Hewlett-Packard Company introduced a family of High Availability
Fiber Link disk drives. Fiber Link's discontinuance ends
August 1, 1997. The Fiber Link disk represented HP's first
RAID devices built for high availability, high performance, high
capacity and distance up to 500 meters. RAID technology has continued
to move forward, and CSY has embraced each new RAID technology EMC
Disk arrays, High Availability Model 10 and disk arrays.
With CSY readying itself for new I/O cards, processors and
I/O backplanes, MPE/iX 6.5 is the first HP 3000 O.S. to support
new I/O devices and processors; therefore, CSY is not carrying Fiber
Link support forward in MPE/iX 6.5. FL will be supported on MPE/iX
6.0, until its obsolescence occurs.
