SOFTWARE, FABRICWARE, AND SAN-OS UPDATES

Customers can now receive updates faster and more efficiently via electronic download by using

HP Software Update Manager (SUM). This is a feature available as part of the support

agreement available online within the HP IT Resource Center (ITRC) at http://www.itrc.hp.com/.

SUM provides online access to view support entitlements, manage release notification profiles,

and download available new software updates as they are available.

Customers with a software support agreement can:

1. Register with the ITRC at http://www.itrc.hp.com to obtain an ITRC User ID. This

step is performed once per user.

2. Link support agreements to an ITRC User ID at

http://www.itrc.hp.com/service/entitlements/linkSupportAgreement.do

The System Handle(s) or SAID (Service Agreement Identifier), as identified in

support agreements is required. This step is performed once per support

agreement.

3. Navigate to “software update manager” at

http://www.itrc.hp.com/service/sum/home.do to manage the software updates for

the support agreements linked to your ITRC user ID.

Although software, FabricWare, and SAN-OS images will continue to be located on

http://www.hp.com for a limited period of time, HP SUM will be the preferred method for

obtaining updates, and will eventually be the only method.

Consult the appropriate Cisco MDS release notes for instructions on how to determine the current

SAN-OS or FabricWare version on your switch.

HP strongly recommends upgrading all fabric switches to the latest supported SAN-OS and

FabricWare versions. All switches in the SAN must be running the same version of SAN-OS in

7 MDS Multilayer Director & Multilayer Fabric Switches Release Notes

ADDITIONAL MOUNTING REQUIREMENTS

C-series Fabric Switches can be installed in all HP standard racks. Please note the following

restrictions:

Side-Rail Rack-Mounted Options

All side-rail rack-mounted options must have a minimum of four (4) inch clearance distance

above or below the switch chassis for the C-series MDS 9500 Series Multilayer Directors and

MDS 9200 Series Multilayer Fabric Switches. Side-rail rack-mount options include HP zero-U

options, KVM switches and power distribution units (PDUs). The minimum distance between the

top of the switch to the bottom of any side rail rack mounted option, or the bottom of the switch

and the top of the side rail rack mounted option must be at least four (4) inches.

HP Rack Cabinet Support

For standard HP Rack Cabinets with closed side panels, you must have at least two-and-one-half

inches (2.5 in.) (6.4 cm) of air space between the rack walls and the MDS 9200 and 950xchassis

air vents. For the MDS 9513, you must have at least four inches (4.0 in.) (10.16 cm) of air flow

between the rack walls and the director. If the air space does not meet these minimum

requirements, remove the rack side panels.

The HP 10842 (800mm wide, 42U) Rack Cabinet is ideally used as a networking rack

accommodating primarily switching equipment. It can also be used as a server/switch rack. The

10842 rack is a wider version of the 42U 9000 series rack at 800 mm/31.3 in width. This added

width provides approximately eight additional inches of room outside of the internal mounting

rails, which can be used for cabling.

Other Types of Cabinets

When the C-series MDS 9500 Family Multilayer Directors and MDS 9200 Family Multilayer

Fabric Switches are installed in racks other than those mentioned above, including any open sided

racks, the following guidelines must be followed to prevent overheating:

Closed-sided racks must have at least two-and-one-half inches (2.5 in.) (6.4 cm) of air

space between the walls and the 9200 and 950xchassis air vents. The MDS 9513 must

have at least four inches (4.0 in.) (10.16 cm) of air flow between the rack walls and the

director.

Open-sided racks (for example, racks commonly used for telecommunications

equipment), with switches installed side by side must have at least six inches (6 in.) (15.2

cm) of air space between two different switch chassis

All rack types must have nothing to obstruct the cooling vents with side mounted options

Cabling

When cabling any C-series product, the front door on all HP standard racks should be removed to

allow for adequate cable space; this will ensure a safe bending radius on all fibre channel cables.

This is especially pertinent in high port density (Director) installations. Please consult the

relevant Cisco Hardware Installation Guide for further information.

8 MDS Multilayer Director & Multilayer Fabric Switches Release Notes

SERIAL PORT

You must use the serial interface to configure a switch IP address. Refer to the Cisco MDS 9000

Family Configuration Guide or Cisco MDS 9020 Fabric Switch Configuration Guide for

instructions on how to connect the serial port to a host machine.

INITIAL INSTALLATION RECOMMENDATIONS /

REQUIREMENTS

The C-series MDS 9000 Family of switches does not automatically allow SAN connectivity for

the first-time, out-of-the box power up. For more comprehensive initial setup information,

please refer to the Cisco documentation found at http://www.cisco.com.

Note: The setup dialog prompts for all of the necessary settings.

