Fabric name identifier keeps incrementing

ed.loch · ‎03-19-2008

I am running Fabric Manager 3.1(2) to manage a pair of MDS 9509s. Every time I start the application, it discovers the fabric and gives it a new name with the next highest number than it used the last time. e.g., if it was called Fabric 2 last time I ran it, on the next startup of the application, it calls it Fabric 3. It really doesn't hurt anything, but there doesn't seem to be a point to it and it seems like it shouldn't happen.

Thanks.

Thank you for your reply. I looked at these and I don't see anything that seems to address this issue. It's possible that I'm missing something. Could you direct me specifically to what you're referring to?

Thanks
