В архиве
HPE 8/8 Base SAN Switch and 8/8 SAN Switch Family

Overview

HPE 8/8 Base SAN Switch and 8/8 SAN Switch Family

 

The 8/8 Base SAN Switch and 8/8 SAN Switch are targeted for small to medium sized enterprises and are ideal for entry-level SANs, and as an edge switch for core-to-edge SAN environments. The 8/8 Base SAN Switch and 8/8 SAN Switch provide SAN connectivity that simplifies IT management infrastructures, improves system performance, maximizes the value of virtual server deployments, and reduces overall storage costs.

 

The 8/8 SAN Switch integrates innovative hardware and software features that make it easy to deploy, manage, and integrate into a wide range of IT environments. The 8 Gbit/sec Fibre Channel 8/8 Base SAN Switch provides a simple, affordable, single-switch solution for a new, small SAN installation and connects to storage and servers only. An optional Full Fabric SAN scaling license provides connectivity to other switches. The 8/8 SAN Switch has 8 active ports and can be connected to multiple switches and scale to full fabric limits as defined in the SAN Design Guide. Both new 8 port switches provide growth options with Ports On Demand, the ability to activate additional ports in 8 port increments to a maximum of 24 ports. This provides the flexibility to start small and grow storage networks in a non-disruptive manner. In addition, organizations can choose to initially deploy 4 Gbit/sec SFPs and upgrade to 8 Gbit/sec SFP+ at a later date when necessary.

 

The 8/8 SAN Switch significantly increases performance and functionality for SANs at an entry-level price. The 8/8 SAN Switch provides auto-sensing 1, 2, 4, and 8 Gbit/sec full duplex performance to enable up to 128 Gbit/sec of uncongested throughput. Auto-sensing and speed-matching of data traffic provides interoperability with previous 1, 2, and 4 Gbit/sec devices. To provide more targeted performance, enhanced Inter-Switch Link (ISL) Trunking combines up to eight ISLs between a pair of switches into a single, logical high-speed trunk capable of up to 64 Gbit/sec of throughput. The evolutionary design provides these capabilities while consuming less than 2.5 watts of power per port for exceptional power and cooling efficiency.

 

An optional enhanced Power Pack+ software bundle can be purchased separately and includes Fabric Vision, Fabric Watch, ISL Trunking, Extended Fabric and Advanced Performance Monitor. The software bundle provides the SAN administrator with the necessary tools to proactively monitor the health and performance thresholds of the network, while also ensuring the highest levels of security, scalability and manageability. Power Pack+ software enables infrastructure management through a single-pane-of-glass.

Software Components

Frame Filtering

An ASIC based capability in the 8Gb family of switches that enables new applications and features. The switch now has the ability to "view" the first 64 bytes of the Fibre Channel frame. At this time, Frame Filtering enables advanced capabilities such as Advanced Zoning and Advanced Performance Monitoring.

Advanced Zoning

WWN Zoning and Access Control are enforced by hardware that provides the same simple administration previously enforced only with software. Administrators can organize a physical fabric into logical groups and prevent unauthorized access by devices outside the Zone.

Web Tools

Enables organizations to monitor and manage single Fibre Channel switches and small SAN fabrics. Tasks can be performed through a Java-capable Web browser from a standard laptop, desktop PC or workstation from any location within the enterprise.


 

EGM

Enhanced Group Management (EGM) is a FOS license that is included with all B-Series switches and enables multi-switch operations. It helps automate operations across multiple switches to save time and streamline repetitive operations, which are typically prone to error. EGM drives consistency across fabrics, while minimizing the risk associated with potential downtime due to configuration mismatches. EGM provides streamlined troubleshooting for more effective fabric monitoring and diagnosis. 

Both SAN Network Advisor Professional and Enterprise enable EGM functionality. Customers have EGM functionality enabled within the hardware product and need only to make the decision around which management application is right for them - SAN Network Advisor Professional, Professional Plus, or Enterprise.

