Hello Prime Bank,

Unfortuneately the netservers only supported HBA that I could find (Which is obsolete) was the D8602A This does not have any EVA support and was for the old netserver RS/12FC

You would be best to try one of the supported EVA FC HBA's in the netserver (which wouldn't have ever been tested or supported for netservers) and verify your results. Of course the best solution configuration wise, not pocketbook wise, would be to have the enterprise class, high performance EVA off a new high performance proliant server. Then you can verify the HBA is supported in the server as well. :)

hth,
Greg
