Fabric OS 5.0.x support and interoperability Fabric OS 5.1.0 and later will not be supported on the HP StorageWorks Core Switch 2/64. The HP StorageWorks Core Switch 2/64 CPU and memory size are limited in their capacities to accommodate the new firmware. Attempting to download Fabric OS 5.1.0 or higher firmware to a Core Switch 2/64 model results in a "Firmwaredownload failed" error. Fabric OS 5.1.0 and later will not be supported on the Brocade 4Gb SAN Switch for HP p-Class BladeSystem, or the Brocade 4Gb SAN Switch for HP c-Class BladeSystems. These switches will remain on the Fabric OS 5.0.x firmware stream for compatibility with other blade products. Bug fixes made available for the 5.1.x stream will also be made available for the 5.0.x stream, if applicable. As with other firmware releases, the 5.0.x and 5.1.x streams will maintain full interoperability. Operating systems See http://www.hp.com/go/san for a list of supported operating systems. Switch serial numbers Identify serial numbers as follows: • Brocade 4Gb SAN Switch for HP p-Class BladeSystem: Located on side of switch module. • Brocade 4Gb SAN Switch for HP c-Class BladeSystem: Located on bottom of switch module. • HP StorageWorks Core Switch 2/64: Located on inside front of the chassis, on the wall to the left of the ports.
