First of all, be advised support for 3028 ends December 31. It is recommended you upgrade from 3028 to 3110.
As for the Brocade switches, what model(s) do you have, and what version of firmware are they currently running?
If you post what OS(es) and hardware platform(s) you have for hosts, that would help sombeody in looking up HBA firmware.

It is recommended you upgrade the Brocade switches to v5.3.0a. You would need to do an intermediate upgrade to v5.2.1b; I don't think you can upgrade from 5.0.1b to 5.3.0a directly.
