现有一san架构,目前工作正常,但是,H16console不停的报错
Fabric size (6) exceeds supported configuration (4). Fabric limit timer (1) started from 0.

BladeFCSW1----------H16--------F16
                         |
                          |
BladeFCSW2----------B16--------F16

准备在现有基础上再加两台B16,分别级联在F16上,

BladeFCSW1----------H16--------F16------B16
                         |
                          |
BladeFCSW2----------B16--------F16-----B16

除H16的license是4Domain,其余全部都是 Full Fabric.
打ibm 800告知H16有 4domain限制,但是没解释B16是否能级联到F16上去.
guide 这样描述
For both H08 and H16 switch models, the optional Full Fabric Activation feature enables the maximum supported E-Port Inter-Switch Link (ISL) capability, while the Extended Fabric activation feature increases buffer credits to support disaster tolerance solutions. Additional optional functions include Fabric Manager v4 Maximum Supported Domains, Remote Switch Activation, Performance Bundle Activation, and Advanced Security.

Base switch with single (Model H08) or dual (Model H16) power supply and fixed fans, 1U, 2 Gb auto negotiate, H08: 2 domain limit, H16: 4 domain limit, Webtools & Advanced Zoning (standard)

是否购买Full Fabic license就可以解决这个问题?
暂时不考虑断开中间的线，断开工程较大。

另 刀片的交换模块只是级联，但并无访问数据

看热闹的坚决打压...

买吧，买东西比较省事

You can temporarily connect the five switch in the fabric but it will only last for 60 days (if I remember correctly) then it will be segmented from the fabric.

估计就是这，所有现有不出问题，60天后可能就是一次灾难...以前的san比较小，大家都没注意过这个问题。

真没注意过这个问题.

感觉级联起来很复杂哦       希望继续关注
