OS Requirements HP recommends using the latest software release version to get the greatest benefit from the SAN. Mixed Fabric Environment with Different Switch Platforms Fabric OS v2.6.2, v3.1.2, and v4.2.x introduced a new switch PID format: Extended Edge PID (Format 2). Extended Edge PID is useful if you introduce a Fabric OS v4.2.x switch into a fabric consisting solely of Fabric OS v2.x/v3.x switches. Before adding a Fabric OS v4.2.x switch to such a fabric, refer to the HP StorageWorks Fabric OS 4.2.x Procedures User Guide for information on the Extended Edge PID format. Note: In order to use the Extended Edge PID format, Fabric OS v2.6.2, v3.1.2, and v4.2.x must be deployed together, as applicable, to the switches.
