Director description

The director is a second-generation, 140-port product that provides dynamic switched connections between Fibre Channel servers and devices in a SAN environment. Directors are managed and controlled through an High Availability Fabric Manager (HAFM) appliance with HAFM and Director 2/140 Element Manager installed. The HAFM appliance is a 1U rack-mount appliance that provides a central point of control for up to 48 directors and/or edge switches.

Multiple directors and the HAFM appliance communicate through the customer’s local area network (LAN).

Features

Features of the Director 2/140 include:

• Scalable from 32 to 140 user ports

• 100% dynamic non-blocking, cut through switching with congestion queuing

• Online error detection, error isolation, and error recovery

• Redundant, hot-pluggable components

• Full duplex 200 MB/sec per port performance

• Less than 2-μs average switch latency

• 100-km distance support (60 buffers), with use of repeaters

• Small form factor, hot-pluggable optical transceivers, auto configure G_ports

• Combination short-wave or long-wave laser transceivers

• Redundant power supplies and fan modules

• Online product repair for Field Replaceable Units (FRUs)

• Periodic health check and enhanced system monitoring

• Non-disruptive firmware load and update

Director management

The director is managed and controlled through:

Director 2/140 installation guide 13

• The HAFM application. This graphical user interface (GUI) resides on the HAFM appliance and

provides a single point of management for all directors, and a launching point for the Director 2/140 Element Manager.

• Simple network management protocol (SNMP). A SNMP agent is implemented through the

HAFM application that allows administrators on SNMP management workstations to access director management information using any standard network management tool. Administrators can assign internet protocol (IP) addresses and corresponding community names for up to 12 SNMP workstations functioning as SNMP trap message recipients. Refer to the HP StorageWorks SNMP reference guide for directors and edge switches for more information.

• The Internet using the Embedded Web Server (EWS) interface installed on the director. This

interface supports configuration, statistics monitoring, and basic operation of the director, but does not offer all the capabilities of the Director 2/140 Element Manager. Administrators launch the EWS interface from a remote PC by entering the director’s IP address as the internet URL, then entering a user name and password at a login screen. The PC browser then becomes a management console.

NOTE: The default user name for the right to view status and other information is operator. The

default user name for the right to modify configuration data, perform maintenance tasks, or perform other options is Administrator. The default password for both user names is password.

• The command line interface (CLI). The CLI allows you to access many HAFM and Element

Manager functions while entering commands during a telnet session with the director. The primary purpose of the CLI is to automate management of a large number of directors using scripts. The CLI is not an interactive interface; no checking is done for pre-existing conditions and no prompts display to guide users through tasks. Refer to the HP StorageWorks CLI reference guide for directors and edge switches for more information.

• A customer-supplied PC or UNIX-based platform with the HAFM appliance and client HAFM

and Director Element Manager installed.

• A customer-supplied remote workstation communicating with the HAFM appliance through a

corporate intranet.

• A customer-supplied PC platform with a network connection to the EWS interface installed on the

director.

• A customer-supplied server platform communicating with the switch through a LAN or corporate

intranet. The HAFM applications are ordered and installed on the server by the customer.

Error-detection, reporting, and serviceability

The director provides the following error-detection, reporting, and serviceability features:

• Light-emitting diodes (LEDs) on director FRUs and the front bezel that provide visual indicators of

hardware status or malfunctions.

• System and threshold alerts, event logs, audit logs, link incident logs, threshold alert logs, and

hardware logs that display director, Ethernet link, and Fibre Channel link status at the HAFM appliance, remote workstation, or EWS.

Overview14

• Diagnostic software that performs power-on self-tests (POSTs) and port diagnostics (internal

loopback, external loopback, and Fibre Channel (FC) wrap tests). The FC wrap test applies only when the director is configured to operate in FICON management style.

• An internal modem for use by support personnel to dial in to the HAFM appliance for event

notification and to perform remote diagnostics.

• Automatic notification of significant system events (to support personnel or administrators)

through e-mail messages or the call-home feature at the HAFM appliance.

