NOTE:

The DPOD feature does not consider disabled ports as candidates for license assignments. You can persistently disable an otherwise viable port to cause it not to come online and preserve a license assignment for future use.

Verifying the conﬁguration

After setting initial parameters, verify the conﬁguration as follows:

1.Check the LEDs to verify that all components are functional.

For information about LED patterns, refer to Interpreting LED activity.

2.Type switchshow to get information about the switch and port status.

3.Type fabricshow to get general information about the fabric.

Backing up the conﬁguration

HP recommends regular backups to ensure that a recent conﬁguration is available, if required. For speciﬁc instructions on how to back up the conﬁguration, refer to the latest version of the HP StorageWorks Fabric OS administrator guide.

To back up the switch conﬁguration to an FTP server, type configupl and follow the prompts. The configupl command copies the switch conﬁguration to the server, making it available for downloading to a replacement switch, if necessary.
