Updating Firmware - HP 418800-B21 - StorageWorks Modular Smart Array 70 Storage Enclosure Maintenance And Service Manual

Updating firmware

After installing hardware and powering up the enclosure, be sure to verify that the host controller, the
enclosure, and hard drives have the latest firmware. You can identify which firmware versions you have
for the host controller, the MSA70, and the installed hard drives through HP SIM and ACU. ADU allows
you to view the firmware versions for the host controller and hard drives, but not the MSA70.
NOTE:
The firmware for both the SAS and SATA hard drives is upgradeable.
For firmware and software updates, see the HP website:
http://h18004.www1.hp.com/support/files/storage/us/index.html. You can also update the firmware
on the server, controller, enclosure, and hard drives using Smart Components. See the section "Smart
Components for ROM Flash" in the MSA70 user guide.
You can receive proactive support alerts, such as Customer Advisories, as well as updates on drivers,
software, firmware, and customer replaceable components, via e-mail through HP Subscriber's Choice.
