Overview Features Features of the Director 2/140 include: • Scalable from 64 to 140 User ports • 100% dynamic non-blocking, cut through switching with congestion queuing • Online error detection, error isolation, and error recovery • Redundant, hotpluggable components • Full duplex 200 MB/sec per port performance • Less than 2-µs average switch latency • 100-km distance support (60 buffers), with use of repeaters • Small form factor, hot-pluggable optical transceivers, auto configure G_ports
Overview Product Manager application. Administrators launch the EWS interface from a remote PC by entering the director’s IP address as the internet URL, then entering a user name and password at a login screen. The PC browser then becomes a management console. NOTE: The default user name for the right to view status and other information is “operator.” The default user name for the right to modify configuration data, perform maintenance tasks, or perform other options is “administrator.
Overview • Automatic notification of significant system events (to support personnel or administrators) through e-mail messages or the call-home feature at the HAFM server. • A modem for use by support personnel to dial-in to the HAFM server for event notification and to perform remote diagnostics.
Overview management workstations can be configured through the Product Manager application to receive unsolicited SNMP trap messages. The trap messages indicate operational state changes and failure conditions. NOTE: For more information about SNMP support provided by HP products, refer to the hp StorageWorks SNMP reference guide for directors and edge switches. The director supports a name server zoning feature that partitions attached devices into restricted-access groups called zones.
Overview Because a multi-switch fabric is typically complex, maintenance personnel should be aware that several factors can degrade fabric performance or cause connectivity failures. These factors include: • Domain ID assignment—Each director in a fabric is identified by a unique domain ID that ranges from 1 through 31. A domain ID of 0 is invalid. If two operational fabrics join, they determine if any domain ID conflicts exist between the fabrics.
Overview — Incompatible zoning configurations—Zoning configurations for the directors are not compatible. — Build fabric protocol error—A protocol error is detected during the process of forming the fabric. — No principal switch—No director in the fabric is capable of becoming the principal switch. — No response from attached switch—After a fabric is created, each director in the fabric periodically verifies operation of all attached switches and directors.
Overview 1 2 3 4 1 2 Front bezel Power and system error LEDs 3 4 UPM cards (32) CTP cards Figure 1–2: Director components—front Power/System LED Assembly The bezel at the top front of the director includes an amber system error light-emitting diode (LED) and a green power LED. These LEDs are actuated and controlled by a Power/System LED Assembly which is accessed from the rear of the director. The power LED illuminates when the director is powered on and operational.
Overview Power Supplies The Director 2/140 uses redundant, load-sharing power supplies which step down and rectify facility input power to provide 48-VDC power to director FRUs. The power supplies also provide over-voltage and over-current protection. Either power supply can be replaced while the switch is powered on and operational. Each power supply has a separate backplane connection to allow for different AC power sources. The power supplies are input rated at 180 to 264 VAC.
Overview UPM 1 2 1 2 3 Card LED Port LEDs Port Connectors (G_Ports) 3 Figure 1–3: UPM card LEDs and connectors Single-mode or multi-mode fiber-optic cables attach to UPM cards through small form factor pluggable (SFP) optic transceivers. The fiber-optic transceivers provide duplex connectors, and can be detached from UPM cards (through a 10-pin interface) for easy replacement. Three fiber-optic transceiver types are available.
Overview • Extended reach long-wave Laser—Long-wave laser transceivers that provide connections for transferring data over extended long distances (up to 35 kilometers) through 9-µm single-mode fiber. CTP Card The Director 2/140 ships with two Control Processor (CTP) cards. The active CTP card initializes and configures the director after power on, and contains the microprocessor and associated logic that coordinate director operation. The second CTP card serves as a backup.

Overview SBAR Assembly The director ships with two SBAR assemblies. The active SBAR is responsible for Fibre Channel frame transmission from any director port to any other director port. Connections are established without software intervention. The assembly accepts a connection request from a port, determines if a connection can be established, and establishes the connection if the destination port is available. The assembly also stores busy, source connection, and error status for each director port.

Domain name servers (DNS) translate domain names into IP addresses. name server zoning N_Port access management that allows N_Ports to communicate if and only if they belong to a common name server zone. network address Name or address that identifies a managed product on a TCP/IP network.
Glossary • Online—when the director is set online, an attached device can log in to the director if the port is not blocked. Attached devices can communicate with each other if they are configured in the same zone. • Offline—when the director is set offline, all ports are set offline. The director transmits the offline sequence (OLS) to attached devices, and the devices cannot log in to the director.
Glossary password Unique string of characters known to the computer system and to a user who must specify it to gain full or limited access to a system and to the information stored within it. path In a network, any route between any two ports. persistent binding A form of server-level access control that uses configuration information to bind a server to a specific Fibre Channel storage volume (or logical device) using a unit number.
Glossary product name User-configurable identifier assigned to a managed product. Typically, this name is stored on the product itself. For the director, the product name can also be accessed by an SNMP manager as the system name. PSP bucket See preventive service planning bucket. R_A_TOV See resource allocation time-out value.
Glossary segmented E_Port E_Port that has ceased to function as an E_Port within a multi-switch fabric due to an incompatibility between the fabrics that it joins. See also expansion port. SEL System error light. serial crossbar assembly The serial crossbar assembly (SBAR) is responsible for Fibre Channel frame transmission from any director port to any other director port. Connections are established without software intervention. SNMP Simple network management protocol.
Glossary switch priority Value configured into each switch in a fabric that determines its relative likelihood of becoming the fabric’s principal switch. system services processor Controls the RS-232 maintenance port, the Ethernet port, and the operator panel of a Fibre Channel director. topology Logical and/or physical arrangement of stations on a network. trap Unsolicited notification of an event originating from a SNMP managed device and directed to an SNMP network management station.
Glossary warning message Indication that a possible error has been detected. See also error message and information message. wrap plug See loopback plug. world wide name Eight byte address that uniquely identifies a switch, or a node (end device), even on global networks. WWN See world wide name. zone Set of devices that can access one another. All connected devices may be configured into one or more zones. Devices in the same zone can see each other. Those devices that occupy different zones cannot.
