In the case of 100% virtual environment (virtual SQL server, virtual Exchange server, virtual AppSync server, and virtual mount host), all running Windows 2008 R2 SP1, does the STORport driver even matter, since Fibre Channel to the Windows OS isn't being used?  In that case can I skip the STORport hotfixes too?

For the latest STORPort driver, I would go to the "EMC page" of the Emulex or QLogic website to get the EMC approved version.  (I have no experience with Brocade or Cisco HBAs, but I assume they have an EMC page like Emulex and QLogic do)

please do not just get the "latest" from the vendor's website...go to the EMC Page of the vendors website for the latest EMC approved version.

Hope this helps!

Thanks guys, that was just what I needed.  Next question is how to determine what is the "EMC supported" version of the STORport driver for Windows 2008 R2 SP1.  I also see that I need hotfixes KB2468345 and KB975921, but I am not sure if I need to first upgrade the STORport driver and then apply these hotfixes, or if the hotfixes are good enough alone?

Thanks,

Bill
