Version Compatibility
The following table shows which versions of Xsan and StorNext controllers and clients
can be used in the same SAN.
Important:
Note that if any client on your SAN is running Xsan 1.1 on Mac OS X v10.4,
your controllers must all be running the same (Xsan 1.1 on Mac OS X v10.4). You can’t
use a controller running Mac OS X v10.3 if any client is running Xsan 1.1 on Mac OS X
v10.4.
Upgrading From an Earlier Version of Xsan
For more information on migrating your SAN storage to Xsan 1.1 from an earlier version
of Xsan, including tips for upgrading with the least impact on existing storage, see the
Xsan Migration Guide at www.apple.com/server/documentation.
