Installing and activating Port Upgrade licenses Use the portshow command to verify the number of ports licensed on your switch. The port status output indicates Started and Licensed for enabled ports. See the Fabric OS command reference manual for specific information on this command. Obtain the WWN from the Switch ID pull-out tab located on the port side of your switch.
SAN Switch ISL Trunking groups All 8Gb SAN Switch models support Inter-Switch Link (ISL) Trunking as an optional, licensed feature. When this feature is enabled, create trunked groups of up to eight contiguous ports. For example, the Fibre Channel ports on the SAN Switch are numbered from left to right and color-coded into groups of eight to indicate which ports you can combine into trunked groups.

To install the device in a rack: Verify that the required parts and hardware are available. See Table Choose a mounting location for the device in the rack. Attach the rear mounting brackets to the rear rack uprights: • For HP 10000 series racks, assemble each of the two brackets with two #10-32 x 1/2-inch Phillips pan-head screws with captive star lock-washers and two #10 adapter washers, as shown in Figure...
Assemble the outer rails: a. Attach the left outer rail and the right outer rail to the rear mounting brackets, using two 1/4-20 hex nuts with captive star lock-washers attached loosely, as shown in Figure 10. Do not tighten the nuts. Figure 10 Installing the outer rails (HP 10000 series racks) b.
• For an HP System/e Rack, install two #10-32 x 1/2-inch Phillips pan-head screws with captive star lock-washers and two #10 alignment washers in upper and lower hole locations of the right rail. Then install two #10-32 x 1/2-inch Phillips pan-head screws with captive star lock-washers and two #10 alignment washers in the upper and lower hole locations of the left rail.
Identify the appropriate screw holes to install the inner rails to your specific device: a. To attach the inner rails to the SAN Switch 2/16, SAN Switch 2/8V, or SAN Switch 2/16V, use the screw holes marked 8. b. To attach the inner rails to the SAN Switch 2/32, use the screw holes marked 32. To attach the inner rails to the 4/8, 4/16, 8/8, or 8/24 SAN Switches, use the five screw holes marked 8.

Cabling and configuring the SAN Switch The SAN Switch must be configured to ensure correct operation with a network and fabric. For instructions on configuring the switch to operate in a fabric containing switches from other vendors, see the HP StorageWorks Fabric OS administrator guide. For more information about the commands used in this procedure, see the Fabric OS command reference manual for the Fabric OS version running on your switch.
Power on the 8Gb SAN Switch The 8/8 and 8/24 SAN Switches use one power cord. The 8/40 and 8/80 SAN Switches use two power cords. To power on: IMPORTANT: The 8/8 and 8/24 SAN Switches do not have an on/off switch. Power is supplied as soon as you connect it to an AC power source.

Power on the switch Once a serial connection is established, power on the switch: Connect the power cord to a power inlet on the switch and to a power source. NOTE: The 8/8 and 8/24 SAN Switches use one power cord. The 8/40 and 8/80 SAN Switches use two power cords.
Type off to disable DHCP when prompted. DHCP [OFF]: off Optional: Verify that the address is correct by issuing the ipaddrshow command at the prompt. Record the IP address on the label located on the port side of the chassis. Record the IP address on the pull-out tab on the port side of the switch.
• By default, all switches are in the GMT time zone (0,0). If all switches in a fabric are in one time zone, it is possible for you to keep the time zone setup at the default setting. • System services that have already started will reflect the time zone changes only after the next reboot.
Enter the tsClockServer command: switch:admin> tsClockServer “<ntp1;ntp2>” where ntp1 is the IP address or DNS name of the first NTP server, which the switch must be able to access. The second ntp2 is the second NTP server and is optional. The operand “<ntp1;ntp2>” is optional;...

Verifying fan assembly FRU replacement To determine if a fan assembly requires replacing, do any of the following: • Check the system status LED. If the system status LED is flashing amber and green, it could mean the fan has failed. The green power supply/fan LED will also flash in the event of failure. Check the management interface and the error log for details on the cause of status.
Install the new fan assembly in the chassis: a. Orient the new fan assembly as shown in Figure 26, with the captive screw on the right. b. Gently push the fan assembly into the chassis until it is firmly in. CAUTION: Do not force the installation.
Replacing an 8/80 SAN Switch power supply CAUTION: If a power supply fails, leave the power supply in the switch until it can be replaced. Maintain both power supplies in operational condition to provide redundancy. Replacing a power supply takes approximately two minutes. You will need: •...
