Task 11: Configure Feature Key (Optional)

Perform this task to display or install operating features that are available as
customer-specified options. Available features include:
• OSMS - Open systems management server. This feature allows open systems host
control of the switch.
• SANtegrity - This feature enhances security in SANs that contain a large and
mixed group of fabrics and attached devices.
• Flexport - A Flexport switch is delivered at a discount with a subset of available
ports enabled. When additional port capacity is required, the remaining ports are
enabled (in eight-port increments) through purchase of this feature.
NOTE: This Flexport key enables additional port function. The factory default settings enable 8
of the 24 ports, and this feature key enables additional ports. Until this feature is enabled the
additional ports will display as Not Installed in the Port Operational State window of the
Hardware View and Port List Views. See hp StorageWorks edge switch 2/24 flexport upgrade
instruction for information on configuring this feature key and on upgrading the number of ports.
Features are enabled through a feature key that is encoded to work with the serial
number of a unique switch. A feature key is a case-sensitive alphanumeric string with
dashes every four characters.
To configure a feature key:
1. Ensure the switch is set offline.
2. At the Hardware View for the selected switch, choose Configure > Features.
The Configure Feature Key dialog box displays, as shown in
