A.05.70 HP Insight Remote Support Advanced HP StorageWorks P4000 Storage System Migration Guide (October 2011, 5900-1528)
1.3 Configuring the P4000 Storage Systems
1.3.1 Upgrading the SAN/iQ Software on the P4000 Storage Systems
You will use CMC to upgrade to SAN/iQ 8.5, 9.0 or 9.5 on the P4000 Storage Systems. If your P4000
Storage Systems already has SAN/iQ 8.5 or 9.0 installed, you do
not
need to perform this procedure.
NOTE: P4000 Storage Systems running SAN/iQ 8.5 require Patch 10076 installed on every P4000 node
to work with Insight Remote Support Advanced A.05.60 or A.05.70.
NOTE: P4800 Storage Systems running SAN/iQ 9.0 require 9.0 Patch Set 05 installed on every
P4000 node to work with Insight Remote Support Advanced A.05.60 or A.05.70. This applies to the
following models:
• BM480A HP StorageWorks P4800 G2 63TB SAS BladeSystem SAN Solution
• BV931A HP P4800 G2 31.5TB SAS SAN Solution for BladeSystem
• BV932A HP P4800 G2 42TB SAS SAN Solution for BladeSystem

CMC version 9.0 and 9.5 provides a new option to download SAN/iQ upgrades and patches from the
HP. Once the current upgrades and patches are downloaded from HP to the CMC system, CMC can be
used to update Management Groups or nodes with these changes.
When you upgrade the SAN/iQ software on a storage node, the version number changes. Check the current
software version by selecting a storage node in the navigation window and viewing the Details tab window.
NOTE: When installing/upgrading SAN/iQ, do not modify the default SNMP settings. The default settings
are used by Insight Remote Support, and communication between the P4000 Storage System and the CMS
will not function properly if the SNMP settings are modified. SNMP is enabled by default in SAN/iQ. In
