Installing the SAN Switch 2/8

27

SAN Switch 2/8 Version 3.1.x Installation Guide

Additional Alerts

If the fabric size exceeds the four switch limit, the switch experiences the 
following activity:

In Fabric Manager and Web Tools, the switch icons in Fabric View turn 
yellow for every 2/8 EL installed in a fabric that exceeds the four switch limit. 
For example, in Web Tools the following message appears in the bottom left 
hand corner of the window:

The Fabric has changed - - Reload / Refresh

Note:  

To prevent this message from reappearing, you must update to the 

optional

 Full 

Fabric license.

 

Please note that removing the Ethernet connection will not eliminate this 

message. See the “

Four Switch Limitation Workarounds

” section on page 27 in this 

chapter for instructions on how to purchase the Full Fabric license.

The switch beacons continuously, with front panel LEDs lighting amber, 
similar to a firmware download. The switch stops beaconing during 
reconfiguration, switchdisable, switchenable. It also stops beaconing when 
the error condition no longer exists. Beaconing resumes if the error is detected 
again.

Four Switch Limitation Workarounds

Use one of the following workarounds to prevent four switch limitation errors.

Upgrade the current SAN Switch 2/8 EL IV_Domain_Fabric license to the 
optional Full Fabric license. The Full Fabric license provides full fabric 
functionality, with no limits on the number of switches in the fabric.

For purchasing information, contact your authorized HP Sales representative, 
or go to the HP website:

http://www.hp.com

In fabrics which contain five or more switches and that have at least one 
switch with the IV_FABRIC license installed, reduce the number of switches 
to four or less.
