ACU and 7.60 not working with MSA1000

Upgraded all Proliant servers to Support Pack 7.60. After a few days I needed to change the configuration of the MSA1000 I use. The new version of the ACU would not work with the MSA. It said it was not correctly connedted or something else was wrong.
After downgrading one of the servers to use 7.50 that server's ACU worked OK so I could solve the urgent problem.
Any idea what is needed to use the latest release?

Bengt,

Did the FC drivers upgraded when using the PSP 7.60?

Thanks for a very quick reply.
I used the Version Control page to update to the supportpack 7.60. From waht I can see the FC drivers have been updated as well. I enclose a JPG of the VC page.

After checking firmware version of MSA, realizing it was very old, I upgraded to 4.48 and the ACU worked also in version 7.70 and 7.60.
Points assigned!
Thanks John!
