Optical transceivers. Only the HP 8Gb Short Wave FC SFP+ (part number AJ718A) is supported
for use in the HP StorageWorks 8/20q Fibre Channel Switch. This transceiver does not support
1 Gb/s port speed. If the port speed is configured as 1 Gb/s, the port is disabled and its state
will be changed to Downed. This can be corrected by configuring the port to a supported speed
(2 Gb/s, 4 Gb/s, 8 Gb/s, or auto-detect).
QuickTools stops responding after changing the switch's IP address. If you change the IP address
of a switch when using QuickTools to access that switch, the QuickTools session at the old IP address
stops responding. To access the switch with the new IP address using QuickTools, enter the new
IP address in a new browser window.
Java must be enabled in the browser for QuickTools to launch. If Java support or Java scripting
support is disabled in the browser, QuickTools will not launch. Ensure that Java support is enabled
and/or Java scripting support is enabled.
NOTE:
The scripting support is called Enable JavaScript in most browsers and Active scripting or Active
Web Content in Internet Explorer.
When running QuickTools, Java plug-in caching of temporary files and applets should be disabled.
Java caching can cause the wrong version of QuickTools to run. When running QuickTools, Java
plug-in caching of temporary files and applets should be disabled. If caching is enabled and a
different version of QuickTools is loaded from a switch, the version of QuickTools previously run
will load from the cache instead. Also, QuickTools could erroneously display the version number
just loaded from the switch.
NOTE:
If you have Java plug-in caching disabled and you upgrade your Java version, caching may
become enabled and will have to be disabled again.
Information from some devices connected to a switch is not displayed by QuickTools:
• Some connected device information, displayed by clicking the information icon (i) in the Details
column of the Devices Data window (accessed by clicking the Devices tab), is shown as Un-
defined or Data Unavailable. This usually occurs because the information is not provided
by the connected device. There are also some instances where the device model appears with
the Vendor name.
• Some connected device information displayed in the Vendor column of the Devices Data window
includes the device model with the Vendor name.
• The connected device information in the Target/Initiator column of the Devices Data window
is displayed as Unknown for the MSA1000, MSA1500, XP10000/12000, and
XP20000/24000.
Call Home to HP Services is now supported. Call Home to HP Services requires the 8/20q Fibre
Channel Switch to communicate with the HP Open Service Event Manager (OSEM) application.
The minimum required version of OSEM (version 1.4.5) has been released. Instructions to configure
Call Home to HP Services can be found in the HP StorageWorks 8/20q Fibre Channel Switch
installation and reference guide.
Deactivating a zoneset may cause reversion to soft zoning. Zoning is hardware enforced (hard
zoning) only when the following conditions are satisfied:
• A port/device is a member of no more than eight zones whose combined membership is 64
or less.
