A fabric view file is one or more fabrics saved to a file. To open an existing view 
file, do the following:

1.

Open the File menu and select Open View File, or click the Open button. If 
the fabric you are currently viewing has changed, you will be prompted to 
save the changes to the fabric view file with the Save View dialog before 
opening a different view file. 

2.

In the Open View dialog, enter the name of the file to open, and enter a file 
password, if a password was entered when this fabric view file was saved. 

3.

Click the OK button. 

To save a fabric view file, do the following:

1.

Open the File menu, and select Save View As.

2.

In the Save View dialog, enter a new file name.

3.

Enter a file password, if necessary. 

4.

Click the OK button.

After making changes to or deleting switches from a fabric view, it may be helpful 
to again view the actual fabric configuration. The rediscover fabric option clears 
out the current fabric information being displayed, and rediscovers all switch 
information. To rediscover a fabric, open the Fabric menu, and select Rediscover 
Fabric. The rediscover function is more comprehensive than the refresh function.
