When changing the HAFM appliance time to an earlier time, the Ethernet link to
Directors and Edge Switches may be lost, or an open element manager may close.
When attempting to reopen the element m anag er, the error message The link to

Workaround
If the date/time of the HAFM appliance needs to be set to an earlier time, perform
the following:
1. Exit the HA FM application.
2. Select Start > Programs > HP StorageWorks ha-fabric m anager 8.6 > Stop
Services.
3. Chang e the date/time on the HAFM appliance.
4. Select Star t > Programs > HP StorageWorks ha-fabric manager 8.6 > Start
Services.
5. Restart the H

This procedure works even if you previously set the date/time to an earlier time without
using these steps. Rebooting the HAFM appliance will also clear up this problem.
Exiting the
HAFM application or rebooting the HAFM appliance has no impact on
the operati
