1
All zoning and fabric operations performed in a fabric with products running older versions of Fabric
OS should be done via interfaces to products running the latest versions of Fabric OS. This is particularly
important for HP StorageWorks SAN Switches 2/16, 2/8–EL, and 2/16–EL, which do not support
zoning configuration for newer products.
2
Frame reduction is supported only in M-EOS fabrics running in McDATA Fabric Mode (interopmode
2 on Fabric OS-based platforms). McDATA Open Fabric Mode is not supported.
3
Other M-EOS models may patticipate in a fabric with Fabric OS 6.1.1b, but may not be directly
attached via E_Port to any products running Fabric OS 6.1.1b. The McDATA ED-5000 director may
not participate in a mixed M-EOS/FOS fabric.
