Operating the Core Switch 2/64
System Components
The HP StorageWorks Core Switch 2/64 can contain up to two logical switches,
each with its own configuration: one for any 16-port cards in slots 1-4 and one for
any 16-port cards in slots 7-10. The 16-port cards can be installed in any
combination of slots 1-4 ("switch 0") and 7-10 ("switch 1"), with one exception:
if there are one or more 16-port cards in slots 7-10, there must be at least one
16-port card in slots 1-4.
The active CP card controls both logical switches.
Each 16-port card provides 16 auto-sensing Fibre Channel ports, capable of
auto-sensing data transmission speeds of 1 and 2 Gbps.
The ports on each of the 16-port cards are color-coded to indicate which ports can
be used in the same ISL Trunking group: four ports marked with black solid ovals
alternate with four ports marked with oval outlines.
16-Port Card LEDs
The 16-Port card includes a power LED and a status LED. In addition, each of the
16 ports has two LEDs to the left of the port, a port status LED and a port speed
LED. See
Note:
tests.
