Blades available for the DC Director
High availability
The following features contribute to the DC Director high-availability design:
•
Redundant, hot-swappable blades and FRUs
•
Enhanced data integrity on all data paths
•
Fabric Shortest Path First (FSPF) re-routing around failed links
•
Integration with Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) managers
•
Automatic CP failover
•
Non-disruptive “hot” software code loads and activation
•
Easy configuration, save, and restore
Description
Name
Function
DC Director CP
blade
CP8
The CP8 blade provides for management of all other blades
in the DC Director. There are two CP8 blades for
redundancy. This CP blade is compatible only with the DC
Director.
DC Director core
switch blade
CR8
The CR8 blade contains the ASICs for switching between
Director blades. Every Director blade connects to every core
switch blade. There are 384 total ports for Director blades.
Each core switch blade connects to 192 backplane ports.
Core switch blades have additional front port connectivity to
connect multiple chassis and backplane connections for the
storage server blade. This core switch blade is compatible
only with the DC Director.
16-port 8-Gbps
Director blade
FC8-16
A 16-port Director blade supporting 1, 2, 4, and 8Gbps port
speeds. This Director blade is compatible only with the
4/256 SAN Director or DC Director CP blades.
32-port 8-Gbps
Director blade
FC8-32
A 32-port Director blade supporting 1, 2, 4, and 8Gbps port
speeds.
48-port 8-Gbps
Director blade
FC8-48
A 48-port Director blade supporting 1, 2, 4, and 8Gbps port
speeds.
6-port 10-Gbps
Director blade
FC10-6
A 6-port Director blade supporting 10Gbps port speed.
Blade provides 10-Gbps ISLs. This Director blade is
compatible only with the 4/256 SAN Director or DC Director
CP blades.
B-Series MP Router
Blade (Fibre Channel
router blade)
FR4-18i
The FR4-18i blade integrates sixteen physical FC SFP ports
supporting FCR Services and two physical Gigabit Ethernet
(GbE) SFP ports supporting Fibre Channel Over IP (FCIP). The
two physical GbE ports can support up to sixteen virtual
E_ports.
HP StorageWorks
B-Series iSCSI
Director blade
(iSCSI bridge
blade)
FC4-16IP
The FC4-16IP blade enables bridging of iSCSI hosts to
Fibre Channel fabrics. It integrates eight Fibre Channel
optical SFP ports and 8 Gigabit Ethernet (GbE) copper
RJ-45 ports.
NOTE:
At the time of this document’s release, the FC4-16IP is
not supported in the DC Director. The FC4-16IP will be
supported in a future version of Fabric OS.
