Table notes:
1
All zoning and fabric operations in a fabric with products running older versions of Fabric OS
should be performed using interfaces to products running the latest version of Fabric OS. This is
important for Brocade 3xxx series switches that do not support zoning configuration for newer
products.
2
Other M-EOS models can participate in a fabric with Fabric OS 6.3, but cannot be directly
attached via an E_Port to any products running Fabric OS 6.3. For information about HP support
of interoperable fabrics, see HP Merging Fabrics Based on M-series and B-series Fibre Channel
Switches Application Notes, available at http://www.hp.com.
3
HP strongly recommends that M-EOS products operate with the most recent version of M-EOS
that supports interoperability. M-EOS 9.9.5 is the only version that has been fully qualified for
interoperability with Fabric OS 6.3. For information about HP support of interoperable fabrics,
see HP Merging Fabrics Based on M-series and B-series Fibre Channel Switches Application Notes,
available at http://www.hp.com.
4
When routing to an M-EOS edge fabric using frame redirection, the fabric must have a Fabric
OS-based product in order to configure the frame redirection zone information.
5
When directly attached to a host or target that is part of an encryption flow.
6
Products operating with Fabric OS versions earlier than 5.3.1b or 6.1.0e cannot participate in
a logical fabric that is using XISLs (in the base fabric).
7
These platforms cannot be directly attached to hosts or targets for encryption flows.
8
SANRouters 1620 and 2640 should not be used with XPath or Fabric OS-based routing (FCR)
for connections to the same edge fabric.
4/256 SAN Director blade support
Fabric OS 6.3.2e is fully qualified and supports only the Director blades listed in Table 2 (page
15).
