Hello All,

If my fc card (/dev/td0 ; part'A6795-62001' ) driver version is (B.11.11.12) is it ok for my FCD (FibrChanl-00) to be at B.11.11.09 ? I noticed fcmsutil indicates a patch (PHSS_31326). Is this what brings my fc cards to Driver version B.11.11.12 ?

This HP-UX question seems to be a bit lost in the Linux forum, but anyway:
yes, installing the patch PHSS_31326 causes the driver version to be indicated as "B.11.11.12 PATCH_11.11 (PHSS_31326)".

According to the patch information available in itrc.hp.com, the patch PHSS_31326 applies to various versions of the FC-TACHYON-TL.FC-TL-RUN fileset, from the version B.11.11.01 up to B.11.11.12, so looks like it's OK.

I'll notify the moderators to move this thread to the HP-UX forum.
