Hi, I need to validate if the DCX directors are compatible with HP, IBM and Neappt arrays, but I'm not able to find a document on powerlink, thoes any one know if there is a support matrix or a doc where I can validate compatibility?
The big picture: we are planning to replace two brocade12k´s with DCX but we have several non EMC storage ettached to the fabrics.
Have you used the E-Lab Interoperability Navigator? If you use the Advanced Query option you can select all the items in your environment to see what items work together. I know that the Brocade DCX switches are listed there.
You can find it at:
Support > Interoperability and Product Lifecycle Information > E-Lab Interoperability Navigator
That makes sense. The interoperability matrix has IBM, NetApp, and other arrays in the list (along with the Brocades) but I guess they just test the products in relation to working with EMC products.
Yup I tried that before posting, but it doesnt show what I'm looking for. I'm currently checking with the other storage vendors to see if their compatibility matrix has what I need.
Please note that the Brocade compatibilty matrix isn't valid for support of EMC configurations. There are items on their matrix supported by EMC that they don't list and vice versa. If there is any EMC equipment involved you should always refer to the EMC matrix. If there are questions or concerns about what we have listed as support please contact your local EMC field support. There are processes in place to inquire on and to support items not listed in our matrix.
