Thanks for all of the replies, they have been most helpful.
It appears the Brocade 3800 is the most popular model.

Currently have a Sun rebranded 8 port QLogic switch for a V880 with 2
HBAs, an L700 Library, and 4 LTO2 drives.

It was installed as a temporary measure untill our SAN infrastructure is
in place, which will consist of Brocade Silkworm 24k and 3800 FC
switches.

All,
=20
We are using an L700 with 5 STK9840s and 4 LTO2 HPUltrium2
Drives.
What type of Fiber switch would work the best with a Solaris 5.8
server?
=20
For those of us who use fiber switches, which kind do you use?
Which type do you recommend?
Can you please provide model numbers when replying? Thanks!

Anyone here use brocade? Which model would you recommend?

Justin.
