2.In the Array Configuration window, click Array, and then click Firmware Download.
The Firmware Download window displays the name of the storage system on which the LIC will be updated.
3.In the Enter Full Path Name of File field, type the complete path of the LIC update file that you want to download.
4.From the Select Host
5.Set the storage processors to reboot automatically after the LIC update by check- ing Automatic Reboot.
The new LIC update does not take effect until the storage processors are rebooted. The storage processors reboot automatically after the LIC download is complete if Automatic Reboot is enabled. When you reboot the storage sys- tem’s storage processor, you may have to restart the Dell OpenManage Data Managed Node Data Agent on the storage system’s server.
If the LIC update also includes a more recent PROM version than what is in the storage processors, you must check Automatic Reboot; the storage processors update their PROM the first time you load a new LIC update only. If you do not put a check mark in the Automatic Reboot check box, the storage processors do not download the PROM update, which may be required by the LIC update.
6.Click OK.
7.In the LIC license agreement window, click Yes to accept the agreement and start downloading the LIC update.
8.When you see that the download has been completed successfully, click OK.
9.Reconfigure the array caching. For details, see "Configuring an Array" in the Dell OpenManage Data Supervisor, Event Monitor, and Integrator Installation and Operation Guide.
NOTE: The size of the new LIC update may cause memory sizing constraints that prevent you from reconfiguring the array cache. If this happens, reconfigure the memory partitions after the storage processors are rebooted (either manually or automatically).
10.If you did not enable Automatic Reboot, reboot the storage processors. You can reboot the storage processors in the array either by shutting down the array and then powering it up again or by using the rebootSP Data CLI command. If you use the command, you may have to stop and restart the Dell OpenManage Data Managed Node Data Agent on the server after the storage processors reboot. For details on the rebootSP command, see the Dell OpenManage Data CLI for NT Installation and Operation Guide.
NOTE: If the new version of the LIC detects that the cache was not deconfigured before the update, the 949h Illegal UpRev Configuration message is logged for each logical unit number (LUN) in the system, no LUNs are assigned,
