• To manage a fabric of Sun StorEdge and/or QLogic switches, every switch in the fabric must be
included in the discovery list. If a switch is not included in the discovery list, it may show up as a
generic host system.
• No ports are reported for uninstalled blades or GBICs.
• The default SNMP trap listener port for all Sun StorEdge switches is 162. To change this port,
see ” Changing the SNMP Trap Listener Port for Sun StorEdge Switches ” on page 40.
• To receive events from Sun StorEdge switches, verify the SNMP trap community string is set to
public in SANbox Manager or via telnet. Also, make sure the SNMP traps are configured to be
sent to the management server. See ” About Event Manager ” on page 409 for more information.
Keep in mind the following for QLogic SMI-S switches:
• A user name and password are required to discover any SMI-S switch.
• You must perform Get Details or Discovery Data Collection to obtain all available information
from QLogic SMI-S switches—otherwise, attributes such as vendor, fabric, and port information
will be missing for the QLogic SMI-S switches.
