HP StorageWorks Modular Smart Array 1000 Support Software CD Content List and Notes

prior to upgrading any of the MSA1000 software or hardware components.
***Known errata in this release***
* For a list of configuration rules when using the MSA1000 with Proliant B-Class Blade
Servers and Intel 64-bit Itanium 2 servers please check here for the latest support
information:
http://h18006.www1.hp.com/products/storageworks/msa1000/documentation.html#rn
* Using the FCA-2404 HBA with the MSA Embedded Fabric Switch 6 will not work
and is not supported
* The MSA command line interface may report that the World Wide Node name has the
same value as the World Wide Port Name when the MSA1000 is originally configured
with the Array Configuration Utility. ACU does not pass the WWnn parameter back to
the MSA during a configuration save process, which results in the CLI duplicating the
WWNN field with the data from the WWPN field. Because the MSA1000 basis LUN
access restrictions only on the WWPN, access of configured storage is not affected by
this issue. A fix will be available in a future version of ACU
* The Array Diagnostics Utility (ADU) support is not yet available for MsA1000
configurations using the FCA2214DC or the FCA2404 Fibre Channel HBA's. An
updated MSA1000 support software CD will be posted to
http://www.hp.com/go/msa1000 soon which will contain an updated ADU with support
for these HBA's
* The Array Diagnostic Utility (ADU) Save Report function is obscured. In order to use
this function, scroll the report view to the left from the top of the report page.
* Status events displayed on the Primary MSA1000 array controller may be duplicated
on the Standby MSA1000 array controller when a path transition between controllers
occurs. For instance, say you hot plug a new hard drive on November 1st, then a
controller/path failover event occurs on November 30th. The LCD panel event from the
drive hot-plug may display as a new event on the standby controller when the standby
controller takes over. Event logs and Insight Manager will not duplicate the event. This
issue will be addressed in a future version of MSA1000 firmware
* For the latest supported Linux deliverables, visit http://www.hp.com/go/msa1000
regularly--new support is
added between releases of the MSA Support Software CD.
