Opening QuickTools
After the switch is operational, start the QuickTools web applet by entering the
switch IP address in an Internet browser. If your workstation does not have the
Java 2 Run Time Environment program, you will be prompted to download it. The
Add a New Fabric dialog box (Figure 1-1) prompts you for your username and
password. Click Add Fabric to view the fabric.
Figure 1-1. Add a New Fabric Dialog Box
The opening window is displayed (Figure 1-3). For security reasons, you will be
prompted to change your user account password that was initially set up by the
administrator (Figure 1-2). You will be prompted to change the password each
time you attempt to view the fabric until you change the default password. Click
OK, and change the user account password. Refer to “Managing User Accounts”
on page 3-9 for more information.

QuickTools User Interface
The QuickTools web applet interface (Figure 1-3) consists of a menu bar, fabric
tree, graphic window, data windows (some with buttons), and data window tabs.
Information displayed on the data windows corresponds to the data window tab
selected. Data windows vary by the display type (faceplate and backplate).
While there is no topology display, the fabric name is displayed on the fabric tree
above the switch names as a reference. Click a switch name or icon on the fabric
tree to display a different switch faceplate or backplate on the graphic window
along with its corresponding data window.
The faceplate and backplate displays of the QLogic 5800V Series switches are
used to manage individual switches. The switch images on the faceplate displays
of the 5800V Series switches look identical and show the front of a single switch
and its ports. However, the switch images on the backplate displays of the 5800V
Series switches look different by reflecting the number of power supplies in the
switch. The QLogic 5800V switch has one power supply, and the QLogic 5802V
switch (Figure 1-3) has two power supplies.

The Alerts Panel shows all reasons for status, including faults. The Alerts Panel
entries are the highlighted rows between the faceplate image and the data
window entries.

NOTE:
The up/down arrows on the divider bar (between the Alerts Panel entries
and data windows) enable you to move the divider bar up or down. With the
faceplate image and data windows displayed, click the up arrow (on left) to
move the divider up to the top of the window, thus completely hiding the
faceplate image. Click the down arrow (on right) to move the divider back to
the middle; click the down arrow again to completely hide the data window.
You can also click-and-drag the divider bar to manually move it up or down.

Fabric Tree
The QuickTools web applet allows you to manage the switches in one fabric. The
fabric tree (Figure 1-3) provides access to each switch faceplate display in the
fabric. Click a switch name or icon to display that switch faceplate in the graphic
window. The window width of the fabric tree can be adjusted by clicking and
dragging the moveable window border.
The fabric tree entry has a small icon next to it that uses color to indicate
operational status.
A green icon indicates normal operation.
A yellow icon indicates that a switch is operational, but may require attention
to maintain maximum performance.
A red icon indicates a potential failure or non operational state as when the
switch is offline.
A blue icon indicates that a switch is unknown, unreachable, or
unmanageable.
If the status of the fabric is not normal, the fabric icon on the fabric tree will
indicate the reason for the abnormal status. The same message is provided when
you rest the mouse on the fabric icon on the fabric tree.
Graphic Window
The graphic window (Figure 1-3) shows the switch faceplate or backplate display.
The window height can be adjusted by clicking and dragging the window border
that it shares with the data window.
The faceplate display shows the front of a switch. To view the faceplate display, on
the View menu, click View Faceplate. The backplate display shows the back of
the switch. To view the backplate display, on the View menu, click View
Backplate.
Data Windows and Tabs
The data window (Figure 1-3) presents a table of data and statistics associated
with the selected tab for the switch displayed on the graphic window. Use the
scroll bar to browse through the data. The window length can be adjusted by
clicking and dragging the border that it shares with the graphic window. Adjust the
column width by moving the pointer over the column heading border shared by
two columns until a right/left arrow graphic is displayed. Click and drag the arrow
to the desired width. The data windows and tabs are described below.
Devices—displays information about devices (hosts and storage targets)
connected to the switch. Refer to “Devices Data Window” on page 2-19 for
more information.
