FICON Management Server
This option only displays if the FICON Management Server inband management
feature was enabled through the Configure Feature Key dialog box. (See
“Configuring Feature Key” on page 149 for more information.) You can choose
the following suboptions:
■ Enable FICON Management Server—Click the check box to display a
check mark and enable the FICON Management Server.
■ Parameters—Click this option to display the Configure FICON Management
Server dialog box. Use this dialog box to perform the following tasks:
— Allow or prohibit director clock alert mode.
— Allow or prohibit programmed offline state control.
— Choose a code page from the Code Page drop-down list.
For details, see “FICON Management Server” on page 194.
Features
This option displays the Configure Feature Key dialog box. Use this dialog box to
enter a feature key to enable optional features that you have purchased for the
director. (See “Configuring Feature Key” on page 149 for more information.)
Date and Time
Click this option to display the Configure Date and Time dialog box. Use this
option to set the current date and time in the director. When the Periodic
Date/Time Synchronization check box is checked, the Date and Time fields are
grayed out (disabled), and the HAFM appliance’s date and time periodically
synchronizes the director date and time. If the Periodic Date/Time
Synchronization check box is not checked, you can set the date and time in the
dialog box fields manually.
Threshold Alert(s)
Click this option to configure threshold alerts for ports. A threshold alert notifies
users when the transmit (Tx) or receive (Rx) throughput reaches specified values
for specific director ports or port types (E_Ports or F_Ports). Using this option,
you can configure:
■ A name for the alert.
■ A threshold type for the alert (Rx, Tx, or both).
