OSM Service Connection User's Guide (G06.30+)

FCDM Collection
Attributes
Actions
The OSM Service Connection displays all Fibre Channel disk modules (FCDMs) within FCDM
Collection objects, whether or not they are daisy-chained. FCDMs that are daisy-chained together
(up to four) are displayed within the same FCDM Collection object. If an FCDM Collection object
contains only one FCDM, it is not daisy-chained. Other FCDMs that are not daisy-chained appear
under separate in FCDM Collection objects.
The FCDM Collection object appears within the same group object as the IOAM enclosure to which
the FCDM is connected. If the FCDM is connected to Fibre Channel ServerNet adapters located in
different IOAM enclosures (for increased fault tolerance), OSM displays the FCDM Collection in the
lower-numbered group.
For information on daisy-chaining FCDMs, see the Modular I/O Installation and Configuration
Guide in NTL.