NOTE: The call-home feature is not available through the EWS interface.

• An RS-232 maintenance port at the rear of the director (port access is password-protected) that

enables installation or service personnel to change the director’s internet protocol (IP) address, subnet mask, and gateway address.

• Redundant FRUs—logic cards, power supplies, and cooling fans—that are removed or replaced

without disrupting director or Fibre Channel link operation.

• A modular design that enables quick removal and replacement of FRUs without tools or

equipment.

• Concurrent port maintenance—UPM cards are added or replaced and fiber-optic cables are

attached to ports without interrupting other ports or director operation.

• Beaconing to assist service personnel in locating a specific port, FRU, or director in a

multi-switch environment. When port beaconing is enabled, the amber LED associated with the port flashes. When FRU beaconing is enabled, the amber (service required) LED on the FRU flashes. When unit beaconing is enabled, the system error indicator on the front bezel flashes. Beaconing does not affect port, FRU, or director operation.

• Data collection through the Element Manager on the HAFM appliance to help isolate system

problems. The data includes a memory dump file and audit, hardware, and engineering logs.

• Status monitoring of redundant FRUs and alternate Fibre Channel data paths to ensure

continued director availability in case of failover. The HAFM application queries the status of each backup FRU daily. A backup FRU failure is indicated by an illuminated amber LED.

• SNMP management using the Fibre Alliance management information base (MIB) 3.1, that runs

on the HAFM appliance. Up to 12 authorized management workstations can be configured through the HAFM application to receive unsolicited SNMP trap messages. The trap messages indicate operational state changes and failure conditions.

• SNMP management using the Fibre Channel Fabric Element MIB 1.1, transmission control

Director 2/140 installation guide 15

Zoning

The director supports a name server zoning feature that partitions attached devices into restricted-access groups called zones. Devices in the same zone can recognize and communicate with each other through switched port-to-port connections. Devices in separate zones cannot communicate with each other.

Zoning is configured by authorizing or restricting access to name server information associated with device N_Ports that attach to director fabric ports (F_Ports). A zone member is specified by the port number to which a device is attached, or by the eight-byte (16-digit) World Wide Name (WWN) assigned to the host bus adapter (HBA) or Fibre Channel interface installed in a device. A device can belong to multiple zones.

CAUTION: If zoning is implemented by port number, a change to the director fiber-optic cable

configuration disrupts zone operation and may incorrectly include or exclude a device from a zone.

If zoning is implemented by WWN, removal and replacement of a device HBA or Fibre Channel interface (thereby changing the device WWN) disrupts zone operation and may incorrectly include or exclude a device from a zone.

In Open Fabric mode, only zoning by WWN is supported. Zoning by port numbers is not supported.

Zones are grouped into zone sets. A zone set is a group of zones that is enabled (activated) or disabled across all directors and edge switches in a multi-switch fabric. Only one zone set can be enabled at one time.

Multi-switch fabrics

A Fibre Channel topology that consists of one or more interconnected directors or switch elements is called a fabric. Operational software provides the ability to interconnect directors (through expansion port (E_Port) connections) to form a multi-switch fabric. The data transmission path through the fabric is typically determined by fabric elements and is user-transparent. Subject to zoning restrictions, devices attached to any interconnected director can communicate with each other through the fabric.

Because a multi-switch fabric is typically complex, maintenance personnel should be aware that several factors can degrade fabric performance or cause connectivity failures. These factors include:

• Domain ID assignment—Each director in a fabric is identified by a unique domain ID that

ranges from 1 through 31. A domain ID of 0 is invalid. If two operational fabrics join, they determine if any domain ID conflicts exist between the fabrics. If one or more conflicts exist, the E_Ports that form the interswitch link (ISL) segment to prevent the fabrics from joining.

• Zoning—In a multi-switch fabric is configured on a fabric-wide basis, and a change to the

zoning configuration is applied to all directors and switch elements in the fabric. To ensure zoning is consistent across a fabric, the following rules are enforced when two fabrics (zoned or unzoned) join:

Overview16

• Fabric A unzoned and Fabric B unzoned—The fabrics join successfully, and the resulting

fabric remains unzoned.

