Instruction Manual

NOTE:
The DPOD feature does not consider disabled ports as candidates for l icense assignments.
You can persistently disable an otherwise viable port to cause it not to come online and
pr eserve a license assignment for future use.
Verifying the configuration
After setting initial parameters, verify the configuration as follows:
1. Check the LEDs to verify that all components are functional.
For information about LED patterns, refer to Interpreting LED activit y.
2. Type switchshow to get information about the switch and port status.
3. Type fabricshow to get general inf ormation about the fabric.
Backing up the configuration
HP recom m ends regular backups to ensure that a recent configuration is available, if
required. For specific instructions on how to back up the configuration, refer to the latest
version of the HP StorageWorks Fabric OS administrator guide.
To back up the switch configuration to an FTP server, type configupl and follow the
prompts. The configupl command copies the switch config uration to the server,
making it available for downloading to a replacement switch, if necessa ry.
