Re: XP256, MC Service Guard, and Fabric login
The fabric login is available since you have the A5158A (Tachlite) PCI Fibre Channel Adapter but it only workd in N, L and V Classes. After, you have to apply a patch to HP-UX in order to get FL mode.I think HP have support for Fabric Login only in PCI based servers, you'll have to check if they have some kind of HSC Tachlite adapters for K class.
Hope this help;

SolutionWe have couple of K's, L's and N class connected to XP256 through FC-AL hubs.
As far as my memory serves me..
K classes doesn't support fabric logon. You can emulate the fabric logon by something called Q-loop. But you can take real advantage of fabric logon in which you get 100Mbps bandwidth for each and every port.
If you have 3 K's, 2 L's and 1 N class, then by enabling fabric and Q-loop.
All the L and N class server's get 100 Mbps for each port and all K's share 100Mbps bandwdith.

Re: XP256, MC Service Guard, and Fabric login
the 120 Device Limitation applys only to FC-AL. In a switched fabric envrionment there are only theoretical limits (about some million devices).
If you use a mixed configuration, L- and N-class connected trough fabric, K-Class connected via QuickLoop, you should use more than two XP-Ports too:
The FC-AL connected Hosts will need XP Ports in FC-AL mode, they can't talk to fabric ports.
Although the fabric Hosts could talk with FC-AL Ports (FC-AL is a subset of fabric), you should consider to use extra XP-Ports in fabric mode for them, to take full advantage of fabric.

Re: XP256, MC Service Guard, and Fabric login
Please note that with the release of the A6685A FC card for K-classes fabric logon is supported on K-classes.
