MSA1000 Setup and Sample Configurations
39Modular SAN Array 1000 User Guide
Installing Support Software
Support software includes HBA drivers as well as the ACU, Insight Manager 7,
and Compaq Analyze components that were discussed previously in this chapter.
After the MSA1000 is installed and connected to the server, you can load the
needed software components onto the server.
HBA Drivers
All servers that will access the MSA1000 must have the appropriate HBA drivers
installed. Drivers for Windows, Linux, and NetWare environments are located on
the Modular SAN Array 1000 Support Software CD, shipped with the MSA1000.
For instructions on installing these drivers, refer to the HP StorageWorks Modular
SAN Array 1000 Quick Installation Guide included with the CD in the HP
StorageWorks Modular SAN Array 1000 Setup and Management kit.
The HBA drivers for OpenVMS and Tru64 UNIX environments are built into their
operating systems. To obtain the latest version of the operating system, use your
normal support channels.
Array Configuration Utility
If your operating system supports the ACU and you plan to use the ACU to
configure the storage of the MSA1000, it may be loaded from the MSA1000
Software Support CD onto the server. For instructions on installing the ACU, refer
to the HP StorageWorks Modular SAN Array 1000 Quick Installation Guide
included with the CD in the HP StorageWorks Modular SAN Array 1000 Setup
and Management kit.
Insight Manager 7
If you are running in a Windows, Linux, or NetWare Linux environment, you can
use Insight Manager 7 to monitor the performance of your storage system. Install
Insight Manager 7 as instructed in the literature provided with your Insight
Manager 7 purchase.
Compaq Analyze
If you are running in an OpenVMS or Tru64 UNIX environment, you can use
Compaq Analyze to monitor your storage system. If Compaq Analyze is not
already loaded on your server, install it as instructed in the literature provided with
Compaq Analyze.
