HP StorageWorks P9000 Performance Advisor Software v5.4 Install Guide (T1789-96330, April 2012)

IMPORTANT:
If the upgrade does not complete, the installation wizard will automatically perform a roll-back
of P9000 Performance Advisor to the earlier version, from where you had initiated the upgrade.
The installer log details are available in the PA_Install.log file in the <system_drive>:\
P9000_PA_Install_Log path, where <system_drive> refers to the drive on which the operating
system is installed. For the PA_Install.log to open, Windows Installer v4.0 or later should
be installed on the management station and functioning properly.
The previous PA_Install.log file is renamed as PA_Install_<timestamp>.log. The
<timestamp> indicates the date and time of the backup.

except for the SNMP settings are retained in the serverparameters.properties file after the
upgrade process is completed. They are also displayed on the Email Settings screen when you click
PA and DB Settings in P9000 Performance Advisor. However, you will have to manually reconfigure
the SNMP settings.
