Firmware update

Before configuring and using the MDS600, be sure that the MDS600 and all other devices in the SAS fabric are running the latest compatible versions of firmware.

If the MDS600 is directly cabled to an HP Smart Array controller or HP StorageWorks Extreme Data Storage solution, see Smart Components for ROM Flash (on page 25) to update the MDS600 firmware offline. Attach the MDS600 I/O module or modules to the Smart Array controller, and then use the Smart Component to update the MDS600 firmware. If necessary, repeat this step to attach and update remaining MDS600 I/O modules to ensure all I/O modules have been updated to the latest compatible MDS600 firmware.

If the MDS600 is directly cabled to an HP 3Gb SAS Blade Switch, go to the HP website

(http://www.hp.com/support) to download the MDS600 firmware image, and then use the active HP Virtual SAS Manager maintenance tab to update the MDS600 firmware offline. Before beginning, do the following:

•Power off all server blades for the firmware flash operation to be presented in the maintenance tab.

•Be sure the Virtual SAS Manager switch software in all c-Class interconnect bays is running version

2.2.4.0or later. If you are using a version earlier than 2.2.4.0, go to the HP website (http://www.hp.com/support) to update the switch software.

The active Virtual SAS Manager interface flashes both of the attached MDS600 primary and secondary I/O modules using the partnered 3G SAS switches in the c-Class interconnect bay row. The passive Virtual SAS Manager interface is not used.

The new MDS600 firmware activates after the MDS600 is reset from the Virtual SAS Manager or power cycled.

Detailed instructions on how to update the Virtual SAS Manager and MDS600 firmware are located in the Virtual SAS Manager user guide.

Power up

Observe the following guidelines before powering up the MDS600:

•Always install all components of the MDS600.

•Install hard drives in the MDS600 so the connected host controllers can identify and configure them at power up.

•Always power up the MDS600 first, and then the server.
