Firmware Summary Table B-6 E/OS versus E/OSn and E/OSi - Management-Related Differences (Continued) Feature E/OS 7.0 E/OSn 6.0 E/OSi 4.6 FICON Management Server (FMS) PFE key install and enable behavior FMS is auto-enabled upon PFE installation. Management style automatically changes to FICON. When PFE is installed, the user must explicitly enable FMS. Management style does not automatically change to FICON. FMS PFE key not supported. Saving a user-defined PDCM array through EFCM Saving a user-defined PDCM Cannot save a user-defined array through EFCM supported. PDCM array through EFCM. FICON management style (with associated PDCM array) not supported. Saving a PDCM array after reset (single CTP card) No limitation. When a single-CTP card director is reset, the PDCM array is saved. When Active = Saved is not set and a single-CTP card Intrepid 10000 Director is reset, the PDCM array is not saved. This does not apply to a redundant CTP card configuration. FICON management style (with associated PDCM array) not supported. Full volatility support Full volatility supported through PFE key. Full volatility always supported because the Intrepid 10000 Director does not persistently store data frame contents on any FRU. Full volatility not supported. Port configuration behavior as a function of port module type (directors) Display of Fibre Channel link speed Port speed configuration Configuration set based on last inserted port card type (FPM, UPM, or XPM). If a new port card is different in type from the last inserted card, then all port-level parameters for the new card are reset to default. Parameters include port type, transmission speed, BB_Credit, block or unblock, preferred path, allow or prohibit, and port swap settings. Configuration set independent of port card type, except transmission speed and BB_Credit are configured and stored independently for 2.1250 and 10.2000 Gbps ports (user specifies port number and type). Port-level parameters are not reset to default when a new port card is inserted. Port configuration behavior as a function of port module type not applicable. Fibre Channel link speed always Fibre Channel link speed not displayed, regardless of switch displayed when Intrepid 10000 state. Director is disabled. Configured link speed displayed at Element Manager application main window and actual link speed displayed at Port Configuration dialog box, regardless of switch state. Ports are automatically set offline or offline and not required to be blocked to set transmission speed. Ports required to be blocked (offline) to set transmission speed. Ports are not required to be set offline to set transmission speed. Firmware Summary B-7
