Version 6.4.0c NOTE: This software conforms to the Fibre Channel (FC) standards and accepted engineering practices and procedures. Description Fabric OS 6.4.0 introduced support for the following new hardware. This support is carried forward with 6.4.0c: • HP StorageWorks DC SAN Director 64-Port 8Gb - HP 4400 | HP StorageWorks Fabric OS 6.4.0c Release Notes (5697-0703, September 2 - Page 4
Fabric OS and later installed, the following default characteristics of the switch were revised: • Virtual fabrics are enabled by default. See the Fabric OS Administrator's Guide for 6.4.0 for in- formation on the configuration of VF. The following switches support virtual fabrics: • DC SAN Backbone - HP 4400 | HP StorageWorks Fabric OS 6.4.0c Release Notes (5697-0703, September 2 - Page 5
