Managing SAN products
Use the HAFM application to manage discovered products.
Using the Element Manager
You can use the Element Manager to manage switches and directors directly from the HAFM
application.
NOTE: Use only one copy of the application to monitor and manage the same devices in a subnet.
Opening multiple copies of the application could result in errors.
Opening the Element Manager from the user interface
Use the Element Manager to search for a product, change product properties, and perform other
configuration and maintenance tasks.
There are two ways to open the Element Manager from the HAFM user interface:
• Right-click a product icon and select Element Manager.
• Double-click a product icon.
Opening the Element Manager from the command line
The HAFM application contains a script that opens an Element Manager. To use the script:
1. Ensure that the HAFM appliance is running and the product is discovered.
2. Use a text editor to open the following script:
Install_Home\bin\HAFM_ElementMgr.bat.
3. Under the heading, rem HAFM Element Manager, find the line that begins:
...ElementManagerStandAlone -s ServerIp -p ProductIp -u UserName -pw