• Fabric A zoned and Fabric B unzoned—The fabrics join successfully, and fabric B

automatically inherits the zoning configuration from fabric A.

• Fabric A unzoned and Fabric B zoned—The fabrics join successfully, and fabric A

automatically inherits the zoning configuration from fabric B.

• Fabric A zoned and Fabric B zoned—The fabrics join successfully only if the zone

configurations can be merged. If the fabrics cannot join, the connecting E_Ports segment and the fabrics remain independent.

Zone configurations for two fabrics are compatible (the zones can join) if the active zone set name is identical for each fabric, and if zones with the same name have identical elements.

• Port segmentation—When an ISL activates, directors exchange operating parameters to

determine if they are compatible and can join to form a single fabric. If they are incompatible, the connecting E_Port at each director segments to prevent the creation of a single fabric. A segmented link transmits only Class F traffic; the link does not transmit Class 2 or Class 3 traffic. The following conditions cause ports to segment:

• Incompatible operating parameters—Either the resource allocation timeout value (R_A_TOV)

or error detect timeout value (E_D_TOV) is inconsistent between directors. To prevent E_Port segmentation, the same E_D_TOV and R_A_TOV must be specified for each director.

• Duplicate domain IDs—One or more domain ID conflicts are detected.

• Incompatible zoning configurations—Zoning configurations for the directors are not

compatible.

• Build fabric protocol error—A protocol error is detected during the process of forming the

fabric.

• No principal switch—No director in the fabric is capable of becoming the principal switch.

• No response from attached switch—After a fabric is created, each director in the fabric

periodically verifies operation of all attached switches and directors. An ISL segments if a switch or director does not respond to a verification request.

• ELP retransmission failure timeout—A director that exhibits a hardware failure or connectivity

problem cannot transmit or receive Class F frames. The director did not receive a response to multiple exchange link protocol (ELP) frames, did not receive a fabric login (FLOGI) frame, and cannot join an operational fabric.

Hardware components

The director provides a modular design that enables quick removal and replacement of FRUs. The following sections define Director 2/140 main components.

CTP card

The Director 2/140 ships with two Control Processor (CTP) cards. The active CTP card initializes and configures the director after power on, and contains the microprocessor and associated logic that coordinate director operation. The second CTP card serves as a backup. A CTP card provides an Initial Machine Load (IML) button on the faceplate. When the button is pressed and held for three seconds, the director reloads firmware and resets the CTP card without switching off power or affecting operational fiber-optic links.

Each CTP card also provides a 10/100 megabit per second (Mbps) RJ-45 twisted pair connector on the faceplate that attaches to an Ethernet Local Area Network (LAN).

Each CTP card provides System Services Processor (SSP) and Embedded Port (EP) subsystems. The SSP subsystem runs director applications, communicates with director ports, and controls the RS-232 maintenance port and 10/100 Mbps ethernet port. The EP subsystem provides Class F processing, and manages frame transmission to and from the Serial Crossbar Assembly (SBAR). In addition, CTP cards provide non-volatile memory for storing firmware director configuration information, persistent operating parameters, and memory dump files. Director firmware is upgraded concurrently (without disrupting operation).

Power/system LED assembly

The bezel at the top front of the director includes an amber system error light-emitting diode (LED) and a green power LED. These LEDs are actuated and controlled by a Power/system LED assembly which is accessed from the rear of the director.

The power LED illuminates when the director is powered on and operational. If the LED extinguishes, a facility power source, alternating current (AC) power cord, or director power distribution failure is indicated.

The system error LED illuminates when the director detects an event requiring immediate operator attention, such as a FRU failure. The LED remains illuminated as long as an event is active. The LED extinguishes when the Clear System Error Light function is selected from the Element Manager application. The LED blinks if unit beaconing is enabled. An illuminated system error LED (indicating a failure) takes precedence over unit beaconing.

