ServerNet II Switch
The component of the 6770 switch module that provides routing for the cluster over an external ServerNet fabric. The
ServerNet II switch connects to the nodes through fiber-optic cables that connect to plug-in cards (PICs) located on
modular ServerNet expansion boards (MSEBs) on each node.
Location in OSM tree: External ServerNet Fabric > Switch Group > Switch Module > Switch
Example: Switch $ZZSMN.Y1
Attributes
Switch
Displayed in the Attributes tab and Attributes dialog box only if the value is something
other than OK. Values
Service State
Logical
A unique, read-only number stored in nonvolatile memory (SEEPROM) on a ServerNet
II switch.The Globally Unique ID can be used programmatically to identify the switch.
GUID
Whether a switch is configured for operation on the X fabric or the Y fabric.
Values: X, Y, or Clear
Fabric Setting
Firmware
The version of the firmware currently loaded on the switch. The attribute value
includes the VPROC string with the firmware version in parentheses.You can also
obtain this value from SCF.
Example: T0569G06^06MAY02^FMW^AAF (3_0_82)
Version
The name of the file to be used for a firmware update.Default File Name
The version of the firmware to be used for a firmware update.Default File Version
The differences, if any, between the current and default firmware versions. ValuesCompare State
Configuration
A parameter used by SCF and the guided procedures that allows SANMAN to select
an appropriate switch configuration block (SCB) from the M6770CL switch
configuration library. The selected SCB is subsequently loaded on the specified
switch.The configuration tag determines the position of the cluster switch in the
topology and the ServerNet node numbers supported by the cluster switch. Values
Example: Max 24 nodes, nodes 17-24
Configuration Tag
The version of the configuration currently loaded on the switch.The attribute value
includes the VPROC string with the configuration version in parentheses.You can
also obtain this value from SCF.
Example: T0569G06^02Jul01^CL4^AAE (2_5)
Version
The full path name of the default configuration file M6770CL.Default File Name
A number that indicates the position that the switch occupies in a network topology.
The Position ID is a component of the switch name. For example, the switch name
X3 indicates that the switch serves the external ServerNet X fabric and occupies
position 3 in the topology.
Position ID
The version of firmware in the default configuration file M6770CL.Default File Version
The differences, if any, between the current and default configuration versions. ValuesCompare State
Actions
Blink LED Off
Turns off the blinking of the LED.
SCF Equivalent: SCF ALTER SWITCH $ZZSMN, NEAREST { X | Y}, BLINK NONE
