or selecting the parent window while a child window was still open. If this occurred (a child window
got behind a parent window) the parent appeared nonresponsive until the child window was
closed.
• Selective restore of Network Properties restored only Syslog information.
• When the Configuration Wizard dialog was chosen to change the IP address of the switch and
the change was applied, it appeared to the user that the change was made successfully. Connection
to the switch using the new IP address failed, however, because the address was not actually
changed.

Installation instructions

For information about installing these products, see the HP StorageWorks 8/20q Fibre Channel Switch
quick start installation instructions, HP StorageWorks 8Gb Simple SAN Connection Kit quick start
instructions, and other documentation available on the HP website: http://www.hp.com/go/8Gb-SSC.
Important information
This section provides important information about the 8/20q Fibre Channel Switch.
• Simple SAN Connection Manager Support. The Simple SAN Connection Manager (SSCM) applic-
ation version 2.10 or later can manage 8/20q Fibre Channel switches with active TR_Ports. SSCM
displays the remote fabric as a grayed-out switch, but SSCM cannot manage or discover remote
switches or devices in the remote fabric. SSCM version 2.0 and earlier versions do not support
the management of fabrics that include 8/20q Fibre Channel switches with active TR_Ports and
may disrupt communication between the 8/20q Fibre Channel switch and the remote fabric. If
you intend to manage the SAN using SSCM, be sure to use SSCM version 2.10 or later, or do
not configure TR_Ports.
Connection may not recover after switch port goes offline. Connection may not recover after a
•
switch port is set offline and back online when connected to an HP StorageWorks 81E PCle FC
HBA (LPe12000 HBA) or HP StorageWorks 82E PCle FC HBA (LPe12002 HBA) for hosts running
VMware 3.5.0. To avoid this, do not include Virtual Machine PWWN in zoning, or use new
Emulex driver version elx_7.4.0.39. This driver will be available on the Emulex website and on
the VMware website. It is also expected to be released with ESX 3.5.0 U4 as the inbox driver,
and be available as an Asynchronous Update CD for ESX 3.5.0 U3.
• HBA may not discover storage target on remote fabric. An Emulex—based HBA running on SuSE
9 may not always find targets on remote fabrics after booting the server. To avoid this, use new
Emulex driver version 8.0.16.40_p2.
The affected HBAs include:
• HP StorageWorks 81E PCle FC HBA
• HP StorageWorks 82E PCle FC HBA
• HP StorageWorks FC2143
• HP StorageWorks FC2243
• HP StorageWorks FC2142SR
• HP StorageWorks FC2242SR
• HP 4Gb HBA for HP c-Class BladeSystem
• HP Emulex-based BL20p Fibre Channel Mezz HBA
• HP Emulex-based BL25/30/35/45p Fibre Channel Mezz HBA
• Management and configuration of MSA2000fc storage. SSCM version 2.0 or later is required for
support of management and configuration of MSA2000fc storage.
