Sun StorageTek Common Array Manager Software Release Notes 29
Upgrading Expansion Modules
Prerequisite: Before discovering a Sun StorageTek FLX240, FLX280, FLX380 array
using Common Array Manager and before performing any tray migration (for
example, adding FLA300 expansion trays behind an existing 6130, 6140 or 6540
controller), you must use existing management software to upgrade the arrays and
associated trays to the firmware version 6.19.25.00. After you register the arrays
using Common Array Manager, you can upgrade to the current baseline firmware,
6.19.25.26.
To add a newly supported expansion module to an existing array:
1. Before cabling the newly supported expansion module, upgrade the existing
controller and trays.
2. Add the expansion module.
3. Upgrade the array again.
To add an existing expansion tray to a new array, it is safest to follow a similar
procedure:
1. Install the new controller and trays.
2. Perform the firmware upgrade.
3. Add the expansion tray.
4. Upgrade the array again.
