Ah, that's news to me.
How does the product name change?
My contacts at HP Boeblingen said that the revision number indicated the=20
behaviour.
What are the names of the fw using START_STOP_UNIT?
And what are those for using ALUA?

And irrespective of this I think matching by revision is still a valid=20
addition to the hardware table mechanism.

Cheers,

Hannes
