Virtual Connect server profiles 189

All profiles created prior to the upgrade remain unchanged and continue to operate similar to pre-4.01

behavior.
Example:
A configuration with HP VC Flex-10/10D modules in I/O Bays 1 and 2 and HP VC FlexFabric modules in

I/O Bays 3 and 4 in a pre-4.01 environment would only allow mapping of FCoE connections to the VC

FlexFabric modules in I/O Bays 3 and 4. A server profile in this environment would have the following
mapping for the Ethernet and FCoE connections.
Ethernet connections are shown in the following table.

Starting with VC v4.01, all newly created profiles map FCoE connections to I/O Bays 1 and 2 corresponding

to Flex-10/10D modules and allow up to two additional FCoE connections to be mapped to I/O Bays 3 and

4. This reduces the number of viable Ethernet connections in the server profile.
Ethernet connections for new profiles have changed to the connections shown in the following table.
