2Integrating Secure Fabric OS
Secure Fabric OS is supported by Fabric OS v2.6.2, v3.x and v4.x and later; it can be
added to fabrics that contain any combination of these versions. This manual applies to
v3.2.0, and v4.4.x, and assumes that these versions are running before adding Secure Fabric
OS. The procedure for adding Secure Fabric OS to a switch depends on whether the switch is
shipped with one of these versions installed or requires upgrading.
HP StorageWorks switches running Fabric OS 2.3.x through Fabric OS 4.4.x can be
upgraded to this latest version of Secure Fabric OS. These switches include:
• HP StorageWorks 1 Gbps switches
• HP StorageWorks SAN Switch 2/8 EL and HP StorageWorks SAN Switch 2/16
• HP StorageWorks SAN Switch 2/32
• HP StorageWorks SAN Switch 4/32
• HP StorageWorks Core Switch 2/64
• HP StorageWorks SAN Director 2/128
• HP StorageWorks SAN Switch 2/8V, 2/16V and 2/16N
