HP StorageWorks Data Center Fabric Manager Professional is a server based management application
available at no-charge and comes with B-series SAN Switches and includes the following features:
Allows management of a single Fabric OS (FOS) fabric (up to a 1,000 B-Series switch ports) at a
time
Performs group switch management beyond the scope of Web Tools
Does not offer management of the DC SAN Backbone Director
It is targeted for SMB customers that use FOS based SAN fabrics and require a management solution for
smaller SANs based on a single fabric.
SMB customers that initially start off with Data Center Fabric Manager Professional and have a small
SAN environment may over time feel the need for an enterprise-class product (Data Center Fabric
Manager Enterprise) as their environments start to grow in size and complexity, and as they start to
uptake more enterprise-class functionality (such as Fibre Channel Routing, FCIP, etc.). A non-disruptive
upgrade path is available from Data Center Fabric Manager Professional to Data Center Fabric
Manager Enterprise
HP StorageWorks Data Center Fabric Manager Enterprise is the enterprise-class product that supports
FOS products as well as FOS and M-EOS products together. It provides complete DC SAN Backbone
Director management including enterprise-class features/environments such as FICON, Fibre Channel
Routing, FCIP, adaptive networking, etc.
It delivers unprecedented scalability (up to 24 fabrics and 9,000 switch ports) compared to the existing
products.
It offers brand-new features including Adaptive Networking features for quality of service, ingress rate
limiting and traffic isolation zones.
Data Center Fabric Manager Enterprise requires at least one FOS based B-series SAN switch in the SAN.
While DCFM provides increased functionality, not all features available in FM or HAFM are available in
DCFM, and some functions may operate differently. Please refer to the Migration and Transition guide
for additional information.
Secure Fabric OS™ is a comprehensive security solution for SAN fabrics, providing policy-based security
protection for more predictable change management, assured configuration integrity and reduced risk of
downtime. Secure Fabric OS protects the network by using the strongest, enterprise-class security
methods available, including digital certificates and digital signatures, multiple levels of password
protection, strong password encryption and Public Key Infrastructure (PKI)-based authentication, and
128-bit encryption of the switch's private key used for digital signatures. With its flexible design, Secure
Fabric OS enables organizations to customize SAN security to meet specific policy requirements. In
addition, Secure Fabric OS works in conjunction with Advanced Zoning to further secure access to the
SAN, simplify storage management, and reduce provisioning time.