Power supplies

The Director 2/140 uses redundant, load-sharing power supplies which step down and rectify facility input power to provide 48-VDC power to director FRUs. The power supplies also provide over-voltage and over-current protection. Either power supply can be replaced while the switch is powered on and operational. Each power supply has a separate backplane connection to allow for different AC power sources.

The power supplies are input rated at 180 to 264 VAC. The faceplate of each power supply provides the following status LEDs:

• A green PWR OK LED turns O

• An amber FAULT LED turns O

• An amber TEMP LED turns O

• An amber I LIM LED turns O

Power supply requirements are listed in Appendix B.

UPM card

Each Universal Port Module (UPM) card provides four full-duplex generic ports (G_Ports) that transmit or receive data at 1.063 or 2.125 gigabits per second (Gb/s). G_Port functionality depends on the type of cable attachment. UPM cards use Non-Open Fiber Control (NOFC) Class 1 laser transceivers that comply with Section 21 of the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), Subpart J as of the date of manufacture.

Depending on device connections, G_Ports work as follows:

• If the G_Port is attached to a Fibre Channel device, the port functions as a fabric port (F_Port).

N if the power supply is operational and receiving AC power.

N if the power supply fails.

N if the power supply shuts down due to an over temperature

condition.

N if the power supply is overloaded and operating at the current

limit (15.6 A).

An F_Port is the interface on a director that connects to a device N_Port.

Director 2/140 installation guide 19

• If the G_Port is attached to another director to form an Interswitch Link (ISL), the port functions as

an expansion port (E_Port). A multi-switch fabric is formed through multiple directors and ISLs.

Single-mode or multi-mode fiber-optic cables attach to UPM cards through small form factor pluggable (SFP) optic transceivers. The fiber-optic transceivers provide duplex connectors, and can be detached from UPM cards (through a 10-pin interface) for easy replacement. Three fiber-optic transceiver types are available:

• Short-wave laser—Short-wave laser transceivers provide connections for transferring data over

short distances (2 to 500 meters) through 50-μm (500 meters) or 62.5-μm (200 meters) multi-mode fiber.

NOTE: HP recommends 50-μm fiber-optic cable for any new installation requiring multi-mode fiber.

• Long-wave laser—Long-wave laser transceivers provide connections for transferring data over

long distances (up to 10 kilometers) through 9-μm single-mode fiber.

• Extended reach long-wave laser—Long-wave laser transceivers that provide connections for

transferring data over extended long distances (up to 35 kilometers) through 9-μm single-mode fiber.

Fan modules

Three fan modules, each containing one system fan (three system fans total), provide cooling for director FRUs, as well as provide redundancy for continued operation if a fan fails.

The fan module can be replaced while the director is powered on and operating, provided the module is replaced within 10 minutes (after which software powers off the director). An amber LED for each fan module turns O

SBAR assembly

The director ships with two SBAR assemblies. The active SBAR is responsible for Fibre Channel frame transmission from any director port to any other director port. Connections are established without software intervention. The assembly accepts a connection request from a port, determines if a connection can be established, and establishes the connection if the destination port is available. The assembly also stores busy, source connection, and error status for each director port.

N if one or more fans fail or rotate at insufficient velocity.

Director 2/140 installation guide 21

The backup SBAR takes over operation if the active assembly fails, and provides the ability to maintain connectivity and data frame transmission without interruption. The transition to the backup assembly is transparent to attached devices.

Each SBAR assembly consists of a card and steel carriage that mounts flush on the backplane. The carriage provides protection for the back of the card, distributes cooling airflow, and assists in aligning the assembly during installation. The rear of the carriage contains a green LED that turns O

AC module

The AC module is located at the bottom rear of the director. Either AC module can be replaced while the director is powered on and operational. The module provides:

• Two single-phase, 220 VAC, power connectors.

• An input filter and AC system harness (internal to the FRU) that provides the wiring to connect the

AC power connectors to the power supplies (through the backplane).

Backplane

The backplane provides 48 VDC power distribution and connections for all logic cards. The backplane is a nonconcurrent FRU. The director must be powered off prior to FRU removal and replacement.
