Viewing existing CIMOM servers
Port commissioning is only supported on FICON devices running Fabric OS 7.1 or later.
Before you can decommission or recommission an F-Port, you must register the CIMOM servers within the fabric
affected by the action. For more information, refer to “Registering a CIMOM server” on page 5.
1. Select Configure > Port Commissioning > Setup.
The Port Commissioning Setup dialog box displays (Figure 1).
The Port Commissioning Setup dialog box has two main areas. The Add/Edit Systems and Credentials area
enables you to register CIMOM servers (system and credentials) one at a time and contains the following fields
and components:
• Network Address — Enter the IP address (IPv4 or Ipv6 format) or host name of the CIMOM server in the field.
• Description — (Optional) Enter a description of the CIMOM server in the field. The description cannot be over
1024 characters.
• CIMOM Port — Enter the CIMOM port number for the CIMOM server in the field. The default port number is
5989.
• Namespace — Enter the namespace of the CIM_FCPort in the field. The default namespace is root/cimv2.
• Credentials - User ID (Optional) — Enter a user identifier for the CIMOM server in the field. The credentials
user identifier cannot be over 128 characters.
• Credentials - Password (Optional) — Enter a password in the field. The password cannot be over 512

• Left arrow button — Select a CIMOM server in the Systems List and click to move the defined CIMOM server
credentials to the Add/Edit Systems and Credentials area for editing or deletion.
• Right arrow button — Click to move the defined CIMOM server credentials form the Add/Edit Systems and

The Systems List details the defined CIMOM server and contains the following data:
• Network Address — The IP address (IPv4 or Ipv6 format) or host name of the system.
• Description — User-defined description of the system.
• CIMOM Port — The CIMOM port number of the system.
• Namespace — The namespace of the CIM_FCPort.
• User ID — The user identifier for the system.
• Status — The system connectivity status. Updates when you test the reachability of the CIMOM server and
when you contact the CIMOM server to respond to the F-Port decommission or recommission request. Valid
status options include:
OK — CIMOM server contact successful with current credentials.
Not Contacted Yet — CIMOM servers configured, connectivity not tested yet.
Credentials Updated — Credentials changed, connectivity not tested yet.
Credentials Failed — CIMOM server contact failed with current credentials.
Not Reachable — CIMOM server not reachable.
