• HP-UX 11i: HyperFabric software version B.11.11.01
Switches and Switch Modules
The HyperFabric1 and HyperFabric2 switches are as follows:
• A4891A HF1 16-port copper switch with an Ethernet port.
• A6384A HF2 fibre switch chassis with one integrated Ethernet management LAN
adapter card, one integrated 8-port fibre card, and one expansion slot. For the
chassis to be a functional switch, one of these two switch modules must be installed
in the expansion slot:
— The A6388A HF2 8-port fibre switch module. This gives the switch 16 fibre ports
(8 from the integrated fibre card and 8 from the A6388A).
— The A6389A HF2 4-port copper switch module. This gives the switch 12 ports—a
mixture of 8 fibre ports (from the integrated fibre card) and 4 copper ports (from
the A6389A module). This switch module is compatible with HF1 components
making it possible to have a fabric composed of both HF1 and HF2 components.
The A4891A HF1 switch is supported beginning with the following HyperFabric
software versions:
• HP-UX 10.20: HyperFabric software version B.10.20.02
• HP-UX 11.0: HyperFabric software version B.11.00.02
• HP-UX 11i: HyperFabric software version B.11.11.00
The A6384A HF2 switch chassis with either module installed is supported beginning
with the following HyperFabric software versions:
• HP-UX 11.0: HyperFabric software version B.11.00.11
• HP-UX 11i: HyperFabric software version B.11.11.01
NOTE In this manual, the terms HyperFabric2 switch or HF2 switch refer to the functional
switch (the A6384A switch chassis with one of the switch modules installed).
IMPORTANT HF1 and HF2 adapters and switches are not supported by software versions earlier than
those listed in “HyperFabric Adapters” on page 16 and “Switches and Switch Modules”
on page 17.
