Since configurations for SGeRAC may be complex to configure and maintain, it is
strongly recommended that you use Hewlett-Packard’s high availability consulting
services to ensure a smooth installation and rollout.
Contact your HP representative to inquire about high availability consulting. Because
there may be changes in firmware requirements as new hardware is released, you
should work with your HP representative to ensure that you have the latest firmware
revisions for disk drives, disk controllers, LAN controllers, and other hardware.
