Ah, that's news to me.
How does the product name change?
My contacts at HP Boeblingen said that the revision number indicated the 
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 
addition to the hardware table mechanism.

Cheers,

Hannes
