I need Fabric OS 6.0.0b


I need the firmware update 6.0.0 b for SAN SWITCHES, but the hp page is not available.


Someone can tell me where I can download it?

Thank you.

This is a real problem, on the website are several gigabytes of other FOS versions, but no 6.0.x at all. Contact HP and ask them why.

Hope this helps!

The previous link is for IBM. Are you sure that the firmware will be the same as the one issued from HP? Just asking....

It's been some years that I talked to a Brocade engineer. At that time he said that OEMs might support different switch firmware versions, but Brocade did not allow any OEM-specific firmware images.

==========================================

GA Available FOS package are the same, excepted non-GA and CVR. v6.0.0b is GA

For detals refer the release Notes, or post here the SwitchType, I'll provide to confirm, if is supported or no.

Good to know. I was always worried about using non-HP supplied firmware files, just in case they point a finger at it should there be a problem.

You have to note follow: As mentioned, GA FOS package are the same, but you must make sure in some Environments to use a package which is Tested or Qualified by the OEM if the hardware are under Maintenance Contract.
