Fabric OS v6.4.1 Release Notes v1.0

Page 15 of 62

To ensure that a configuration is fully supported, always check the appropriate SAN, storage or blade server
product support page to verify support of specific code levels on specific switch platforms prior to installing on
your switch. Use only FOS versions that are supported by the provider.

When using the Virtual Fabrics feature, it is highly recommended that all switches participating in a fabric with
a logical switch use the latest firmware available for those switches. All switches must be operating at
minimum firmware levels noted in the FOS Interoperability table below.

For a list of the effective end-of-life dates for all versions of Fabric OS, visit the following Brocade Web
