Lenovo Flex System Fabric EN4093 10Gb Scalable Switch (Upgrade 1) - FOD

The part numbers for the upgrades (part numbers 49Y4798 and 88Y6037) include the following items:
•Features on Demand Activation Flyer
•Upgrade authorization letter

The base switch and upgrades feature the following default configurations:
•Part number 00FM514 is for the base physical device and includes 14 internal 10 GbE ports enabled (one to each compute node) and 10 external 10 GbE ports enabled.
•Part number 49Y4798 (Upgrade 1) can be applied on the base switch when you use 4-port adapters that are installed in each compute node. This upgrade enables 14 more internal ports, for a total of 28 ports. The upgrade also enables two 40 GbE external ports. This upgrade requires the base switch.
•Part number 88Y6037 (Upgrade 2) can be applied on top of the Upgrade 1 when you need more external bandwidth on the switch or if you need more internal bandwidth to the compute nodes with the 6-port capable adapters. The upgrade enables the remaining four external 10 GbE external ports and 14 internal 10 GbE ports for a total of 42 internal ports (three to each compute node).

With flexible port mapping, customers have more flexibility in assigning ports that they licensed on the EN4093R, which can help eliminate or postpone the need to purchase upgrades. Although the base model and upgrades still activate specific ports, flexible port mapping provides clients with the capability of reassigning ports as needed by moving internal and external 10 GbE ports, or trading off four 10 GbE ports for the use of an external 40 GbE port. This feature is valuable when you consider the flexibility with the base license and with Upgrade 1.

Note: Flexible port mapping is supported in Stacking mode with Networking OS version 8.3 or later.

With flexible port mapping, clients have the following licenses for a specific number of ports:
•Part number 00FM514 is for the base switch and it provides 24x 10 GbE port licenses that can enable any combination of internal and external 10 GbE ports and external 40 GbE ports (with the use of four 10 GbE port licenses per one 40 GbE port).
•Part number 49Y4798 (Upgrade 1) upgrades the base switch by activating 14 internal 10 GbE ports and two external 40 GbE ports, which is equivalent to adding 22 10 GbE port licenses for a total of 46x 10 GbE port licenses. Any combination of internal and external 10 GbE ports and external 40 GbE ports (with the use of four 10 GbE port licenses per one 40 GbE port) can be enabled with this upgrade. This upgrade requires the base switch.
•Part number 88Y6037 (Upgrade 2) requires the base switch and that Upgrade 1 is activated. Upgrade 2 activates all of the ports on the EN4093R, which is 42 internal 10 GbE ports, 14 external SFP+ ports, and 2 external QSFP+ ports.

Note: When Upgrade 1 and Upgrade 2 are activated, flexible port mapping is no longer used because all the ports on the EN4093R are enabled.
