Hi, I am awaiting a delivery of an MSA 1000, fully redundant.

I know updating the firmware is importend, the big question alway is, where and how to start?

Can someone explean it please, as i found on the HP internet site there is a support CD available?

How exactly do you need to updating the whole thing in with order? Is the specific update online / ofline or trough telnet, I found many many documents but I can't see the whole picture.

Any one whoes reply, thanks on advance.

On a fully "redundant" MSA1500 (same controller) It's an offline operation.

run the firmware tool, and reboot. (including enclosures)
