IBM Flex System V7000 Storage Node Introduction and Implementation Guide
Fibre Channel
Fibre Channel is used to display the FC-paths and their status. This is the Fibre Channel 
paths over the SAN and only relates to the storage nodes.
When you click Fibre Channel (Figure 5-65), some useful information is displayed about 
Fibre Channel connectivity. In this example, we review connectivity for all nodes, storage 
systems and hosts. Views can be filtered to display details for all devices, systems, nodes, 
storage systems, and hosts.
Figure 5-65   Fibre Channel window
5.9.4  Support menu
The Support menu is mainly used when log files are requested by IBM Support. IBM Support 
often requests log files when a support case is opened by IBM Flex System V7000 Storage 
Node administrators. The overall process is that the system administrator download the 
requested support package from the system and then upload it to IBM Support where after 
the data can be analyzed.
Clicking Support opens the window shown in Figure 5-66 on page 235. From this window, 
click Show full log listing to show all the log files.
