For registration procedures, see the Configuring Arrays for HP Smart Array Controllers Reference Guide available on the controller Documentation CD or the ACU product page on the HP website (http://h18004.www1.hp.com/products/servers/proliantstorage/software-management/acumatrix/inde x.html).

Required hardware

For a list of Smart Array controllers that support SAAP, see the SAAP product page on the HP website (http://www.hp.com/go/SAAP).

To support some controller features, the controller may also require a hardware configuration that includes the following cache (array accelerator) options:

•A cache module that is 256 MiB or larger

•A compatible battery pack or capacitor pack

To obtain these options, contact an HP authorized reseller or see the HP website (http://www.hp.com/products/smartarray).
