    It isn't listed among recommended network switches to use on a HP StoreVirtual Storage deployment (probably because its port buffer cache isn't as good as the one available using other recommended HPE Switches), this doesn't mean it is unsupported at all (it can work)...just that is not the best unit you can use when deploying your HP StoreVirtual Storage and so your mileage may vary consistently.

    See here and use SPOCK (Single Point of Connectivity Knowledge) portal to gain more information about recommended Switches.

    Another interesting guide is this one.
