RAID 4Si PCI 4 port Ultra2 SCSI RAID A5856A and Hpux v2

Hello.

After update from Hpux 11 v1 to Hpux v2 (not a cold install), the HP RAID 4Si
software disappears from the output of swlist command.

The irm, irdiag and irdisplay commands give output errors

Unknown command

IRM was running very well before update

May questions are:

Is RAID 4Si PCI 4 port Ultra2 SCSI RAID A5856A still supported by Hpux v2 ?

If yes, is there is there another software to manage the storage? if not,

Can' I reinstall the old HP RAID 4Si software on Hpux v2 (rp5470 server)? And where can ‘I find it?

 A5856A bord is not support by HP since 2010

 

if any one have informations about this

 

Best regards

Omar

From an older document "HP-UX Supported I/O Cards Matrix":

 

RAID 4si is only supported with 11.11, not with 11.23 and 11.31.

Hello,

Many thanks for your help and for this information.

So, it is very clear, we have to choose between old version of Hpux or change the storage.

Please if you can send me this document or the link for downloads it.

Thank a gain

Best regards

Omar
