4/8 and 4/16 SAN Switch chassis

This section describes the chassis front (port side) and rear (nonport side).

4/8 and 4/16 SAN Switch port side

All L EDs reside on the port side of the switch (see Figure 1). The 4/8 and 4/16 SAN Switch enclosure uses forced-air cooling, with the fans pushing the air from the nonport side of the chassis through the enclosure and exhausting at the port side.

See Interpreting LED activity on page 69 for a complete description of switch LEDs.

4/8 and

4/16 SAN Switch nonport side

The non

port side is used solely for airflow and serial number labels. There are two labels on the rear of the chassis: one is the HP serial number, the other is the switch supplier’s serial number. The left label also contains the 4/8 SAN Switch or 4/16 SAN Switch MAC ad

dress and world wide name (WWN).

Activating additional 4/8 and 4/16 SAN Switch ports

The 4/16 SAN Switch models offer 8, 12, or 16 licensed ports. To enable ports 8 through 11, you must purchase and install one or more HP StorageWorks 4-Port Upgrade Licenses. To enable ports 12 through 15, you must purchase and install a second HP StorageWorks 4-Port Upgrade License.

To activate additional ports:

1. Use the portshow command to verify the number of p orts licensed on your switch.

The port status output indicates Started and Licensed for enabled ports. See the Fabric OS command reference manual for specific information on this command.

2. Use the switchshow command to obtain your SAN Switch WWN, which your HP

representative requires to assign a license key.

SAN Switch installation guide

3. Contact your HP representative to purchase th e HP StorageWorks 4-Port Upgrade

License, part number T4260A.

4. Upon receipt of the HP StorageWorks 4-Port Upgrade License, install the license:

a. Log in to the 4/16 Switch as admin. b. Issue the licenseadd command, followed by the license key enclosed in

quotation marks. (The license key consists of approximately 16 uppercase and lowercase letters and numerals.)

NOTE:

Enter the license key exactly as issued. If you enter the key incorrectly, the license will not function properly.

c. Issue the licenseshow command to verify that the license is valid. If a

licensed product is not displayed, the license is invalid.

NOTE:

It is not necessary to reboot the system. The product is available immediately after you enter the license key.

Enabling E_Ports on the 4/8 SAN Switch

The 4/8 SAN Switch requires that you purchase the Full Fabric Upgrade License, part number T4261A, to enable E_Ports (the 4/16 SAN Switch ships with the Full Fabric license installed). The switch, by default, cannot be connected to another switch until this license is installed. Without the license, the switch can still be directly connected to hosts and storage devices. To install the Full Fabric Upgrade License,usethelicenseadd command. After it has been installed, the license appears under the licenseshow command as Full Fabric License and indicates that E_Ports are now automatically enabled when interswitch links (ISLs) are connected.

SAN Switch installation guide

Cabling and configuring the SAN Switch

The SAN Switch must be configured to ensure correct o peration with a network and fabric. For instructions on configuring the switch to operate in a fabric containing switches from other vendors, see the Fabric OS administrator’s guide.

For more information about the commands used in this procedure, see the Fabric OS

command referenc

NOTE:

All supp orting Fabric OS documentation is accessible from the B-Series switches link on the following web site: h

Recommendations for cable management

Before installing the switch, plan the rack space required for cable management based on the following HP recommendations:

• Leave enough space to allow for the fact that the minimum bend radius for a

50-micron cable is 2 inches under full tensile load and 1.2 inches with no tensile load.

• Leave at least 1 m (3.28 ft) of slack for each port cable. This provides room to

remove and replace the switch, allows for inadvertent movement of the rack, and helps prevent the cables from being bent to less than the minimum bend radius.

• If you are using ISL Trunking, consider grouping cables by trunking groups. The

cables used in trunking groups must meet specific requirements, as described in the Fabric OS administrator’s guide.

• For easier maintenance, label the fiber optic cables and record the devices

to which they are connected.

• Keep LEDs visible by routing port cables and other cables away from the LEDs.

• Do not use tie wraps on fiber optic cables; tie wraps are easily overtightened

and can damage the optic fibers. HP recommends using velcro straps to secure and organize fiber optic cables.

CAUTION:

The minimum bend radius for a 50-m icron cable is 2 inches u nder full tensile load and

1.2 inches with no tensile load. Because they are easily overtightened, HP does not recommend tie wraps for optical cables.

