McDATA® Sphereon 3032 and 3232 Fabric Switches Installation and Service Manual
General Information
IPL
Select this option to initiate an initial program load on the switch.
A dialog box displays to allow you to confirm the IPL. Note that
an IPL does not affect any configuration settings done through
the Element Manager. This operation does not disrupt port
operation.
Set Online State
Select this option to display the Set Online State dialog box. Use
this dialog box to change the online state of the switch to offline
or online.
Firmware Library
Select this option to display the Firmware Library dialog box. This
dialog box displays all firmware versions currently installed on
the Management Server that can be downloaded to switches. Use
this dialog box to add a new firmware version to the
Management Server hard disk, modify the description displayed
for an existing version, delete a version from the PC, or download
(send) a version for operation on a switch.
Enable E-Mail Notification
The Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) server and e-mail
recipient addresses are configured in your SAN management
application (not in the switch Element Manager). E-mail
notification is also initially enabled in your SAN management
application for all switches managed by your SAN management
application. Note, however, that the E-Mail Notification option on
the Element Manager Maintenance menu must be enabled
(checked) for e-mail notification to occur for the specific switch.
The default setting for the Enable E-Mail Notification function is
enabled (checked). To disable the function, select Enable E-Mail
Notification from the Maintenance menu to clear the check box.
Enable Call Home Notification
NOTE: The default setting for the Enable Call Home Notification feature is
disabled (unchecked).
Select Enable Call Home Notification from the Maintenance menu to
enable the call home notification feature for the switch.
