SAN Switch 2/8V, 2/16V and 2/16N features
The SAN Switch 2/8V, SAN Switch 2/16V and SAN Switch 2/16N are Fibre Channel switches that support link speeds up to 2 Gb/sec. The switches operate in a fabric containing multiple switches or as the only switch in a fabric.
The SAN Switch 2/16N and SAN Switch 2/16V look the same; however, the SAN Switch 2/16N includes a Full-Fabric license. The Full-Fabric license allows more than two switches in the domain.
NOTE: Unless otherwise noted, functionality and features for the 2/16V are applicable to the
2/16N throughout this guide.
The 2/8V, 2/16V and 2/16N provide the following features:
• Air-cooled 1U chassis. Install the switch as a stand-alone unit, or mounted in one of the
following HP custom racks:
• HP 10,000 series Rack
•HP System/e Rack
Overview18
• 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).
• 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.
• A real-time clock (RTC) with 10-year battery
• Plenum, part number 5697-4919
SAN Switch 2/8V, 2/16V and 2/16N chassis
The following sections illustrate the chassis front and rear panels.
SAN Switch 2/8V, 2/16V and 2/16N—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. Table 1 identifies port side components.
All LEDs reside on the port side of the switches. The nonport side is used for air intake. 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.
See ”Interpreting LED activity” on page 64 for a complete description of switch LEDs.

Upgrading SAN Switch 4/32 ports
The SAN Switch 4/32 is available with either sixteen ports, 0 through 15 (Base model) or thirty two, ports 16 through 32 (Full model) activated.
To activate additional ports, contact your HP representative to purchase the
8-Port Upgrade License
with sixteen active ports, purchase one 8-Port Upgrade License to activate ports 16 through 23. Purchase two 8-Port Upgrade Licenses to activate ports 24 through 32.
NOTE: Check port status to verify if the license is pre-installed. For example, use the
portshow command for ports 16 through 32. If the port status output indicates “Started” and “Licensed”, then all thirty two ports are activated.
1. If ports 16 through 32 show no License, purchase the
License,
Your HP representative requires the SAN Switch 4/32’s World Wide Number (WWN) in order to assign a license key. Enter the switchshow command to obtain the WWN of your SAN Switch 4/32.
2. Install the
approximately sixteen uppercase and lowercase letters and digits.
a. Log in to the SAN Switch 4/32 as admin. b. Enter the licenseadd command, followed by the license key enclosed in quotation
Part Number T3677A, from an authorized HP representative.

, Part Number T3677A. For example, if your SAN Switch 4/32 shipped
HP StorageWorks 8-Port Upgrade
. The license key is a string of
HP StorageWorks
Overview24
NOTE: Enter the license key exactly as issued. If you enter it incorrectly, the license will not
function properly.
c. After entering the license key, use the licenseshow command to check to see if it is
valid. If a licensed product is not displayed, the license is invalid.
NOTE: After you enter a license, the licensed product is available immediately; the system
does not require a reboot.
3. Next, configure the inactive ports. Use the portstart command to start the ports. (This
command loads the port code, unlike the portenable command, which enables the port laser.) For example:
portstart 16-32
4. Use the portenable command to enable the ports. For example:
portenable 16-32
5. Optionally, use the portshow command to verify that the newly activated ports are
“Started.”
SAN Switch licensing
SAN Switches operate differently in the network depending on the HP StorageWorks domain licenses installed as follows:
• 2-domain Fabric License—Allows a maximum of two switches to operate within a
domain. The SAN Switch 2/8V and SAN Switch 2/16V ship with this license installed.
• 4-domain Fabric License—Upgrades the current 2-domain Fabric License, allowing a
maximum of four switches to operate within a domain. This license is offered for the SAN Switch 2/8V and SAN Switch 2/16V models only
• Full-fabric License—Allows four or more switches to operate within a domain. All SAN
Switch Power Pack models ship with this license installed.
To determine the type of licensing installed on your SAN Switch, enter the licenseshow command at the CLI prompt. A list of the all licenses currently installed on the switch displays, as shown in the following example.

Example
switch:admin> licenseshow AbbbcDefcQxdezdr: Web license Zoning license Fabric license Remote Switch license Extended Fabric license Fabric Watch license Performance Monitor license Trunking license Security license switch:admin>
NOTE: If the licensed feature is listed, the feature is installed and immediately available.
ISL Trunking groups
If your SAN 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 5.

SAN Switch supported (optional) features
SAN Switches support the following optional software, activated with the purchase of a corresponding license key.
• ISL Trunking
• Fabric Watch
• Advanced Performance Monitoring
• Extended Fabrics
• Remote Switch
NOTE: All SAN Switch Power Pack models ship with these licensed options already enabled.
