Rediscovering a Fabric
After making changes to or deleting switches from a fabric view, it may be helpful to again view the actual fabric configuration. The rediscover fabric option clears out the current fabric information being displayed, and rediscovers all switch information. To rediscover a fabric, open the Fabric menu, and select Rediscover Fabric. The rediscover function is more comprehensive than the refresh function.
