Issue Bundled licenses Description The HP StorageWorks MP Router with XPath OS 7.4.0 includes licenses for the following features: • Advanced Web Tools • Advanced Zoning • FCIP Tunneling • FC-FC Routing Different models of the MP Router ship with either 8 or 16 ports enabled. If you require an upgrade from 8 to 16 ports, contact your sales representative. SFP media support Duplicate domain IDs The MP Router supports only qualified SFP media. Run the sfpSupport command for a list of the qualified SFPs. When manually setting domain IDs, avoid duplicates. Under Fabric OS, when duplicate domain IDs are detected, fabrics are segmented. XPath OS handles duplicate domain IDs differently, resulting in repeated failed attempts to merge fabrics. This note does not apply to Fibre Channel Routing Services EX_Ports. Manually assigned but duplicate EX_Port domain IDs are correctly detected. Fabric OS Web Tools 4.1.1 Fabric OS Web Tools 4.1.1 does not recognize the MP Router. Manage the compatibility MP Router using Advanced Web Tools. Fabric OS Web Tools vs. XPath OS Web Tools The Fabric OS implementation of Web Tools is different from the XPath OS implementation. The Fabric OS Web Tools application runs entirely on the Fabric OS switch while presenting an HTML interface to the client browser. XPath OS Web Tools is implemented with Java objects running as plug-ins on the client browser. When a user observes switch events on an XPath OS switch in a different time zone, the events show up in the local client's time zone, Fabric OS keeps the event time base in the switch's time zone. This is a design implementation change that is to be updated in upcoming releases of XPath OS. Zoning through Advanced Web Tools Perform zoning only from the Fibre Channel switch running the latest version of firmware if fabric contains only Fibre Channel switches or Fibre Channel switches and MP Routers (router backbone fabric). Zoning can be performed from the MP Router in a backbone fabric that contains only an MP Router. If zoning is performed from the MP Router in a mixed fabric, where chassis-based systems (Directors) are present, the user does not see the correct slots and ports for selection. 12
