HP StorageWorks Clustered Gateway (server/software bundle) 3.6.1 Windows Storage Server Edition upgrade guide (AG515-96012, September 2008)
Chapter 2: Upgrade procedure 18
Upgrade the HP CFS Management Console on
Clients
The stand-alone HP CFS Management Console must be upgraded to
version 3.6.1 on any client systems currently running an earlier version of
the console. The stand-alone console cannot be installed on a server
already running HP Clustered File System 3.6. (HP Clustered File System
includes a built-in version of the HP CFS Management Console.)
Complete these steps:
1. Remove the old version of the console using Add/Remove Programs
on the Control Panel.
2. Install the new version of the console. Locate the file
MxConsole_3.6.1.<xxxx>.msi on the distribution CD or in your
download location. Double-click the file and then run the Installation
Wizard.
Configure New Features
See the HP StorageWorks Clustered File System Administration Guide for more
information about configuring and using these features.
• Performance Monitor Service. This service includes two components:
the Performance Dashboard and the MxS Perfmon extension. The
Performance Dashboard provides server and cluster performance data
over a period of time (the last hour, day, week, month, or year).
Filesystem data is provided for individual PSFS filesystems and can
be aggregated for all PSFS filesystems. The MxS Perfmon extension
extends the native Windows Performance tool by adding Performance
Objects and counters for HP Clustered File System.
• Support for Alternate Data Streams (ADS) in the PSFS filesystem.
Pre-3.6.1 filesystems must be upgraded to use this feature. See ì
Upgrade Filesystems for Alternate Data Streams (ADS)î on page 32. It
is a requirement to upgrade pre-3.6.1 filesystems used with HP
PolyServe Software for Microsoft SQL Server.