Adaptive Networking

Adaptive Networking (AN) is a family of technologies which allow flexible control of traffic movement within the fabric which deliver application aware management of fabric resources. Applications may be used with multiple protocols and multiple classes of service. It includes the following features:

  • Ingress Rate Limiting:

Allows the ingress bandwidth of a port to be throttled to a rate lower than negotiated with the SAN node. This could be very useful for enterprises offering stepped levels of service and enforcing SLAs.

  • Quality of Service (QoS):

Enables zones with high, medium, and low priorities within a fabric on a zone by zone basis. This can be very useful for prioritizing array replication over MANs and WANs over less critical traffic.

  • Traffic Isolation Zones:

Defines paths through a fabric for some or all nodes. Failover allows a non-preferred path to be used if the preferred fails. TIZs use failover by default but it can be disabled if traffic should stop if a preferred path fails. TIZ can be used to manually map out traffic flows within a fabric based on application, priority, and topology.

Server Application Optimization

Server Application Optimization (SAO) improves overall application performance for physical servers and virtual machines. SAO, when deployed with B-Series Fibre Channel HBAs, extends B-Series Adaptive Networking from the B-series SAN fabric to the server infrastructure. This delivers application-level, fine-grain Quality of Service (QoS) management to the HBAs and related server applications.

 

Solution Requirements

SAO requires B-series HBA installed in the server


Software Components, Optional

SAN Switch Power Pack+ Software Bundle

Includes bundled license for:

  • Fabric Vision
  • Fabric Watch
  • Advanced Performance Monitoring
  • Extended Fabric
  • ISL Trunking

Notes: Starting with FOS 7.4.0a, Fabric Watch and Advanced Performance Monitor are replaced by MAPS and Flow Vision respectively. Both are included in Fabric Vision.


 

Fabric Vision

Fabric Vision offers innovative diagnostic, monitoring and management capabilities to help accelerate new application deployments, address SAN problems before they impact operations and reduce operational costs. It Includes

  • Monitoring and Alerting Policy Suite: A policy-based monitoring tool with pre-built rules and automation that simplifies fabric-wide threshold configuration and monitoring.
  • Flow Vision: A comprehensive tool that enables administrators to identify, monitor, and analyze specific application data flows without using taps to ensure optimized performance
  • Health and performance dashboard: A single customizable screen displayed in HPE SAN Network Advisor that contains all critical SAN information for convenient review and analysis. 

Fabric Vision will be included by default in all HPE B-series Fibre Channel switches and Directors bundled with Power Pack+ (with FOS 7.2.0a and later). In all other cases, Fabric Vision can be enabled on HPE B-series Fibre Channel switches and Directors in any one of the following ways

  • Application of the Fabric Vision LTU (FOS 7.2.0a and later)
  • Application of the Power Pack+ LTU (FOS 7.2.0a and later)
  • Upgrading existing Switch/Director loaded with Power Pack+ to FOS 7.2.0a or later
  • Upgrading existing Switch/Director loaded with both Advanced Performance Monitor (APM) and Fabric Watch (FW) licenses to FOS 7.2.0a or later

ISL Trunking

For high performance enhanced Trunking, this optional license logically groups up to eight E-ports to provide a high bandwidth trunk between two switches. Each 8 Gb switch needs its own license. The switch operating system views the trunk as a single, high bandwidth resource (up to 64 Gbit/s) when routing connections between switches. Connections are load-balanced across the individual links, which comprise the logical trunk group.

Advanced Performance Monitoring

This enabling technology helps administrators monitor and watch specific fabric metrics -- from a SID (Source ID) to a DID (Destination ID) -- so they can fine-tune and scale the fabric more efficiently. Plus, Advanced Performance Monitoring includes the ability for early warning detection of hot spots within the fabric, a powerful tool for maintaining overall balanced performance.

Notes: Advanced Performance Monitoring has been obsoleted in FOS 7.4.0 and later. Users can utilize the Fabric Vision licensed Flow Vision features for performance monitoring.

