1.2.19 All servers in an HP SFS system must use the same HP SFS version
Before you can create or start a file system, all servers in the HP SFS system must be running the same version
of the HP SFS software. If all versions are not the same, you will see an error similar to the following:
sfs> start file 4x2TB
Reloading license status.
Error - south4 SFS version is not V2.2-1
Cannot start a file system: all servers must use the same SFS version
For example, server south4 is down for maintenance when an HP SFS system is upgraded and now has
an earlier version of the HP SFS software installed. You must disable server south4 before creating or
starting a file system using the following sfsmgr command:
sfs> disable server south4
You should now be able to create or start a file system.
