Description: Fibre Channel Switch Location.

The following values are defined:

other(1) The agent is unable to determine if the switch is internal or external to the storage system chassis.

internal(2) The switch is located in the storage system chassis.

external(3) The switch is located outside the storage system chassis.

What is cpqFcSwitchLocation?

This enumerated value indicates whether the Fibre Channel switch is located inside or outside the storage system chassis, as other, internal, or external. An admin uses this to know whether to look inside the storage system enclosure or in a separate external unit when physically locating the switch. For example, external(3) tells the technician the switch is a standalone unit outside the storage chassis rather than an embedded blade.
