CP blades
CP blades determine the Director type:
• If CP2 blades are installed, the Director is a SAN Director 2/128.
• If CP4 blades are installed, the Director is a 4/256 SAN Director.
Mixed CP blades are not supported on a single chassis, except during specific upgrade procedures
detailed in the
SAN Director installation guide
. HP recommends that each Director have only one type of
CP blade installed and that each CP (primary and secondary partition) maintains the same firmware
version.
Port blade compatibility
Table 55 identifies which blades are supported for each Director.