Fabric Watch

Fabric Watch enables each switch to monitor the SAN for potential faults-and automatically alert network managers to problems before they become failures. Fabric Watch tracks a variety of SAN fabric elements, events, and counters. Monitoring fabric-wide events, ports, SFPs, and environmental parameters permits early fault detection and isolation as well as performance measurement. Each switch in the SAN needs its own Fabric Watch license.

Notes: Fabric Watch has been obsoleted in FOS 7.4.0 and later. Users can migrate their Fabric Watch settings to the Fabric Vison licensed Monitoring and Performance Suite (MAPS) prior to upgrading.

Extended Fabric

Extends all of the scalability, reliability, and performance benefits of Fibre Channel Storage Area Networks (SANs) beyond the native 10 km distance specified by the Fibre Channel standard.


 

SAN Network Advisor Professional

HPE SAN Network Advisor Professional is a management application available at no-charge and comes with B-series SAN Switches and:

  • Allows management of up to two  Fabric OS (FOS) fabric (up to a 300 switch ports and 1000 devices) at a time
  • Performs group switch management beyond the scope of Web Tools
  • Does not offer management of the SN8000B 8-Slot or DC SAN Backbone Directors

It is targeted for SMB customers that use FOS based SAN fabrics and require a management solution for smaller SANs based on fabrics. 

SMB customers that initially start off with SAN Network Advisor Professional and have a small SAN environment may over time feel the need for an enterprise-class product (SAN Network Advisor Professional+ or SAN Network Advisor Enterprise) as their environments start to grow in size and complexity, and as they start to uptake more enterprise-class functionality (such as Fibre Channel Routing, FCIP, etc.). A non-disruptive upgrade path is available from SAN Network Advisor Professional to SAN Network Advisor Professional+ or SAN Network Advisor Enterprise.

SAN Network Advisor Enterprise and Professional+

HPE SAN Network Advisor Enterprise and Professional+ are the enterprise-class products that support FOS products as well as FOS and M-EOS products together. SAN Network Advisor Enterprise provides complete SN8000B 8-Slot Director and DC SAN Backbone Director management including enterprise-class features/environments such as FICON, Fibre Channel Routing, FCIP, adaptive networking, etc while HPE SAN Network Advisor Professional+ provides the same feature set except for support for the SN8000B 8-Slot Director, DC SAN Backbone Director, and FICON.

 

HPE SAN Network Advisor Enterprise delivers unprecedented scalability, up to 100 fabrics and 15,000 switch ports, while HPE SAN Network Advisor Professional+ scales to 36 SAN Fabrics and 2560 switch ports. To accommodate growth, there is an upgrade available to SAN Network Advisor Enterprise from SAN Network Advisor Professional Plus.

 

Both offerings provide brand-new features including Adaptive Networking features for quality of service, ingress rate limiting and traffic isolation zones.

Full Fabric License for 8/8 SAN Switch

Provides connectivity from zero e-ports to full fabric scaling. Please see the following web site for further information on supported configurations and SAN scalability: https://h20566.www2.hpe.com/hpsc/doc/public/display?docId=c00403562

HPE 8/8 8 port upgrade license

Optional 8 port increments on demand licenses for additional connectivity. Enables the 8, 16, and 24 universal (E, F and FL) port progression to scale up.

 

HPE Smart SAN for 3PAR

HPE Smart SAN, optional software for HPE 3PAR, makes end-to-end SAN configuration and management simple and reduces the probability of errors through automation. It is an application embedded in SAN components (array, hosts and switches) that enables 3PAR arrays to orchestrate configuration, settings and policies across the SAN. Smart SAN is only supported with B-series Switches, HPE Fibre Channel Adapters (HBAs) and 3PAR storage. HPE Smart SAN for 3PAR through its Target Driven Peer Zoning (TDPZ) feature enables customers to automate peer zoning, resulting in the creation of fewer zones and enables configuration of zones in minutes and not in hours. Through automation, it reduces the probability of errors and potential downtime.  Additional information can be found here: http://www.hpe.com/storage/3par

Notes:

- Supports B-series Brocade 16/8Gb FC switches with FOS 7.4.0a or later.
