Opening the Default Fabric View File

The default fabric view file enables you to conveniently open a fabric view without having to re-enter the fabric name, IP address, login name, and password (in the Add a New Fabric dialog) when starting a SANbox Manager session.

 

When exiting your first SANbox Manager session, you will be prompted to enter a password for the default fabric view file. After you enter a password, the password is encrypted and saved with the default fabric view file on your workstation. When exiting future SANbox Manager sessions, the password is automatically encrypted and saved with default fabric view file without being prompted.

 

Load Default Fabric File

 

To open the saved default fabric view file, do the following:

 

1. Open the SANbox Manager application.

2. In the Default File Password field, enter the password you entered when you last saved the default fabric view file.

3. Click the Load View File button. The default fabric view file opens in the topology display.
