Prerequisites for installing and using firmware 09.02.00 Consider the following prerequisites for firmware 09.02.00: • If you are using HAFM, firmware 09.02.00 requires HAFM 07.01.00 or later. This minimum version lets you manage Edge Switches and Directors running 09.02.00 firmware. However, to use the new features and enhancements added to firmware version 06.xx.xx and later, upgrade HAFM to 08.09.01, which only runs on the HAFM Appliance (see Table 3). HAFM is not able to configure the McDATA 4 Gb/s Intrepid 6000 QPM when installed into a Director 2/64. The QPM can be configured using HAFM Basic or CLI. McDATA EFCM 9.0 or later is capable of configuring the McDATA 4 Gb/s Intrepid 6000 QPM when installed into a Director 2/64. HP will be releasing support for EFCM soon. • Check with HP Customer Support for the latest shipping version of HAFM. HAFM should be at the minimum level before installing the new firmware. • If you are using HAFM to upgrade firmware, an Edge Switch 2/24 must be managed with HAFM 08.08.00 or higher before upgrading to firmware 08.xx.xx or later. If you upgrade to firmware 08.xx.xx or later using an HAFM release earlier than 08.08.00, the firmware upgrade may fail.
