9. Ensure the Link Incident field displays None and the Reason field is blank. If an
ISL segmentation or other problem is indicated, refer to the hp StorageWorks edge
switch 2/32 service manual to isolate the problem. If no problems are indicated,
installation tasks are complete.
Task 18: Unpack, Inspect, and Install the Ethernet Hub
(Optional)
The HAFM server and one or more switches connect through an Ethernet hub
installed on a 10/100 Mbps LAN segment. One hub port is required to connect the
HAFM server, and one hub port is required to connect each switch. A combination of
up to 48 HP products can be configured and managed by a single HAFM server,
therefore multiple hubs may be required to provide sufficient port connections. These
hubs must be connected in accordance with the hub manufacturer’s specifications. HP
recommends using a star or hub-and-spoke topology when connecting multiple hubs.
The HAFM server must be connected to the center hub, and there should never be
more than two hubs between the HAFM server and any switch. Refer to the hub
manufacturer’s documentation for more detailed information.
For instructions to unpack and inspect one or more Ethernet hubs, and install the hubs
in a desktop or rack-mount configuration, refer to the appropriate Ethernet hub
documentation.
