Notes hp StorageWorks C-series Fabric Switches for SAN-OS 3.3(4a) and FabricWare 2.1(3) This document provides additional information about the MDS 9020 Fabric Switch, the MDS 9100 Series Fabric Switches, the MDS 9200 Series Multilayer Fabric Switches, and the MDS 9500 Series Multilayer Directors - HP AJ732A | HP StorageWorks C-Series Fabric Switches for SAN-OS 3.3(4a) and Fabr - Page 2
for instructions on how to determine the current SAN-OS or FabricWare version on your switch. HP strongly recommends upgrading all fabric switches to the latest supported SAN-OS and FabricWare versions. All switches in the SAN must be running the same version of SAN-OS in 2 MDS Multilayer Director - HP AJ732A | HP StorageWorks C-Series Fabric Switches for SAN-OS 3.3(4a) and Fabr - Page 3
FICON is supported with SAN-OS on the MDS 9000 series switches. For supported versions and configurations refer to the SPOCK website at http://www.hp.com/storage/spock. You must sign up for an HP Passport to be granted access. 3 MDS Multilayer Director & Multilayer Fabric Switches Release Notes - HP AJ732A | HP StorageWorks C-Series Fabric Switches for SAN-OS 3.3(4a) and Fabr - Page 4
