FM Server loads a fabric information the first time a client opens a fabric
When the last client closes, FM Server closes the fabric, and any events
received from the switches will be ignored
For FM Server to not close the fabric information when the last client
disconnects from the server, mark “Manage Continuously” next to the
fabric in the Server Admin dialog
Prior to release 3.2 this was called “Monitor Continuously”
3.2 and above release provides three options
Unmanage: Stop managing the fabric
Manage: Keep fabric open as long as client is connected
Manage Continuously: Always keep the fabric information open

PostgreSQL DB—Restore
Prior to restoring FMS database, please stop the FM server
Contents of pgrestore.bat file under C:\Program Files\Cisco
Systems\MDS 9000\bin
set PGDIR=C:\Program Files\PostgreSQL\8.2
set DBNAME=dcmdb
set DBUSERNAME=admin
echo "You will delete all existing data and restore db with file %1%"
echo "Please stop FMServer before db restore"
set /p ans=Are you sure you want to continue? [Y/N]

1 Earlier releases called for “Use Device Aliases in place of FC Aliases”, with default check
mark, new install rewords the same option to “Use FC Aliases as Fabric default”, and the
option is unchecked by default.
Recommendation: Go with default option (Devices Aliases recommended)
2 FM 3.1 install, default admin password was set to password. With new install, no default
admin password is defined, administrator configures password as part of install.

Syslog messages
Every release of MDS SAN-OS publishes the Syslog messages supported by that
release, every effort is made to keep the Syslog messages backward compatible
Syslog messages can be forwarded from MDS to any application that can parse
the messages and populate a monitoring application

Historic Performance—Flows (3 of 4)
Flow Performance Collection is a two-step
process, and need to be configured from the
FM Client; flow configuration setup has to be
repeated for each VSAN
The option “Type” refers to the collection
process; recommend that flows are collected
both ways; FMS server is smart to
consolidate the data at the time of reporting
Checking the “Clear old flows on modified
switches” option purges all old data related to
the FCID; please select this option with
careful consideration; once selected, no way
to restore lost the data
The option “Create flows on all cards,” gives
flexibility for physical port to be moved to
another module on the same switch; this
option available on SAN-OS 3.1 and later
