Hello All,
I have an EVA6000. I have to install new hard drives but, all my firmware is VERY out of date. This will be the first time upgrading any of the firmware so I'm a little nervous. I have two controllers:
Model: HSV200
Software Version: CR0D63xc3p-6000
We are also running Command View 7.0. We have version 9 but have not yet upgraded.
So, here are some questions I have:
1. Should the firmware on the hard drives be upgraded before or after the firmware on the controllers?
2. Can I go directly to the new Firmware version or do I need to upgrade to a lower version first, then to the newest?
3. Does the EVA need to be taken "Offline" to do the upgrade?
4. Is there a way to backup the controllerтАЩs current configuration in case something goes wrong?
I'm hoping HP has a guide or to draw on other's experience with upgrading their systems. Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks again!

Before you start to upgrade to version 6220, you should get the bits from http://software.hp.com (search for "XCS") and also read and understand the release notes.
Some general answers to your questions (be aware - read the notes!):
1) first upgrade commandview (you need a license!), then the controller firmware, then the drives
2) yes, upgrade directly
3) this is an online upgrade, but the system should not be "under pressure"
4) yes, take a SSSU capture config
Hope this helps!
Regards
Torsten.
