HP StorageWorks Fabric Manager 5.x Administrator Guide (AA-RUQSF-TE, September 2005)

24 Installation
NOTE: You may encounter issues when using XWindows emulators from Windows to access the Sun
host.
If you are installing the Fabric Manager client on a Solaris system with BASH as the default shell, you must
run the bash --login command before launching the Fabric Manager client; otherwise, Fabric
Manager does not run correctly.
Windows
When you install Fabric Manager over an existing version, the install wizard finds the existing serial
number and license key and attempts to validate them. If the serial number and license key are valid, the
install wizard does not ask you to reenter them. The serial number and license key are saved. If the serial
number and license key are not valid, you must reenter the serial number and license key to install the full
version of Fabric Manager.
If you launch the Fabric Manager install wizard on a Windows XP or 2003 machine and an After
Installation window opens, click Cancel to exit. The After Installation window provides access to a
Windows program that exists only on a few Windows XP or 2003 machines (depending on your
Windows image). If you do not cancel this program, your Fabric Manager shortcut is moved to the All
Users folder after the installation is complete. Also, if you subsequently uninstall Fabric Manager, the
uninstall wizard is unable to remove the Fabric Manager menu item from the Start > Programs menu.
To find the name of the Windows authentication domain that must be specified during installation, open a
DOS window and enter set. The alias USERDOMAIN indicates the active domain. If the client and server
are to reside on different Microsoft domains, both domains must have trusts established between them or
Fabric Manager is not able to authenticate the client.
NOTE: The domain name required is not the internet domain (such as corp.mycompany.com); it is the
domain name Microsoft uses for authentication.
Upgrading Fabric Manager
If you are upgrading to Fabric Manager 5.0, you need a new license key. License keys for versions earlier
than 5.0 can no longer be used.
Fabric Manager has the following license types:
• 4 Domain Limit
• 10 Domain Limit
• Unlimited Upgrade (4 domain to unlimited)
• Unlimited Upgrade (10 domain to unlimited)
• Unlimited Upgrade (Fabric Manager 4.x unlimited to Fabric Manager 5.x unlimited)
• 10 Domain Limit Upgrade Version (4 to 10 domain)
• 4 Domain Limit Upgrade (Fabric Manager 4.x with 4 domains to Fabric Manager 5.x with 4 domains)
• 10 Domain Limit Upgrade (Fabric Manager 4.x with 10 domains to Fabric Manager 5.x with 10
domains)
NOTE: Licensing for Fabric Manager is per server, not one copy per site.
You can upgrade to Fabric Manager 5.0.0 from versions 4.2.x or 4.4.x. All configuration data is migrated
to 5.0.
If you have earlier versions of Fabric Manager, you must first upgrade them to 4.2.x or 4.4.x, and then
upgrade to 5.0.
