About Managing McDATA and EMC Connectrix Switches
Whenever you add, remove or replace McDATA or EMC Connectrix switches in an already
discovered service processor, you must make the management server aware of those changes. After
you add these switches to the service processor, you must perform Get Details/Discovery Data
Collection. The management server obtains information about the new switches from the service
processor. See the topic, ” Adding McDATA and EMC Connectrix Switches ” on page 103 for more
information about adding switches.
(Discovery from HP SE only)When you remove switches from the service processor, you must remove
them from the management server as well. See the topic, ” (Discovery from HP SE Only)Removing
McDATA and EMC Connectrix Switches ” on page 104 for more information about removing
switches. When you replace McDATA or EMC Connectrix switches, you add and remove the
switches as described previously. See the topic, ” (Discovery from HP SE Only)Swapping McDATA
and EMC Connectrix Switches ” on page 104 for more information.
