Managing switch feature upgrades

The HP StorageWorks 8/20q 4-port Upgrade License enables additional Fibre Channel (FC) ports in four
port increments up to the 20-port maximum. Installing a feature license key is not disruptive, nor does it
require a switch reset. To order a license key, contact your switch distributor or your authorized reseller.
TIP: To obtain the switch serial number and license key, follow the step-by-step instructions on the firmware
feature entitlement request certificate for the license key.
