The HAFM software is contained on the HP StorageWorks ha-fabric manager documentation and software CD (Part Number 516-000024-820). An upgrade kit to HAFM 07.01.00-9 is also available (Part Number 320908-B22) for owners of a licensed version of HAFM. This HAFM upgrade is also available on the following HP web site: http://h18006.www1.hp.com/storage/saninfrastructure.html. If you are using the 1U rack-mount HAFM Appliance to manage the Director or Edge Switch, the minimum HAFM version required is 07.02.00-9, which is the minimum version installed. This HAFM software is contained on the HP StorageWorks ha-fabric manager documentation and software CD (Part Number 516-000024-720). The previous minimum versions of HAFM allow you to manage Directors or Edge Switches running 08.01.00 firmware. However, to use all the new features and enhancements, you need to upgrade HAFM to 08.08.00, which runs only on the 1U rack-mount HAFM Appliance. HAFM 8.08.00 will be available in early December 2005. As an alternative, you can perform the firmware upgrade directly to the Director or Edge Switch using the switches HAFM Basic. Please contact your local HP technical resource if you need to obtain a new HAFM version or to confirm compatibility with devices in your SAN before upgrading to this firmware. For more information on upgrading software versions, see the HP StorageWorks HA-Fabric Manager user guide.

Using an IP address in this range causes the Call Home feature to function incorrectly. Zoning limits Table 3 lists the supported zoning limits for the Edge Switches and Directors.
