IMPORTANT: Before upgrading the controller firmware, ensure that the storage system
configuration is stable and is not reconfigured or changed. If any configuration changes are
in progress, monitor them with SMU, and wait until they are completed before proceeding
with the upgrade.
HP recommends a full backup prior to the upgrade.
a. If the replaced controller and its partner controller are at the same firmware version level,
no further actions are necessary.
b. If the replaced controller is at a lower firmware level than its partner:
i. Unmount all HP SFS clients and targets (MGT, MDT, and OSTs) on all HP SFS server
nodes to halt all host I/O to the storage system. For more information, see section
5.4 Stopping the File System in the HP Scalable File Share User Guide G3.2-0.
Use the SMU or CLI interface to upgrade the firmware on the replaced controller, as
described in “Upgrading controller module firmware on controller modules attached
to HP SFS” (page 8).
NOTE: Perform the upgrade only on the replaced controller, not all controllers.
ii. After both controller pairs in affected MSA enclosures are at same firmware level,
start all HP SFS servers and file system components (MGT, MDT, and OSTSs). For
more information, see section 5.3 Starting the File System in the HP Scalable File
Share User Guide G3.2-0.
