31-day grace period. Before grace period expiration, the application must be reactivated
through a PFE key.
• Flexport technology—A fexport technology product is delivered at a discount without all Fibre
Channel ports enabled. When additional port capacity is required, the remaining ports are
incrementally enabled through this feature.
• Full volatility—This feature ensures that no Fibre Channel frames are stored after the product is
powered off or fails and that a memory dump file (that possibly includes classified data frames)
is not included as part of the data collection procedure.
• OpenTrunking—This feature provides dynamic load balancing of Fibre Channel traffic across
multiple ISLs.
• SANtegrity Authentication—This feature enhances security in SANs by restricting access to Fibre
Channel elements (directors or fabric switches).
• SANtegrity Binding—This feature enhances security in SANs with a large and mixed group of
fabrics and attached devices.
After purchasing a feature, obtain the PFE key by following the enclosed instructions. The key is an
alphanumeric string consisting of uppercase and lowercase characters that must be entered exactly,
including dashes. An example format is:
XxXx-XXxX-xxXX-xX
Keys are encoded to work only with the serial number of the installed product. Record the key to
re-install the feature if required. If the product fails and is replaced, obtain new PFE keys from the
Hewlett-Packard Authorization Center web site: http://webkey.external.hp.com
. Have the serial
numbers of the failed and replacement products available. After obtaining a PFE key, install the
feature as follows:
1. Select Configure > Optional Features.
