Re: Knowing Controllers Version and some others info
Controller A & B - HSV200
Software Version A & B - CR0EB0XC3P-6100
So I think my EVA is 6100 and not a 6400. What I need, then, to upgrade to 8100 or 84400?
Cheers and thanks in advance

Re: Knowing Controllers Version and some others info
The controller is an HSV200 which is used on EVA4000 and EVA6000. If it has two loop-switches it's an EVA6000 and can have up to 8 disk enclosures (112 disks). If it does not have loop-switches, it's an EVA4000 and can have up to 4 disk enclosures (56 disks).
An EVA8000 can have up to 18 enclosures (and 240 disks)
You can upgrade to an EVA8000 / EVA8100 by:
- Purchasing two new HSV210 controllers
- Purchasing additional loop switches
- Replacing the I/O modules in the enclosures if upgrading to EVA8100.

Re: Knowing Controllers Version and some others info
> HSV200
EVA4000/4100 (1..4 disk enclosures) or EVA6000/6100 (1..8 disk enclosures + loop switches).
As far as I can tell, one must decode the controller serial numbers to find out if the system uses HSV200 (2Gig) or HSV200-A (4Gig) or HSV200-B (4Gig / 4100/6100) controller modules.

Re: Knowing Controllers Version and some others info
What loop-switches means? A equipment installed on Rack? A software? Something else? (Sorry about this stupid questions but I'm learning now with yours help ;) )
So I need to upgrade every of this options:
- Purchasing two new HSV210 controllers
- Purchasing additional loop switches
- Replacing the I/O modules in the enclosures if upgrading to EVA8100.
Or just one of them or two?
Thanks again

Re: Knowing Controllers Version and some others info
HSV200 = NOT RoHS compliant
HSV200-A = RoHS compliant
This can be checked from the OCP via a menu option.
Not exactly a guarantee but if it has Model 352 switches then it is a HSV200 or 200-A.
If it has 852 switches then it could be an A spec but B spec MUST have them.

Re: Knowing Controllers Version and some others info
Ok, the EVA now is 2C6D wich make me think it's a 6100. So if I want to add two more enclosures to get 2C8D or maybe better get 2C12D what I'm need to do? Purchasing six new HSV210 controllers? Purchasing additional loop switches? Replacing the I/O modules in the enclosures if upgrading to EVA8100? All of them?
Cheers

Re: Knowing Controllers Version and some others info
It's an EVA6000. The 4100/6100/8100 came with firmare 6.110 minimum.
You can add two more disk enclosures.
If you want more, you need two loop-switches more and replace the controllers by HSV210 (so it becames a EVA8000).
Be aware that EVA4100/6100/8100 use controllers and enclosures that are not compatible with older EVAs. You need to have all controllers, switches, I/O modules and EMUs from the same generation, do not mix old and new parts.
