I did manage to find a document that showed that the A6795A, A6885A, and A6884A are compatible with the MSL5052. Also, any real documentation on the A3740A and it's capabilities/limitations would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Josh

Re: MSL6030 with Fibre
I also know that this has be EOL'd, but I am trying to have an N4000 connect to the tape library, and there is already an A3740A card in the box.
Thanks,
Josh

SolutionDid you look in the EBS compatability matrix (www.hp.com/go/ebs)?
On page 10, it lists HP-UX (PA-RISC) support which includes the N-class servers. It lists:
Fibre Host Bus Adapters
AB465A (2G Combo Card)
A9782 (2G Combo Card)
A9784 (2G Combo Card)
A6826A (2G)
A6795A (2G)
A5158A (1G)
Those are the cards we officially test now.
The first time the MSL6030 appeared on the matrix was April 2003. The HBAs at that time were:
A6795A (2G)
A6685A (1G)
A5158A (1G)
I checked a matrix in between (Jan 05) and the card you mention was not listed there either.
That doesn't mean the A3740A will not work, but it does not appear to be one that we officially tested.

Re: MSL6030 with Fibre
Its succesor 5158A does .
either plug this card directly into the FC_scsi bridge or if you want to use the switch then set the brocade ports whenre these cards connect to , to quick loop .
On firther ioscan and insfe -e , you should see your device file and fcmsutil should work .
For this card the bridge should be at firmware version 3917 and the brocade2800 at firware 2.1.3.

Re: MSL6030 with Fibre
This system is running 11.00
The MSL is direct attached to the MSL directly.

Re: MSL6030 with Fibre
The ebs matrix components apply to both DAF (Direct Attached Fibre) as well as SAN attached.
