Product feature
enablement (PFE) key
support
PFE keys supported: Element
Manager, OpenTrunking,
SANtegrity binding and
authentication, OSMS, FMS,
FlexPorts, FICON CUP zoning,
full volatility, full fabric, and NPIV.
PFE keys supported: Element
Manager, SANtegrity binding,
FMS, remote fabric, and
FlexPars (last two are Intrepid
10000 Director features). Full
volatility is supported but does
not require a PFE key.
PFE keys are not supported
through the SANvergence
Manager or Element Manager
applications.
Port address FE and
FF prohibit dynamic
connectivity mask
(PDCM) array entries
Port addresses FE and FF are
implemented internally and only
when FMS is PFE-key enabled.
Port addresses FE and FF do
not exist in the PDCM array and
cannot be used. FICON devices
cannot attach to physical ports
associated with these
addresses. When FMS is
enabled, the ports become spare
(transmit only an OLS) but can
be port swapped.
FICON management style (with
associated PDCM array) not
supported.
