104 Configuring the Library for Fibre Channel Chapter 3
7. P ress [OK] when complete to save the changes, or select [QUIT] to return to
the beginning of the fibre configuration menu. If you select
[QUIT], a
message will display indicating the old values will be retained.
If you select [OK], a message will display indicating that the settings are
being stored onto the Fibre Channel controller. If this is successful, a
message displays indicating that the new settings will be attempted at the
next restart.
8. To immediately apply the new settings, select [RESTART], or select [DONE] to
wait until the next power cycle.
When the Fibre Channel controller is restarted, or when the library is
power-cycled,
FUTURE SETTINGS are copied into CURRENT SETTINGS. The
Fibre Channel controller always attempts to connect using
CURRENT
SETTINGS
.
If you select [RESTART], the Fibre Channel controller is restarted. This should
not be attempted if data transfers or library operations are in progress.
The
[RESTART] operation normally completes within 90 seconds. The
display will report the status of the operation when it is complete.
Note The actual connection achieved depends on the external
topology and network. Consequently,
CURRENT STATUS may
differ from CURRENT SETTINGS.
Note You can also change configuration from remote access. See
Using the Remote Management Card on page 96.
