AS4100:compatibility with XP1024

[Learn_1]

trying to configure XP1024 with AS4100 running tru64unix 5.1B.having error on SRM when we run wwidmgr commands.it does not show us wwid command and returns error ww2wwenv invalid wwid.the firmware is 6.0.is there any known issue while configuring xp1024 with Alpha server 4100 or any workaround to configure with 4100.FCHBA is 2354(HP product)

The AS4100 with the FCA 2354 is supported.
Things to look for:
Host Mode on the XP for Tru64 is 07.
You need LUN0 in the Tru64 host group of the XP.
HBA FW should be 3.92a2
FC switche ports running in direct fabric mode (not private or public loop mode)

We have several XP1024 running Tru64 5.1B here in Switzerland, it really works.

Cheers
