EVA XCS version Upgrade Confusion
What would you recommend and why ?
Upgrade form 5.1 to
600 or 610 or 611
what are the advantages over 600 and 611 ?
I know that 600 has a disk space reporting problem but what does that mean ?
thanks

Re: EVA XCS version Upgrade Confusion
You will probably want to upgrade to XCS 6.100.
XCS 6.110 is only required for EVA4100/6100/8100. You could install that version, however that will require you to upgrade Command View EVA to version 7.0 which you may not want to do.
The fixes of 6.000 over 5.100 are found in the release notes here:
http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bc/docs/support/SupportManual/c00748668/c00748668.pdf
The release notes for 6.110 are here. The fixes in there will also apply to 6.100.
http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bc/docs/support/SupportManual/c01078026/c01078026.pdf
Hope this helps,
Regards,
Rob

Re: EVA XCS version Upgrade Confusion
It is not just a reporting problem - you could incur data loss!

Re: EVA XCS version Upgrade Confusion
One example of inaccurate disk space reporting problem with XCS 6.000 and below is that for things like Storage Essentials - you see inaccurate storage capacity reports and charts reflecting false EVA capacity utilisation. Makes the SE reports on EVA Capacity utilisation useless.

Re: EVA XCS version Upgrade Confusion
Do you have any further details or links to an advisory that indicates "data loss" issues with XCS v6.00 or below.
It would be fantastic if you do as this will give me more ammo to get our change request to get the EVAs upgraded expedited!
Thanks in advance.

Re: EVA XCS version Upgrade Confusion
As per the EVA latest software compatibility matrix: CV6.0.2 is also compatible with XCS6.110 (in addition to CV7.0)
on the other hand, is the XCS 6.0 issue also included in XCS 5.1?
Thanks
Farid
