====== SilkWorm200E config ======

===== Introduction =====

{{:rb:hewlettpackard-storageworks-48.jpg |SilkWorm200e}} 
This documents my work configuring a pair of HP StorageWorks 4/8 SAN switches from an initial factory cleared config for use in a test fabric environment. These are labelled HP, but are made by Brocade and have rather old firmware.

Note:-
One confusing think is that you have to enter the path to your FOS code like this ./v4.4.1/release.plist

You will not find the release.plist file in folder v.4.4.1!

The command will redirect to the correct sub folder where the release.plist is in.

This give you the comfort to have a single image and the same command for all updates for all switch types.

The code from above is just an EXAMPLE. This 3800 is quite old and I can't remember the latest supported FOS code.
 

You can check this if you run the command "switchshow" on the switch and check the line "switchType:  xx.y"
 

This is the Brocade internal switch type. If you check your FOS code on your FTP server you should find a folder named like this "SWBDxx".

If not than this code is not supported for your switch. Download an older FOS code.
