Installing Remote Switch

You can use the Remote Switch feature to configure a pair of switches to

operate over an extended WAN interface. This enables the switches to

communicate across an ATM network by using a compatible Fibre Channel

to an ATM gateway. For detailed information on the Remote Switch

feature, see the Distributed Fabrics User’s Guide.

Note

Remote Switch can only be implemented in a fabric that contains

exactly two switches.

A Remote Switch fabric requires two switches with Fabric OS version

a2.4.1 or later installed; both the switches must have the same configuration

and a separate license for each switch. The switch licenses are applied by

your HP Customer Engineer (CE). You can also install a license through

Telnet or Web Tools. Should any license keys be needed to access features

not already licensed on your FC Switch 6164, they can be obtained through

the following web site:

Installing Through Telnet

1. Log onto the switch by Telnet (see the user’s guide provided with the

hardware for details), using an account that has administrative privileges.

2. If you want to determine whether a Remote Switch license is already

installed on the switch, type licenseShow on the Telnet command line.

A list displays all licenses currently installed on the switch.
