Provide cascade connection for 8G FC Switch according to the following procedure:
1.
Check the locations of 8G FC Switch subjected to cascade connection and confirm that SFP+
modules are installed on the ports for the connection.
Install SFP+ modules if not installed.
2.
Check the internal settings of the additional 8G FC Switch to connect.
Zoning should not be set.
If set, always disable all zoning configurations to delete them completely.
After deleting the zone configurations, save the new zone configurations by using the "cfgsave"
command.
NOTE:
For how to delete zone information, see "Setting zoning" in "Appendix 8G FC Switch
Setting Features".
If an additional introduced 8G FC Switch is made cascade connection to the 8G FC
Switch in operation, delete the zone information only in the additional 8G FC Switch to
connect.
IMPORTANT:
If the Zone information of the 8G FC Switch used in the system operated, system
failure or data destruction may occur. The Zone information of the 8G FC Switch in the
system operated must not be deleted.
The Zone information set in the 8G FC Switch operated is transmitted to the 8G FC
Switch subjected to cascade connection and becomes effective.
Make sure that the Port Data Rate of both ends of the port cascaded, is set to 8Gbps together. For
how to configure the Port Data Rate and notes, refer to "Changing Port Data Rate" in " Appendix:
8G FC Switch Setting Features ".
Make sure that the ISL R_RDY Mode of both ends of the port cascaded, is set to Enable together.
For how to configure the ISL R_RDY Mode and notes, refer to "Changing ISL R_RDY Mode" in "
Appendix: 8G FC Switch Setting Features ".
3.
Disable 8G FC Switch to be connected by using the "switchDisable" command.

Change the domain IDs of 8G FC Switch to be connected by using the “configure” command.
NOTE:
For how to change domain IDs, see the domain ID setting feature in "Appendix 8G FC
Switch Setting Features".
5.
Connect 8G FC Switch with each other through an FC cable.
6.
Make disabled 8G FC Switch effective by using the "switchEnable" command.
