Stopping and restarting the Fabric Manager services causes clients connected to the server to lose
connection, and they must re-log in to the server.
The screen does not automatically refresh; you must click Refresh Status every time you want to
refresh the screen.
To monitor and manage Fabric Manager Services
1. Launch the Server Management Console.
2. Click the Services tab.
The pane displays information about all of the Fabric Manager services, as shown in Figure 24-1.
3. Click Stop Services to stop all of the services.
Click Restart Services to stop and then restart the services.
Click Start Services to start the services. This button is activated only if the FM Services are
already stopped. If the Fabric Manager server is configured to use the external FTP server, the
Server Management Console does not attempt to start Fabric Manager’s built-in FTP service.
Click Refresh Status to update the table with the latest status of the services in case the services
were stopped or restarted outside of the Server Management Console.
Changing Authentication Information
The Authentication tab of the Server Management Console displays the current authentication
