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 LEDs 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 nonport 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 address 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 ports 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.
