Integrity Blade 2 x BL860c HP-UX 11.31 with Virtual Connect

[chuckk281]

Terri had some VC and Hitachi SAN questions:

*****************

1. Any reason why the BL860c is not in the BladeSystem for ProLiant Release Set Compatibility Table?

ftp://ftp.hp.com/pub/softlib2/software1/doc/p616879734/v70274/ReleaseSet_Compatibility_Table-9.30-2.pdf

2. Need help verifying if following BL860c revs are current or not:

BL860c with iLO2 3.15

EFI 7.15

ROM B 4.21

I've got two of these blades running HP-UX 11.31 & 4GB QMH2462 FC HBAs with intermittent lost of connectivity to Hitachi SAN. 

Note: They are using virtual addressing and Hitachi system option 346 is enabled. Hitachi tech support reports no problems on storage array side. 4GB VC-FC modules running VC v3.18/1.41

*******************

From Brian:

****************

The BL860c is an Integrity server and therefore not listed in the ProLiant release set. The BladeSystem release sets for Integrity servers can be found here:

• » HP BladeSystem Release Sets for Integrity

Have you had any issues connecting Hitachi SAN systems to Integrity blade servers?
