Enclosure settings
Selecting enclosures
The primary interlink ports are displayed in the rack topology table. The primary enclosure is selected by
default, and cannot be deselected.
When linked enclosures are displayed, the topology mode that the application uses during your session is
determined by the checkbox selections made before signing in, as described below:
• Local Mode—This is the default topology mode, and is enabled if none of the linked enclosures are
selected. All topology changes that occur while signed in are ignored by the application.
• Fixed Mode—This topology mode is enabled when some of the linked enclosures are selected, but not
all of them. Only topology changes that affect the selected enclosures while signed in are displayed by
the application.
• Linked Mode—This topology mode is enabled if all displayed enclosures are selected. All topology
changes that occur while signed in are displayed by the application.
