Maintaining the 8Gb SAN Switch
The 8Gb SAN Switch does not require any regular physical maintenance.
However, it is critical that environmental conditions, described in
are met to help prevent switch failure due to heat stress or improper air flow.
Installing dust covers in empty ports
The dust covers included in the 8Gb SAN Switch shipping carton (see
) must be inserted in
ports where SFPs are not installed. Installing dust covers ensures proper air flow and helps reduce
dust contamination of the switch.
