Will this HP Fibre Channel card be supported

[linux-storage]

...at some point in the future?

HP StorageWorks PCI-e 8Gb Host Bus Adapter

It's an 8 GBit card.

We have the switches, but not the cards yet.

Any plans for support?

We can look into this but we will need 2 of these to test in our labs then we can post them on our HCL. We will have to test that there is support with our kernel 2.6.27 in 32 and 64 bit modes and Initiator and Target mode as well.

I have been trying to get in touch with HP but seems it is very difficult to get them to provide us even RAID controllers - if you have 2 of these HP FC HBA's please let me know and we can arrange where to ship them for testing then we can ship them back to you.

Let me know by email.
