The following enhancements are part of SR 2015.07.4:
Pool Manager supports ACU CLI and HP SSA CLI.
For the systems that have v3.03.0a and v4.00.0a, the pool options are provided based on the rule file used in v4.00.0a. For the systems that have v4.02.0a and v4.03.0a, the pool options are provided based on the rule file used in v4.03.0a. This is to avoid any conflict that might occur with pool operations performed on an existing pool (before installing SR) which may have a different spare configuration in the latest rule file.
For more information on the enhancements, see the Release Notes of your product.
To determine if you must install the service release, you must verify the HP System Installation and Recovery version that is running on the HP StoreEasy Storage. To determine the HP System Installation and Recovery version, click Server Manager → Tools → HP StoreEasy and click Manage Storage Pools.
This service release version is applicable for HP StoreEasy products listed in the Product models section.
An HP System Installation and Recovery version that is less than the version listed in the Prerequisites section indicates that you are running an older version of the HP StoreEasy Storage software. HP recommends that you upgrade to the latest version.
To determine the current service release version for HP StoreEasy 3000 and 3PAR StoreServ File Controller and File Controller v2 Storages:
Log in to the server blade.
Open a command window.
Enter the following registry command and verify the service release version in the output:
C:\> reg query HKLM\Software\Hewlett-Packard\StorageServer
A service release that is less than the version listed in the output indicates you are running an older version of the StoreEasy software. HP recommends that you upgrade to the latest version.
TIP: You can also use the Pool Manager to determine the current version of the service release. Pool Manager is available on HP StoreEasy 1000 and 5000 Storages, and System Dashboard is available on HP StoreEasy 1000, 3000, and HP 3PAR StoreServ File Controller and File Controller v2 Storages. | |
Instructions for installing the storage system are provided in the Quick Start Guide of your product.
Before installing the service release, make sure that the system drive on which you install the service release has a minimum 5 GB of available space to accommodate the upgrade. The specific amount of disk space required depends on the components that you select for installation.
