Login re-distribution
When creating or editing a SAN fabric using HP VC FlexFabric 10Gb/24-port Modules, select an uplink
port that is present on the FlexFabric module, and then select the Show Advanced Settings checkbox to select
the login re-distribution:
• Manual Login Re-Distribution—Default for all FC modules. You must initiate a Login Re-Distribution
request through the VC GUI or CLI interfaces. You might re-distribute logins if an uplink that was
previously down is now available, if you added an uplink to a fabric, or if the number of logins through
each available uplink has become unbalanced for any reason.
• Automatic Login Re-Distribution—When selected, the VC FlexFabric module initiates Login
Re-Distribution automatically when the specified time interval expires. For more information about
setting the time interval, see "Fibre Channel Settings (Misc.) screen (on page 120 )."
The automatic option is only available on FlexFabric modules and enables you to specify an interval, in
seconds, for the length of time the previously offline links must be stable before the module can re-distribute
logins.
