” is displayed above the adapter configuration area of the screen.

Step 5. Exit SAM.
