• A6384A HF2 fiber switch chassis with one integrated Ethernet
management LAN adapter card, one integrated 8-port fiber card, and
one expansion slot. For the chassis to be a functional switch, install
one of the following switch modules in the expansion slot:
— The A6388A HF2 8-port fiber switch module. This gives 16-fiber
ports to the switch (8 from the integrated fiber card and 8 from
the A6388A switch module).
— The A6389A HF2 4-port copper switch module. This gives 12
ports to the switch - a mixture of 8-fiber ports (from the
integrated fiber card) and 4-copper ports (from the A6389A
module). This switch module is compatible with HF1
components, making it possible to have a fabric composed of both
HF1 and HF2 components.
The A4891A HF1 switch is supported beginning with the following
HyperFabric software versions:
• HP-UX 11.0: HyperFabric software version B.11.00.02
• HP-UX 11i v1: HyperFabric software version B.11.11.00
The A6384A HF2 switch chassis with either module installed is
supported beginning with the following HyperFabric software versions:
• HP-UX 11.0: HyperFabric software version B.11.00.11
• HP-UX 11i v1: HyperFabric software version B.11.11.01
NOTE In this manual, the terms HyperFabric2 switch or HF2 switch refer
to the functional switch (the A6384A switch chassis with one of the
switch modules installed).