To connect the cables to the SFP transceivers:

1. The cable connectors are keyed to ensure correct orientation. Orient a cable

connector so that the key (the ridge on the side of the connector) aligns with the slot in the transceiver, a nd insert the cable into the transceiver until the latching mechanism clicks. If a cable does not install easily, make sure it is correctly oriented.

For detailed instructions on the cable type, see the cable manufacturer’s documentation.

2. Repeat Step 1 for the remaining transceivers, as required.

The cables used in trunking groups must meet specific requirements. For a list of these requirements, see the Fabric OS administrator’s guide.

Verify the configuration

To confirm that the switch is configured and ready for use:

1. Check the LEDs to verify that all components are functional. For information about

LED patterns, see Interpreting LED activity on page 69.

2. Issue the switchshow command from the workstation. This command provides

information about the switch and port status.

3. Issue the fabricshow command from the workstation. This command provides

general information about the fabric.

Back up the configuration

HP recommends regular backups to ensure that a recent configuration is available. To back up the switch configuration to an FTP ser ver:

1. Issue the configupload command.

Powering on and off

The following sections provide information on powering specific SAN Switch models on and off.

4/8 and 4/16 SAN Switch models

To power on:

1. Connect one end of the power cord to the AC inlet on the switch; connect the

other end to a power source.

2. Set the AC power switch to I.

The switch runs POST each time it is powered on, reset, or rebooted. POST requires approximately three minutes.

To power off:

1. Set the AC power switch to O.

2. Remove the power cords from the power sources.

NOTE:

Removing all power from the switch triggers a system reset. All devices are returned to their initial state the next time the switch is powered on.

4/32, 4/32B and 4/64 SAN Switch models

Connect one or both power cords to the AC power inlets on the switch; connect the other end to a power source.

To power on, set both AC power switches to I. Power is supplied to the switch as soon as the first power supply is connected and powered on.

To power off, set both AC power switches to O and remove the AC power cord from the power source.

NOTE:

Removing all power from the switch triggers a system reset. All devices are returned to their initial states the next time the switch is powered o n.

Managing SAN Switches from a single management station

A management station connected to one switch via Ethernet can also be used to manag e other switches connected to the first switch via FC. To do so, set the gateway address of the first switch to the gateway address of the subnet that the first switch resides on. Then, set the FC gateway address of each of the other switches to the FCIP address of the first switch. (See Table 8 for an example of address sets for a management station with three switches).

NOTE:

The disadvantage of this method is that the management station can only communicate with the switches.

Interpreting LED activity

System activity and status can be determined through the LEDs on the switch. There are three possibl

e LED states that display either green or amber:

• Asteadylight

• Aflashinglight

• No light

LEDs display either green or amber colors. A steady green light indicates a healthy state. Sometimes, the LEDs flash any of the colors during boot, POST, or other diagnostic tests. This is normal; it does not indicate a problem unless the LEDs do not indicate a healthy sta

te after all boot processes and diagnostic tests are complete.

POST and boot specifications

When the switch is powered on or rebooted, the switch performs POST. Total boot time with POST is at least three minutes.

POST

Boot

Use fastboot t the fastboot command, refer to the Fabric OS command reference manual for the Fabric OS version running on your switch.

POST is a system check that is performed each time the switch is powered on, rebooted, or reset. During POST, the LEDs flash different colors. Any errors that occur during POST appear in the error log.

Monitor POST diagnostic tests via the error log or the CLI. The POST process consists of:

• Displaying preliminary POST diagnostics

• Initializing the operating system

• Initializing the hardware

• Performing diagnostic tests that check several functions, including circuitry, port

functionality, memory, statistics counters, and serialization

Boot completes in approximately three minutes during POST. The boot process consists of:

• Defining the universal port configuration set

• Initial

• Analyzing the fabric

• Assig

• Constructing the unicast routing tables

• Enabling normal port operation

Diagnostic tests

In addition to POST, Fabric OS includes diagnostic tests to help troubleshoot the hardware and firmware. This includes tests of internal connections and circuitry, fixed media, and transceivers and cables.

The tests are implemented by command, either through a Telnet session or through a terminal set up for a serial connection to the switch. Some tests require the por ts to be connected by external cables to allow diagnostics to verify the serializer/deserializer interface, transceiver, and cable.

Diagnostic tests a re run at link speeds of 1 Gb/s, 2 Gb/s, and 4 Gb/s.

CAUTION:

Diagnostic tests might temporarily lock the transmit and receive speed of the links during diagnostic testing.
