Important notes

The following sections provide important information regarding Fabric OS 3.2.1c.

Mixed fabric environment with different switch platforms

Fabric OS 2.6.2, 3.1.2, and 4 .2.x introduced a new switch PID format: Extended Edge PID (format

2). Extended Edge PID is useful if you introduce a Fabric OS 3.2.1 switch into a fabric consisting

solely of Fabric OS 2.x/3.x switches. Before adding a Fabric OS 3.2 .1 switch to such a fabric, refer

to the H P StorageWorks Fabric OS p rocedures 3.1.x/4.1.x user guide for information n the Extended

Edge PID format.

NOTE:

Switches must operate with Fabric OS 2.6.2, 3.1.2, 4.2.x, or later to use the Extended Edge PID format.

If Extended Edge PID is set (before a downgrade from the current Fabric OS release to an earlier Fabric

OS release that does not support the Extended Edge PID format), PID needs to be set back to a supported

format, such as Core PID (format 1) or native PID (format 0).
