Verifying Interoperating Status
This section highlights the steps used to verify if the fabric is up and running in interoperability mode.
To verify the interoperability status of the Cisco Nexus 5000 Series switch using Fabric Manager,
perform this task:
Step 1 Choose Switches in the Physical Attributes pane and check the release number in the Information pane
to verify the Cisco SAN-OS release.
Step 2 In the Physical Attributes pane, expand Switches > Interfaces, and then choose FC Physical to verify
the interface modes for each switch.
Step 3 Expand Fabricxx in the Logical Domains pane, and then choose All VSANs to verify the interop mode
for all VSANs.
Step 4 Expand Fabricxx > All VSANs, and then choose Domain Manager to verify the domain IDs, local, and
principal sWWNs for all VSANs (see Figure 22-6).
