Installing and activating Port Upgrade licenses
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. For more information
on this command, see the
Fabric OS Command Reference Manual
.
2.
Obtain the WWN from the Switch ID pull-out tab located on the port side of your switch.
Alternately, you can use the
switchshow
command to display the WWN.
3.
Contact your Hewlett Packard Enterprise representative to purchase the appropriate Port
Upgrade license. Hewlett Packard Enterprise requires the switch WWN obtained in
to assign a license key.
4.
Install the license:
a.
Log in to the switch as
admin
.
b.
Issue the
licenseadd
command, followed by the license key enclosed in quotation
marks. (The license key consists of approximately 16 uppercase and lowercase letters
and numerals.)
IMPORTANT:
Enter the license key exactly as issued. If you enter the key incorrectly,
the license will not function properly.
c.
Enter the
licenseshow
command to verify that the license is valid. If a licensed product
is not displayed, the license is not valid.
NOTE:
It is not necessary to reboot the system.
5.
Configure the inactive ports. Enter the
portstart
command to start the ports. This command
loads the port code, unlike the
portenable
command, which enables the port laser. For
example:
portstart 16–31
6.
Enter the
portenable
command to enable the ports. For example:
portenable 16–31
7.
(Optional) Enter the
portshow
command to verify that the newly activated ports are started.
SAN Switch ISL Trunking groups
All 8-Gb SAN Switch models support ISL Trunking as an optional, licensed feature for FC ports.
When this feature is enabled, trunked groups of up to eight contiguous ports are created.
