3 Managing the 8Gb SAN Switch
Management features
The management tools built into the 8Gb SAN Switch (listed in Table 3 (page 20)) can be used
to monitor fabric topology, port status, physical status, and other information used for performance
analysis and system debugging.
When running IP over FC, these management tools must be run on both the Fibre Channel host
and the switch and must be supported by the Fibre Channel host driver. For a list of Fibre Channel
hosts supported by the 8Gb SAN Switch, contact your HP representative.

You can connect a management station to one switch with Ethernet while managing other switches
connected to the first switch with FC. To do so, set the FC gateway address of each of the other
switches to be managed to the FC IP address of the first switch.
The gateway address of the first switch should be set to whatever the gateway address is for the
subnet on which the first switch resides. See Table 4 (page 20).

Maintaining the 8Gb SAN Switch
The 8Gb SAN Switch does not require any regular physical maintenance. It is critical, however,
that environmental conditions, described in “Environmental requirements” (page 31), are met to
help prevent switch failure due to heat stress or improper air flow.
Installing dust covers in empty ports
The dust covers included in the 8Gb SAN Switch shipping carton (see Figure 1 (page 7)) must
be inserted in ports where SFPs are not installed. Installing dust covers ensures proper air flow and
helps reduce dust contamination of the switch.
Replacing an SFP transceiver
To remove an SFP transceiver:
1. Press and hold the cable release.