The following steps must be taken during the first-time setup:

I. To enable all ports on the switch, set the ports to noshut – by default, all switch ports are set

to shut

During the setup command:

Configure default switchport interface state (shut/noshut) [shut]: noshut

II. To allow traffic flow to all members of a default zone, set the default zone to permit

connectivity – by default, zoning is set to deny

During the setup command:

Configure default zone policy (permit/deny) [deny]: permit

III. If upgrading from SAN-OS 1.3(4a) or earlier, enable FCID persistence for all VSANs on

the switch – FCID persistence is enabled by default with SAN-OS 2.0(1b) and newer.

Note: FCID persistence is not supported on the MDS 9020.

Enable persistent FCID for each VSAN using the CLI dialog as follows:

switch# config terminal

switch(config)# fcdomain fcid persistent vsan 1

switch(config)# exit

switch# copy running-config startup-config

In this example, the number 1 at the end of the line is the name of the default VSAN ID. If

additional VSANs were created, you must repeat this command for each additional VSAN.

For example, if you added two more VSANs with ID numbers 2 and 3, you must enter the

following commands:

switch# config terminal

switch(config)# fcdomain fcid persistent vsan 2

switch(config)# fcdomain fcid persistent vsan 3

switch(config)# exit

switch# copy running-config startup-config

9 MDS Multilayer Director & Multilayer Fabric Switches Release Notes

IV. Enable In-Order Delivery of Frame

During a steady-state environment, the hardware and software architecture of the C-series

MDS 9000 Family prevents out-of-order (OOO) frame distribution from occurring. If the

fabric encounters a failure, some devices may not be able to handle any OOO frames. For

this reason, HP requires in-order delivery (IOD) be enabled for all switches. There is a

switch setting to enable in-order of frames during fabric failure.

Note: IOD feature is not supported on the MDS 9020.

Using the Management Console or Telnet to Enable IOD

Use the following procedure to enable in-order delivery (IOD) of frames with management

console or telnet:

1. Log into the switch using either the management console or telnet

2. Enter your network-admin privileged account by entering your login name and

password

switch login: admin

Password: <admin password>

3. Enter the following:

switch# show in-order-guarantee

4. The response shows whether or not in-order delivery is enabled

If the display shows inorder delivery: guaranteed, in-order delivery of frames is

enabled and no other steps are required

If the display shows inorder delivery: not guaranteed, in-order delivery of frames is

disabled; continue to the next step

5. Enter into the configuration mode by entering the following command:

switch# config terminal

6. Enter the following command to set in-order delivery of frames:

switch(config)# in-order-guarantee

switch(config)# exit

7. Enter the following command to verify that in-order delivery is enabled:

switch# show in-order-guarantee

You should see the following response for all VSANs:

inorder delivery: guaranteed

8. Copy the running configuration into the startup configuration by entering the

following:

switch# copy running-config startup-config

Note: The running configuration overwrites the startup configuration.

IOD must be enabled for any additional VSANs created.

10 MDS Multilayer Director & Multilayer Fabric Switches Release Notes

Refer to the Cisco MDS 9000 Family Fabric Manager Switch Configuration Guide to

enable IOD using Device/Fabric Manager.

FABRIC MANAGER & DEVICE MANAGER GUI SETUP

The optional Cisco Fabric/Device Manager GUI (graphical user interface) is a Java application.

The Fabric/Device Manager installation process is based on requirements for installing Java Web

Start. Refer to the Cisco MDS 9000 Fabric Manager Release Notes for system requirements and

installation instructions.

To install Device Manager, use a web browser to make an http:// connection to the IP address of a

C-series switch.

Note: Device Manager cannot be installed from the MDS 9020.

Starting with SAN-OS 3.2(1a), Fabric Manager is no longer embedded in the SAN-OS software.

Fabric Manager is available from a CD-ROM or provided by HP in the SAN-OS image bundle.

For additional information on how to install Fabric Manager refer to the “Installation of Cisco

MDS SAN-OS and Fabric Manager” section in the Cisco MDS 9000 Family Fabric Manager

Configuration Guide.

Starting with SAN-OS 3.3(1a), Fabric Manager Update Installer is provided by HP in the SAN-

OS image bundle. The installer allows the user to upgrade an existing system running Fabric

Manager Standalone or Fabric Manager Server without requiring the Management Software and

Documentation CD.

The following is an example of how to upgrade Windows Fabric Manager using the Fabric

Manager Update Installer.

1. Copy the Installer jar file to your Fabric Manager system

2. At the command prompt, locate the directory where the jar file is placed

3. Type the following command:

java.exe –Xmx512m –jar <jar file>

4. Follow the onscreen instructions provided in the Fabric Manager upgrade software

setup wizard

Refer to the Cisco MDS 9000 Family Fabric Manager Configuration Guide for additional

installation instructions.

Note: The MDS 9020 currently runs FabricWare 2.1(3); HP recommends using the latest supported

Fabric/Device Manager when managing this switch via the GUI.
