firmware brocade 6.0.1a, where is it?

[Francisco Mata_1]

Thanks Victor, I opened the case whith HP and get the file (as you already know).

Thanks again.

[Process evCGI.cgis]

please It is not available from the HP Web and ftp

That's precisely what's stated above.
HP has removed the downloads from the public web and FTP. So call them as ask them to upload the files to some place you can get them.

What I really don't understand is, on a randomly chosen B-series switch site I find fabric OS versions from 3.something, then

16x 6.1.x
18x 6.2.x

but only a link to the 6.0.0(b) advisories:

A 6.1 version is ~450MB in size, 6.2 version is ~640MB in size.
This makes in summary ~19GB of fabric OS for these versions, but there is nowhere this wanted 6.0.x version...

Pffff, I've complained internally and asked who had the brilliant idea of removing that from the FTP (on other cases the link is not on the downloads page but the files are still on the FTP)...

After a $2.2 billion profit on the 3rd quarter, there should be some loose change available to purchase a 1 TB disk and put firmwares there. 1 TB is enough to store all the firmwares I can think of.

I have even joked about making a collect and give $99.99 to HP so they can purchase at least a 1 TB SATA hard disk...

Gco,

If you open a case with HP they will provide with a link to download the firmware.
