Important Information Considerations for Downgrading the Version of Firmware Directors and edge switches are not required to be offline before performing a firmware downgrade operation. Limitations to downgrades are clearly identified if there are any limitations to performing the operation. Before downgrading firmware, it is highly recommended that you back up the edge switch or director configuration in the event that a failure should occur. Refer to the switch or director Product Manager user guide for more information. Embedded Web Server (EWS) also provides an option to print or save product configuration to a file. Refer to the HP StorageWorks Embedded Web Server User Guide for more information. Downgrading directly to a version prior to 04.00.00 from Version 05.01.00-24 is not allowed. To downgrade to a version before 04.00.00, you must first downgrade to Version 04.YY.ZZ. Note: The Director 2/140 and Edge Switch 2/24 cannot be downgraded below Version 04.01.00. Downgrading directly to a version prior to 02.00.00 from Version 04.YY.ZZ is not allowed. To downgrade to a version before 02.00.00, you must first downgrade to Version 02.YY.ZZ. Firmware downgrades should not be performed using EWS and Microsoft® Internet Explorer Version 5.00.3315.1000x. If this operation is performed, the download operation may not complete and may eventually time-out leaving the switch with the previous version of firmware. Open Trunking Feature is Not Available in Current Release The Open Trunking feature is not available in Firmware Version 05.01.00-24. Open Trunking feature will be available in a future release. Zoning is Disabled by Default The default zone on the Edge Switch 2/24, Edge Switch 2/32, Director 2/64, and Director 2/140 is disabled by default. Zoning must be configured in order for any devices connected to the switches to communicate. HA-Fabric Manager Release Notes 9
