Ancor and Brocade switches are HP tested SAN solutions:

semiconductor.agilent.com

Ancor switches are also part of the "Anchor Devices" as defined in the following excerpt:

"Anchor Devices

The Cheetah-II 9GB and 18GB in each of the configurations form a baseline for testing. These "Anchor Devices" have successfully passed the Tachyon Testing criteria and are now used in configurations for testing other Fibre Channel products.

The Anchor Devices currently are:

Agilent Fibre Channel HBA
Seagate Cheetah II 9GB & 18GB Fibre Channel Hard Disks
Ancor MK-II Switch
Gadzoox Gibraltar GS Hub"

I guess Agilent didn't have any problems with Ancor switches. I was surprised that Agilent rather than HP storage had this listing.

Overall, my view is that this is good news for Ancor fans. I think it also mean that the process may be accelerating - when do we get news like this posted matter of factly on a web site?
