3–Fabric Manager Configuration
Configuring the QLogic Fabric Manager
-->
The MeshTorusTopology section describes the interswitch links which compose
the topology of the fabric. All ISLs in the fabric which have not been configured in
this section will be considered invalid and ignored when the dor-updown
algorithm is selected as the routing algorithm.
In a Mesh/Torus topology the dimensions are defined by the ISLs between
specific switch port numbers. In this Fabric Manager Configuration example, the
First Dimension (X) uses connections between port 1 and port 2 of each switch
and the Second Dimension (Y) uses connections between port 3 and port 4 of
each switch (refer to Figure 3-1). If there is more than 1 ISL between switches in a
single dimension, additional PortPair attributes can be listed for the Dimension.
