Maintaining the Switch The HP StorageWorks Core Switch 2/64 does not require any regular physical maintenance and is designed to minimize the chance of failure, including field-replaceable units (FRUs) and diagnostic tests. For information on obtaining license keys or the most current technical support information about this product, visit the HP Web site at http://www.hp.com/support/coreswitch264. Field-Replaceable Units (FRUs) The power supplies, port cards, CP cards, and blower assemblies can all be replaced in the field without the use of special tools. The switch can continue operating during most replacements. Fabric Watch alarms can be configured for each FRU. For more information, refer to the hp StorageWorks fabric watch user's guide. Performing Diagnostic Tests Diagnostic tests are provided to help troubleshoot the hardware and the firmware. The diagnostic tests provided on the switch include tests of internal connections and circuitry, and SFPs and fiber optic cables in use. The tests are implemented by command, either through a telnet session or through a terminal set up for a serial connection to the switch. Some tests require the ports to be connected to each other by external cables, to allow diagnostics to verify the serializer/deserializer interface and to test the attached SFP and cable. Run all diagnostic tests at link speeds of 1 Gbps and 2 Gbps. For information about diagnostic tests and how to run them, refer to the hp StorageWorks diagnostic and system error message reference. 66 getting started and general reference guide
