Configuring the Director
118 Director Element Manager User Guide
Configuring Operating Parameters
Use the procedures in this section to set parameters on the director for switch and
fabric operation. These operating parameters are stored in NV-RAM on the
switch.
Configuring Switch Parameters
Use procedures in this section to set parameters on the director for switch
operation through the Configure Switch Parameters dialog box.
1. Verify that the director is set offline. For instructions, see the “Set Director
Online State” bullet on page 74.
Caution: Setting the director offline terminates all Fibre Channel connections.
2. Click Configure > Operating Parameters > Switch Parameters. The
Configure Switch Parameters dialog box displays. Figure 32 illustrates this
dialog box for the Director 2/140.

as required for parameters in this dialog box.
2. After you change settings, click the Activate button.
3. Set the director online. For instructions, see the “Set Director Online State”
bullet on page 74.
