mix switch firmware versions in a SAN. It is a best practice to uniformly
upgrade all switches in the SAN.
Multiple-path support
For an HP-UX system with EVA4000/6000/8000 storage HP recommends the installation of
multipathing software on each host to achieve high-availability, multipath capability.
HP-UX pvLinks native multipathing solutions are supported. For more information about pvLinks, see your
HP-UX operating system documentation.
Single-path support
HP-UX servers require a single Fibre Channel adapter (FCA) to support single-path mode.
NOTE:
Do not use single-path mode in mission-critical environments.
