XCS 6000 has been out of support since December 31, 2007. The last one is 6220. The upgrade is direct and online.

It would be a good idea to update disk firmware too:

And Command View to lastest version:

But first you have to update your SAN and servers. Look that in the SPOCK web site:

Select "View by Array/OS" and select EVA6000 and Windows 2003 on the table.
