Installing and Configuring the Director 2/64

113Director 2/64 Installation Guide

Use these steps to fabric-attach the director and create an ISL:

1. Verify that the director is defined via HAFM. See “Enabling HAFM to

Manage the Director” on page 80.

2. Verify that the preferred domain ID for the director is unique and does not

conflict with the ID of another director or switch participating in the fabric.

To change the domain ID, see “Configure Fabric Parameters” on page 93.

3. Verify that the R_A_TOV and E_D_TOV values for the director are identical

to the values for all directors and edge switches participating in the fabric.

4. Route a multi-mode or single-mode fiber-optic cable (depending on the ISL

distance between directors) between customer-specified E_Ports of both

directors.

5. At the Products View page, click the Director 2/64 icon. The Hardware

View page for the selected director displays.

6. Click the UPM card graphic supporting the E_Port connection to open the

Port Card View page.

7. Click the E_Port connector to open the Port Properties dialog box, as shown

in Figure 55.

8. Verify that the Link Incident field displays None and the Segmentation

Reason field is blank or displays N/A. If an ISL segmentation or other

problem is indicated, consult the HP StorageWorks Director 2/64 Service

Manual to isolate the problem. If no problems are indicated, installation is

complete.
