E HP StorageWorks mpx100/mpx100b to
MPX200 Upgrade
The purpose of this appendix is to provide the steps required to replace an existing installation of the
StorageWorks EVA iSCSI Connectivity Kit (mpx100/mpx100b) with the StorageWorks MPX200
Multifunction Router. This appendix assumes that the user is familiar with HP StorageWorks EVA, HP
Command View EVA, SSSU, EVA iSCSI Connectivity Kit (mpx100/mpx100b), and the MPX200
Multifunction Router. You must plan for downtime, since this upgrade procedure requires production
interruption.
To upgrade from mpx100/mpx100b to the MPX200
Multifunction Router:
1.
Using the CLI or mpx Manager, capture the mpx100 configuration backup by performing a Save
FRU on each router. This is only for backup.
2.
Capture the EVA configuration via SSSU for backup.
3.
Before shutting down all servers, shut down all applications that access the iSCSI storage.
a.
For Windows, remove all targets from the Favorite Target tab in the iSCSI applet. Remove
all IP addresses in the Discovery tab.
b.
For Linux, delete everything in the Send Targets and Nodes folders to clean up all target
information.
4.
Shut down all servers attached to the mpx100.
5.
Use the HP Command View EVA GUI or run SSSU to unpresent LUNs.
Example 1. SSSU:
delete iscsi_lun iscsi_host="\Hosts\mpx100\BL6\BL6-02" vdisk="\Virtual
Disks\mpx100\mpx100-D002"
6.

unpresented.
