Provide cascade connection for FC Switch Modules according to the following procedure:
1.
Check the locations of FC Switch Modules subjected to cascade connection and confirm that SFP
modules are installed on the ports for the connection.
Install SFP modules if not installed.
2.
Check the internal settings of the additional FC Switch Modules to connect.
Zoning should not be set.
If set, always disable all zoning configurations to delete them completely.
After deleting the zone configurations, save the new zone configurations by using the "cfgSave"
command.
For how to delete zone information, see "Setting zoning" in "Appendix FC
Switch Module Setting Features".
If an additional introduced FC Switch Module is made cascade connection to
the FC Switch Modules in operation, delete the zone information only in the
additional FC Switch Module to connect.
If the Zone information of the FC Switch Module used in the system operated,
system failure or data destruction may occur. The Zone information of the FC
Switch Module in the system operated must not be deleted.
The Zone information set in the FC Switch Module operated is transmitted to
the FC Switch Module subjected to cascade connection and becomes
effective.
3.
Disable FC Switch Modules to be connected by using the "switchDisable" command.
