About this Guide 18 Edge Switch 2/24 Installation Guide
Switch Features 1 The HP StorageWorks Edge Switch 2/24 provides dynamic switched connections between Fibre Channel servers and devices in a storage area network (SAN) environment. SANs introduce the concept of server-to-device networking and multi-switch fabrics, eliminate requirements for dedicated connections, and enable the enterprise to become data centric. A SAN provides speed, high capacity, and flexibility for the enterprise, and is primarily based upon Fibre Channel architecture.
Switch Features Edge Switch 2/24 Description The Edge Switch 2/24 provides Fibre Channel connectivity through 24 generic mixed ports (GX_Ports). Switch ports can be configured as: ■ Fabric ports (F_Ports) to provide direct connectivity for up to 24 switched fabric devices. ■ Fabric loop ports (FL_Ports) to provide arbitrated loop connectivity and fabric attachment for FC-AL devices. Each FL_Port can theoretically support the connection of 126 FC-AL devices.
Switch Features Figure 1: Edge Switch 2/24 (front view) Field Replaceable Units (FRUs) The switch provides a modular design that enables quick removal and replacement of FRUs, including small form factor pluggable (SFP) optical transceivers and power supply assemblies with internal cooling fans. Edge Switch 2/24 FRUs are detailed in the front and rear panel feature descriptions. Front Panel Features Connectors and indicators include the: ■ Combined initial machine load and reset (IML/RESET) button.

Switch Features Ethernet LAN Connector The front panel provides a 10/100 megabit per second (Mbps) RJ-45 twisted-pair connector that attaches to an Ethernet LAN to provide communication with the HAFM appliance or an SNMP management workstation. Two green LEDs are associated with the LAN connector. When illuminated, the left LED indicates LAN operation at 10 Mbps, and the right LED indicates LAN operation at 100 Mbps. Initial Machine Load Button The IML/RESET button is shown in Figure 2 on page 22.
Switch Features The following fiber optic transceiver types are available: ■ Shortwave laser–Shortwave laser SFPs provide short-distance connections (2 to 500 meters) through 50-micron or 62.5-micron multi-mode fiber. ■ Longwave laser–Longwave laser SFPs provide long-distance connections (up to 10 kilometers) through 9-micron single-mode fiber. ■ Extended longwave laser–Two types of extended longwave laser transceivers provide connections for transferring 2.
Switch Features Rear Panel Features The switch provides a modular design that enables quick removal and replacement of field-replaceable power supply assemblies with internal cooling fans. Figure 3 illustrates the rear of the switch. 2 1 1 Power supplies with internal cooling fans (2) 2 Maintenance port Figure 3: Edge Switch 2/24 (rear view) Power Supplies The switch contains two power supply assemblies with internal cooling fans.
Switch Features Three cooling fans integrated in each power supply assembly (six fans total) provide cooling for the power supplies and CTP card, as well as redundancy for continued operation if a single fan fails. Fans are removed and replaced as part of the integrated power supply. Power supply requirements are listed in “Technical Specifications” on page 133.
Switch Features Switch Management The switch is managed and controlled through a: ■ Customer-supplied PC platform with an Internet connection to the Embedded Web Server (EWS) interface on the switch. Using this graphical user interface (GUI), operators can quickly view switch status. The interface also allows service personnel to perform configuration tasks, view system alerts and related log information, and monitor switch status, port status, and performance.
Switch Features High Availability-Fabric Manager and Element Manager As an option, the switch can be managed through an High Availability-Fabric Manager (HAFM) appliance running the Edge Switch 2/24 Product Manager application. Multiple switches and the HAFM appliance communicate on a local area network (LAN) through one or more 10/100 Base-T Ethernet hubs. One or more 24-port Ethernet hubs are optional and can be ordered with the switch.
Switch Features If only one HAFM appliance connection is used and this connection is provided through the customer intranet, functions provided by the HAFM appliance are available to all users. Dual LAN connections provide a dedicated LAN segment that isolates the HAFM appliance and managed switches from unauthorized users. ■ Part of a second HAFM appliance interface that connects to a customer intranet and allows operation of the HAFM application from remote user PCs or workstations.
Switch Features Command Line Interface The command line interface (CLI) allows you to access many HAFM functions while entering commands during a Telnet session with the switch.The primary purpose of the CLI is to automate management of a large number of switches using scripts. The CLI is not an interactive interface; no checking is done for pre-existing conditions and no prompts display to guide users through tasks.
Switch Features Operational Features The Edge Switch 2/24 supports several operational features including: ■ Advanced error detection, reporting, and serviceability. ■ Support for multi-switch fabrics. ■ Software diagnostics to aid in fault isolation and repair.
Switch Features ■ Automatic notification of significant system events (to support personnel or administrators) through e-mail messages or the call-home feature. ■ SNMP management using the Fibre Channel Fabric Element MIB (v3.1), TCP/IP MIB-II definition (RFC 1213), or a product-specific MIB that runs on the switch. Up to six authorized management workstations can be configured through the EWS interface and Element Manager to receive unsolicited SNMP trap messages.
Switch Features Management Appliance The HAFM appliance and Element Manager provide a GUI to manage, monitor, and isolate problems for multiple switches and multiswitch fabrics.
Switch Features ■ View tab–Select the View tab to display a product list and physical map of the discovered topology. ■ Product list–When the View tab is selected, the product list at the left side of the window displays a list of discovered devices and associated properties. ■ Physical map–When the View tab is selected, the physical map at the right side of the window depicts the SAN topology, discovered devices, and color-coded links.
Switch Features Caution: If zoning is implemented by port number, a change to the switch fiber optic cable configuration disrupts zone operation and may incorrectly include or exclude a device from a zone. If zoning is implemented by WWN, removal and replacement of a device HBA or Fibre Channel interface (thereby changing the device WWN) disrupts zone operation and may incorrectly include or exclude a device from a zone. In Open Fabric mode, only zoning by WWN is supported. Zoning by port numbers is not.
Switch Features Software Diagnostics The switch provides the following diagnostic software features that aid in fault isolation and repair of problems: 36 ■ FRUs provide on-board diagnostic and monitoring circuits that continuously report FRU status to the Embedded Web Server (EWS), and HAFM applications. These applications provide system alerts and logs that display failure and diagnostic information at the HAFM appliance or a remote workstation communicating with the HAFM appliance.
