Ken,

I said that this should be supported by the end of March....  Well
today is the last day, and we have not quite gotten all the "t" crossed
and the "i" dotted, so it will be a little longer, but it will happen
soon....  Also, this will require an updated SOC+HA (501-3060-06 as of
this posting)...

<jh> All,
<jh> 
<jh> What is the status of attaching an A5000 array to an Ultra 2 host ?
<jh> 
<jh> One month ago, Joe Harman reported issues with the FC-100 Sbus card in the
<jh> Ultra 2. See Joe's comments, from Feb below...
