Error-Detection, Reporting, and Serviceability Features
The director provides the following error detection, reporting, and serviceability
features:
• Light-emitting diodes (LEDs) on director FRUs and the front bezel that provide
visual indicators of hardware status or malfunctions.
• System and threshold alerts, event logs, audit logs, link incident logs, threshold
alert logs, and hardware logs that display director, Ethernet link, and Fibre
Channel link status at the HAFM server or on a remote workstation.
• Diagnostic software that performs power-on self-tests (POSTs) and port
diagnostics (internal loopback and external loopback).
• Automatic notification of significant system events (to support personnel or
administrators) through e-mail messages or the call-home feature.
• An internal modem in the HAFM server for HP call-home support.
NOTE: For directors and switches installed in some legacy environments, call-home notification
requires installation of HP Proactive Service software. This service is offered at no additional
charge for subsystems covered under an on-site warranty or on-site storage hardware support
contract. To register or order Proactive Service software, contact your HP customer service
representative.
• An RS-232 maintenance port at the rear of the director (port access is password
protected) that enables installation or service personnel to change the director’s
internet protocol (IP) address, subnet mask, and gateway address; or to run
diagnostics and isolate system problems through a local or remote terminal.
• Redundant FRUs (logic cards, power supplies, and cooling fans) that are removed
or replaced without disrupting director or Fibre Channel link operation.
• A modular design that enables quick removal and replacement of FRUs without
the use of special tools or equipment.
• Concurrent port maintenance. UPM cards are added or replaced and fiber-optic
cables are attached to ports without interrupting other ports or director operation.
• Beaconing to assist service personnel in locating a specific port, FRU, or director
in a multiswitch environment. When port beaconing is enabled, the amber LED
associated with the port flashes. When FRU beaconing is enabled, the amber
