The minimum Fabric OS version requirements are: 2.6.2d, 3.2.0a, and 4.4.0d. 4/256 SAN Director-Proxy switches If you are using a Fabric OS 4.x switch as in API or SMI-S proxy to manage a 5.1.x switch, you must be running Fabric OS 4.4.0d, as a minimum requirement. Fabric OS-diagnostics backport test The backport test passes only in a) a pure SAN Director 2/128 Director or b) a SAN Director 2/128 system with no FC4-16 blades and under Option 5. Do not run backport tests in any configuration other than the two listed above; use the minicycle test instead.
