General Information
• Open Systems. Click this radio button for (non-FICON) Fibre
channel environments.
• FICON. Typically, select this radio button when attaching an
IBM S/390 Parallel Enterprise or zSeries server to the switch
and implementing inband director management through a
Fibre Connection (FICON) channel. If switch firmware level is
below 6.0 and the FICON Management Server feature is
enabled, the default management style will be FICON. The
management style cannot be changed to Open Systems with
the FICON Management Server feature enabled.
NOTE: If firmware versions below 6.0 are installed on the switch, you need
to take the switch offline before changing the management style.

row, or port bar graph in those views.
