Using the Admin Domain window
7
You can refresh the Admin Domain information at any time to reflect changes that might have been
made by other users or to back out of current, unsaved work and start again.
ATTENTION
When you refresh the buffered information in the Admin Domain window, any Admin Domain
configuration changes you have made and not yet saved are erased from the buffer and replaced
with the currently enabled Admin Domain information that is saved on the switch.
Use the following procedure to update the information in the Admin Domain window with the
information saved on the switch.
1. In the Admin Domain window, click the drop-down arrow on the Refresh button, and then click
Refresh Admin Domains.
The information in the Admin Domain window is updated with the saved information on the
switch. This action also refreshes the fabric information as described in “Refreshing fabric
information” on page 86. Any unsaved Admin Domain changes are deleted.
Saving local admin domain changes
All information displayed and all changes made in the Admin Domain window are buffered until you
save the changes. That means that any other user looking at the Admin Domain information for the
switch will not see the changes you have made until you save them.
Click Actions> Save AD Configuration to save your changes to persistent storage as the defined
Admin Domain configuration. Click Actions> Apply AD Configuration to save your changes to
persistent storage and make your changes effective in the fabric. These options are not enabled
until you make a change to the Admin Domain configuration.
If another user has an Admin Domain operation in progress at the time that you attempt to save
changes, Web Tools displays a warning to indicate that another Admin Domain transaction is in
progress on the fabric. You can select to abort the other transaction and override it with yours.
This action updates the entire contents of the Admin Domain window, not just the selected Admin
Domain. You can save your changes at any time during the Admin Domain configuration session.
Closing the Admin Domain window
It is very important to remember that any changes you make in the Admin Domain window are not
saved automatically.
1. In the Admin Domain window, click File > Close.
If there are changes in the buffer that have not been saved, a warning appears. Confirm that
you want to close the Admin Domain session without saving the changes.
2. Click Yes to close without saving changes or click No to go back to the Admin Domain window
to save the changes (see “Saving local admin domain changes” on page 87).
