End Of Life MSA arrays

RaviM_2 — Mon, 02 May 2011 09:19:59 GMT

I can't find the information regarding EOL for HP MSA500-G2, MSA1000 & MSA2012I arrays. Also I want to know, when does the support of these array come to an end?

Hey, the MSA500/1000 should be EOL quite some time ago. The MSA2012 (which is a G1) should not be too long off, as there have been two generations released after that.

By looking here:

[Moderator note: Removed the broken link.]
it looks like they don't sell the G1 anymore? Only G2 and G3.

You may be able to find the EOL announcements / support statements in the customer notices/advisories.. Have you looked there?

Thanks for your responce Johan. How can I get to know the exact year of EOL for MSA500/1000?
I am currently not much concerned about MSA2012, since I've got to know that warranty for MSA2012 has not expired.
I am quite new to HP storage products & hence I haven't checked any announcements/support statements.

Thanks Johan, you've helped a lot. But still it's difficult to find proper EOL dates for HP products.
