HP P6000 Cluster Extension Software Installation Guide (5697-0987, June 2011)

Resetting the DR group GUI display
After the upgrade is complete, the P6000 Cluster Extension resource configuration GUI displays a
blank value for the DR group Write mode property for existing P6000 Cluster Extension resources.
P6000 Cluster Extension will work as expected even though the Write mode is not displayed in the
GUI.
If you want to view the correct Write mode value in the GUI, perform the following procedure:
1. Open the P6000 Cluster Extension resource configuration tool or the Parameters tab in Cluster
Administrator or Failover Cluster Management.
2. Click Advanced Settings and record the configured values for Application Startup behavior,
Failsafe mode override, and Use non-current data ok.
3. Click Browse and then click OK to reselect the DR group.
4. Click Advanced Settings and enter the values recorded in Step 2.
NOTE:
For instructions on using the resource configuration GUI, see the HP P6000 Cluster Extension
Administrator Guide .
Upgrading from P6000 Cluster Extension 2.01.00 or later (Windows Server
2008/2008 R2)
IMPORTANT:
Perform the upgrade procedure on each node locally. P6000 Cluster Extension does not support
remote upgrades.
1. Download the P6000 Cluster Extension Software from SUM. You can access SUM from the ITRC
website: http://www.itrc.hp.com.

View that is installed on your management servers.
Compatibility information is available on the HP SPOCK website: http://www.hp.com/storage/
spock. If you need to upgrade P6000 Command View to support the new version of P6000
Cluster Extension, use the procedure in “Upgrading P6000 Cluster Extension with P6000
Command View upgrade” on page 22.
3. Move all of the applications from the current node to another node.
4. Double-click the P6000 Cluster Extension installation package, and follow the on-screen
instructions.
5. Restart the cluster service on the node.

later.
