intended as a quick reference for using features available through the main
Product Manager window.

21 Director Product Manager User Guide
Product Manager Overview
Managing the StorageWorks Director 2/64 and
Director 2/140
Three options are available for managing the director through a user interface:
■ The Product Manager application installed on a StorageWorks High
Availability Fabric Manager (HAFM) server. Access to the Product Manager
must be through the HAFM. The HAFM and Product Manager applications
are installed on the HAFM server. The Product Manager application installs
automatically with the HAFM on remote workstations using any standard web
browser. For instructions, refer to the appropriate appendix that pertains to the
operating system for your workstation in the HP StorageWorks HA-Fabric
Manager User Guide .
■ The Embedded Web Server (EWS) interface. Using a browser-capable PC
with an internet connection to the director, you can monitor and manage the
director through the web server interface. The interface provides a GUI
similar to the Product Manager application, and supports director
configuration, statistics monitoring, and basic operation. (The online help
provides information regarding zoning, zone sets, and SAN management.)
To launch the web server interface, enter the director’s IP address as the
internet uniform resource locator (URL) into any standard browser. Enter a
user name and password at the HAFM Login dialog box. The browser then
becomes a management console. Refer to the web server interface online help
for details on use. Refer to the HP StorageWorks Embedded Web Server User
Guide for more details on the Embedded Web Server.
Note: The default user name for the right to view status and other information is
“operator.” The default user name for the right to modify configuration data,
perform maintenance tasks, or perform other options is “administrator.” The default
password for both user names is “password.”
■ The command line interface (CLI). The CLI allows you to access many
HAFM and Product Manager functions while entering commands during a
telnet session with the director. The primary purpose of the CLI is to automate
management of a large number of directors using scripts. The CLI is not an
interactive interface; no checking is done for pre-existing conditions and no
prompts display to guide users through tasks. Refer to the HP StorageWorks
CLI Reference Guide for Directors and Edge Switches .

menu bar in the applications. References are provided to the correct publication
for detailed information on these options.

Product Manager Description
The Product Manager for the HP StorageWorks Director 2/64 and Director 2/140
has a Java-based graphical user interface (GUI) that provides in-depth
management, configuration, and monitoring functions for individual directors and
their field-replaceable units (FRUs).
In contrast to the Product Manager, the HAFM enables administrators to monitor
operational status for all products and Fibre Channel fabrics managed by an
HAFM server. The HAFM application also provides tools to administer user and
product access to the HAFM application and Product Manager.
The Product Manager provides graphical views of director hardware components
and displays of component status. By positioning the cursor on icons, graphics,
panels, and other visual elements in these views and clicking the left or right
mouse button, you can quickly manage and monitor the director on your network.
Using the Product Manager, you can:
■ Back up and restore configuration data.
■ Clear the system error indicator.
Product Manager Overview
■ Configure extended distance buffering for ports.
■ Configure Fibre Channel operating parameters for the director such as
BB_Credit, R_A_TOV, E_D_TOV, preferred domain ID, insistent domain ID,
domain RSCNs, switch priority, director speed (Director 2/64 only), and
rerouting delay.
■ Configure individual ports with a port name describing the node attached to
the port.
■ Configure LIN alerts.
■ Configure interoperability mode for multiswitch fabrics.
■ Configure a nickname to display instead of WWN for the director and for
attached node devices.
■ Configure port binding.
■ Configure port address configurations (FICON Management Style only).
■ Configure the FICON and Open Systems Management Server features if
installed.
■ Configure Switch Binding if optional SANtegrity Binding feature is installed.
■ Configure Open Trunking if optional Open Trunking feature is installed.
