only 12 ports out of 24SAN switch are enabled with POD licensed, want to have POD licenseonall ports

[Chandrashekhar_Chavan]

We have 12 numbers of BL460C installed on C7000 Blade enclosure, The Netapp storage is connected on external port of Brocade 24/4GB FC san switch on interconnect slot 3 & 4. while creating zones on Brocade san switch,It was showing only 8 servers instead of 12. I than release the pod licenses from free ports & reserved them on the used ports, after I could see all the wwpn number of blades. The POD license status shows " all the 12 licenses are in use, there is no free license available. Now I cannot see the wwpn number of storage which is connected on port 17 & 18. & I want to create zones to assign LUNS to servers. How do i enable all the external ports, Do I need to install POD license, if yes How can I do it?

The productnumber you need to buy is AE373A which is a 12 port upgrade for the Brocade interconnect switches.
