3–Fabric Manager Configuration
Configuring the QLogic Fabric Manager
Unlike other Shared section parameters, the Start parameter is specially
handled. The Start parameter may be used in the Fm.Shared section or any
Sm, Fe, Pm, or Bm section (in Common or Fm). However, it can not be used in the
Common.Shared section and will be ignored if it is used there. In order for a given
FM Instance to be started, the Fm.Shared section must have a Start section
parameter with a value of 1. Within a given FM Instance, only the managers
whose Start section parameters are also 1 (they default to 1) will be started. For
example:
1
1
1
0
1
0
The above example, will start the Sm, Fe and Pm for the first FM Instance, but it
will not start the Bm. The second FM Instance will not be started at all.
