7. Enter the switchEnable command to re-enable the switch. Activating ports on demand The SAN Switch 2/32 can be purchased with 16 or 32 licensed ports. As your needs increase, you can activate unlicensed ports (up to the maximum of 32 ports) by purchasing and installing the HP Ports on Demand optional, licensed product. The 4/32 SAN Switch can be purchased with 16 or 32 licensed ports. As your needs increase, you can activate unlicensed ports (up to the maximum of 32 ports) by purchasing and installing the Ports on Demand optionally licensed product. The 4/8 and 4/16 SAN Switch can be purchased with 8 ports and no E_Port, 8 ports with full-fabric access (4/8 SAN Switch and 4/8 SAN Switch Base) and 16 ports with full-fabric access (4/16 SAN Switch). If you purchase the 4/8 SAN Switch with 8 ports enabled, you can activate unlicensed ports in 4-port increments up to 16 ports by purchasing and installing the HP StorageWorks 4-Port Upgrade License. You can also purchase an E-port license upgrade if your switch does not yet support full-fabric access. Table 5 shows the ports that are enabled by default and the ports that can be enabled after you install the first and second Ports on Demand licenses for each switch type. Table 5 Ports enabled with Ports on Demand licenses Enabled ports 4/8 SAN Switch or 4/16 SAN Switch SAN Switch 4/32 4/64 SAN 4/32B SAN Switch Switch Ports enabled without POD license (default) 0-7 0-15 0-31 0-15 Ports 8-11 enabled when you install first POD license Ports 12-15 enabled when you install second POD license 16-23 24-31 32-47 16-23 48-63 24-31 Ports on Demand is ready to be unlocked in the switch firmware. The license key might be part of the licensed software supplied with your switch, or you can purchase the license key separately. You might need to generate a license key from a transaction key supplied with your purchase. If so, see "How to generate or activate a license key" on page 37. By default, ports 0 through 15 are activated on the SAN Switch 4/32. Each Port upgrade license activates the next group of eight ports in numerical order. Before installing a license key, you must insert transceivers in the ports to be activated. Remember to insert the transceivers in the lowest group of inactive port numbers first. For example, if only 16 ports are currently active and you are installing one 8-Port Upgrade License key, make sure to insert the transceivers in ports 16 through 23. If you later install a second license key, insert the transceivers in ports 24 through 31. For details on inserting transceivers, see the hardware installation guide that shipped with your switch. After you install a license key, you must enable the ports to complete the activation. You can do so without disrupting switch operation by issuing the portEnable command on each port. Alternatively, you can also disable and re-enable the switch to activate ports. 42 Performing basic configuration tasks
