    Version: XCS 6.240 Description This document contains information specific to the release of XCS 6.240 for the EVA4000/6000/8000 and EVA4100/6100/8100. Much of the information included here is not documented elsewhere, so it is recommended that you read this information thoroughly before installing and operating the EVA4x00/6x00/8x00.
  • Page 4: Upgrading Controllers

    Fixed an issue where a bad block reassign command was being issued to the same volume from both controllers. When resolving a multiple drive failure in a disk group that contains DR group members and the disk groups volumes are brought offline, a metadata update function may be started incorrectly on the controller that is not the primary controller.

    XCS 6.240 and upgrading to XCS 6.240 is not currently possible, contact HP support for alternative solutions to address the event. See the customer advisory (c01914371, HP StorageWorks 4000/6000/8000 and 4100/6100/8100 Enterprise Virtual Array EMU communication events are sometimes reported following upgrade to XCS 6.220) for more information.
  • Page 6 Under storage, click Disk Storage Systems, and then select the appropriate array model under EVA Disk Arrays. Important notes and workarounds This section identifies important notes and workarounds for the EVA4x00/6x00/8x00 hardware and XCS software. Upgrading to XCS 6.240 puts asynchronous DR groups in Temp Sync state Upgrading to XCS 6.240 from any version earlier than XCS 6.200 puts asynchronous DR groups in Temp Sync state.
  • Page 7 To have an asynchronous data replication with arrays with VCS 3.1 10, first the DR Group creation must be in synchronous mode and wait for normalization to complete and then the replication mode needs to be changed to asynchronous mode. Redundancy (Vraid) level for the destination member should be same as the source for XCS 6.240 and VCS 3.1 10.
