HP StorageWorks 2/140 FW 05.02.00 and SW 07.01.00 and 07.02.00 HP StorageWorks - Page 18

Important Information Using the Same Firmware All switches and directors in the same fabric should have the same firmware level installed-whether 1 Gbps or 2 Gbps capable. The only exception is the recently released HP StorageWorks Edge Switch 2/12, which currently has an interim firmware version specific for the Edge Switch 2/12, Version 05.05.00-12. This firmware cannot be used for any other edge switch or director. This interim version is compatible with firmware Versions 05.01.00-24 and 05.02.00-13 used for the rest of the M-Series Fabric products. The next major firmware release will be a common firmware version for all the M-Series Fabric products. Reinstalling Feature Licenses Feature Licenses (or keys) must be reinstalled after performing a factory reset on a director to regain use of the licensed features (e.g., SANtegrity Binding). Disconnecting the Null Modem Cable Always log out and disconnect the Null Modem cable from the serial maintenance port when not in use or when the switch is reset. CTP Controls Port Lights Port lights on the edge switch and director products are controlled by the CTP functionality. Certain activities such as FW updates, IPLing the CTP, or switching over to the backup CTP (Director) can cause these port lights to extinguish momentarily until control is reasserted by the CTP. The actual FC traffic is not affected during these times. 18 Director Release Notes
