Hello Jozef,

 

HP FC2242SR 4Gb 2-port PCIe Fibre Channel Host Bus Adapter is compatible with G6\G7 and certain Gen8 servers.

 

This PCIe FC Host Bus Adaptor is compatible with certain HP ProLiant DL360e Gen8 servers.

 

Please find the below compatibility list (URL) to view the complete list of servers  which are compatible with this Adaptor.

In Case you are planning to integrate the FC card in Gen8 platform then kindly refer the authentic and proper place to look for would be Quickspecs.

DL360e Gen8

DL380p Gen8 as below:
http://h18004.www1.hp.com/products/quickspecs/14212_div/14212_div.HTML

If its not listed here as supported then it is not. reason the product was not tested on these models OR they might have interoperability issues. So I would suggest everytime you want to move any product to a latest generation then consider looking in the Quickspecs for compatibility as its updated more often then anyother website.

Thank you

It's possible to use 2 x HP FC2242SR 4Gb 2-port PCIe Fibre Channel Host Bus Adapter in HP DL360 Gen8, or that possibility is only in HP DL 380 Gen8 ..

 

 Thx
