HP StorageWorks
Power Pack
Specially priced software bundle. Includes: Fabric Watch, ISL Trunking, and Advanced Performance Monitor. Optional
HP StorageWorks
ISL Trunking
High performance enhanced trunking: Optional license logically groups up to four E-ports to provide a high bandwidth trunk between two switches. Each 4 Gb switch needs its own license. The switch operating system views the trunk as a single, high bandwidth resource (up to 32 Gb) when routing connections between switches. Connections are load-balanced across the individual links, which comprise the logical trunk group. Optional
HP StorageWorks
Advanced Performance Monitor
This enabling technology provides the ability to monitor and watch specific fabric metrics from a SID (Source ID) to a DID (Destination ID), creating a method to be able to fine-tune and scale your fabric more efficiently. Advanced Performance Monitoring also allows the ability to have an early warning detection of hot spots within the fabric providing a powerful tool for maintaining overall balanced performance. Optional
HP StorageWorks
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. Optional
HP StorageWorks Fabric Manager Software Fabric Manager is a highly scalable, Java-based application that manages multiple switches and multiple fabrics in real time, helping SAN administrators with SAN configuration, monitoring, dynamic provisioning, and daily management of SANs. SAN administrators gain rapid access to critical SAN information across multiple personality fabrics, including both Fabric OS SANs and enhanced Secure Fabric OS SANs. Optional
