SAN Switch 2/8V, 2/16V and 2/16N Installation Guide |
Overview |
1 |
|
The SAN Switch 2/8V, SAN Switch 2/16V and SAN Switch 2/16N are Fibre Channel Gigabit switches that support link speeds up to 2 Gb/sec. They can operate in a fabric containing multiple switches or as the only switch in a fabric.
The SAN Switch 2/16N is identical to the 2/16V; however, the SAN Switch 2/16N includes a full-fabric license.
Note: Unless otherwise noted, functionality and features for the 2/16V are applicable to the 2/16N throughout this guide.
This chapter provides the following information:

Overview
SAN Switch 2/8V, 2/16V and 2/16N Features
The SAN Switch 2/8V, 2/16V and 2/16N provide the following features:
■Air-cooled 1U chassis. The chassis can be installed as a stand-alone unit or mounted in a standard Electronic Industries Association (EIA) 19 in. (48.26 cm) cabinet.
■8 or 16 Fibre Channel ports, with the following characteristics:
—Automatic negotiation to the highest common speed of all devices connected to port.
—Port interfaces compatible with small form factor pluggable (SFP) transceivers, both short wavelength (SWL) and long wavelength (LWL).
—Universal and self-configuring ports: capable of becoming an F_Port (fabric enabled), FL_Port (fabric loop enabled), or E_Port (expansion port).
■8 or 16 short wavelength SFP transceivers (optional).
■One RS-232 serial port, designed to connect to a DTE port.
■One 10/100 Mb/sec Ethernet port with an RJ-45 connector.
■One (SAN Switch 2/8V) or two (SAN Switch 2/16V) built-in power supplies.
■The following light-emitting diodes (LEDs):
—Power status
—System status
—Ethernet status
—Port status and port speed for each port
SAN Switch 2/8V and 2/16 Switches Comparison
The basic difference between the SAN Switch 2/8V and the SAN Switch 2/16V is the number of ports: the SAN Switch 2/8V contains 8 ports, while the SAN Switch 2/16V contains 16. The SAN Switch 2/8V contains only 1 power supply while the SAN Switch 2/16V has built-in redundancy and contains 2 power supplies; thus, the SAN Switch 2/16V also weighs more.
The SAN Switch 2/16V can operate indefinitely on either one of its power supplies.

Overview
SAN Switch Licensing
The SAN Switch 2/8V, 2/16V and 2/16N are switches based on existing HP product lines but with limits placed on the number of domains that can be used.
■The SAN Switch 2/8V comes configured from the factory with a 2-domain fabric license. Customers can purchase a full-fabric license.
■The SAN Switch 2/16V comes configured from the factory with a 2-domain fabric license. Customers can purchase a 4-domain fabric license or a full-fabric license.
■The SAN Switch 2/16N comes configured from the factory with a full-fabric license.
The SAN Switch 2/8V and 2/16V products can be upgraded by purchasing an optional license; refer to the HP StorageWorks Fabric OS Procedures 4.2x User Guide to learn how to upgrade a license.
To determine the type of licensing your SAN Switch 2/8V or SAN Switch 2/16V run, use use the licenseshow command.

Overview
Switch Characteristics
The next few sections describe the physical characteristics of the SAN Switch 2/8V, 2/16V and 2/16N and some important requirements for proper operation.
Port Side
You can see the physical differences between the SAN Switch 2/8V and the SAN Switch 2/16V switches in the following figures. The most noticeable difference is the number of ports. Figure 1 shows the port side of the SAN Switch 2/8V, and Figure 2 shows the port side of the SAN Switch 2/16V.
All LEDs are on the port side of the switch: the nonport side is used for serial number labeling and to allow the free flow of air. The SAN Switch enclosures have forced-air cooling, with the fans pushing the air from the nonport side of the chassis through the enclosure, and exhausting to the port side.
A complete description of the locations and interpretations of these LEDs can be found at “Interpreting LED Activity” on page 59.

Overview
ISL Trunking Groups
If your SAN Switch 2/8V, 2/16V and 2/16N switch is licensed for ISL trunking, use the trunking groups available on the switch.
The Fibre Channel ports are numbered from left to right, color-coded into groups of four to indicate the groups of ports that can be used in the same interswitch link (ISL) trunking group. The trunking groups are the two or four sets of four ports at the top or at the bottom of the group, as shown in Figure 3.

SAN Switch 2/8V, 2/16V and 2/16N Installation Guide |
Installing the SAN Switch
Installation and Safety Considerations
You can install the SAN Switch 2/8V or 2/16V using one of the following methods:
1.As a stand-alone unit on a flat surface.
2.In an Electronic Industries Association (EIA) cabinet using a sliding rail rack mount kit, which is provided with the switch.
Electrical Considerations
For successful installation and operation of the switch, ensure that the following electrical requirements are met. For power supply information, refer to “Technical Specifications” on page 87.
■Primary AC input 100-240 VAC (switch auto-senses input voltage), 47-63 Hz.
■Correctly wired primary outlet, with circuit protected by a circuit breaker and grounded in accordance with local electrical codes.
■Adequate supply circuit, line fusing, and wire size, as specified by the electrical rating on the switch nameplate.
Environmental Considerations
■At a minimum, adequate cooling requires that you install the switch with the non-port side, which contains the air intake vents, facing the cool-air aisle.
■Verify that a minimum of 24 cubic ft./minute of air flow is available to the air intake vents on the nonport side of the switch.
■Verify that the ambient air temperature does not exceed 40° C (104° F) while the switch is operating.
■If installing the switch in a cabinet:
—The cabinet must be a standard EIA cabinet.
—Plan a cabinet space that is 1 rack unit (1.75 inches; 4.45 cm) high, 19 inches (48.3 cm) wide, and at least 30 inches (76.2 cm) deep.
—Ground all equipment in cabinet through a reliable branch circuit connection and maintain ground at all times. Do not rely on a secondary connection to a branch circuit, such as a power strip.
SAN Switch 2/8V, 2/16V and 2/16N Installation Guide |
29 |
Installing the SAN Switch
—Ensure that airflow and temperature requirements are met on an ongoing basis, particularly if the switch is installed in a closed or multicabinet assembly.
—Verify that the additional weight of the switch does not exceed the cabinet’s weight limits or unbalance the cabinet in any way.
—Secure the cabinet to ensure stability in case of unexpected movement, such as an earthquake.
