On-Demand Port Activation License
On-demand ports allow customers to benefit from Cisco NX-OS Software features while initially
purchasing only a small number of activated ports on 4-Gbps Cisco MDS 9100 Series Multilayer
Fabric Switches. As needed, customers can expand switch connectivity by licensing additional
ports.
Storage Media Encryption Package
The Cisco MDS 9000 Storage Media Encryption package enables encryption of data at rest on
heterogeneous tape devices and virtual tape libraries as a transparent fabric service. Cisco SME is
completely integrated with Cisco MDS 9000 family switches and the Cisco Fabric Manager
application, enabling highly available encryption services to be deployed without rewiring or
reconfiguring SANs, and allowing them to be managed easily without installing additional
management software. Refer to the Cisco MDS 9000 Storage Media Encryption package fact
sheet for more information.
Data Mobility Manager Package
The Cisco MDS 9000 Data Mobility package enables data migration between heterogeneous disk
arrays without introducing a virtualization layer or rewiring or reconfiguring SANs. Cisco DMM
allows concurrent migration between multiple LUNs of unequal size. Rate-adjusted migration, data
verification, dual Fibre Channel fabric support, and management using Cisco Fabric Manager
provide a complete solution that greatly simplifies and eliminates most downtime associated with
data migration. Refer to the Cisco MDS 9000 Data Mobility Manager package fact sheet for more
information.
