HPE P4000 VSA 12..6 Upgrade Issue

[CaymanPort]

I just tried to upgrade our 4 node + FOM to v12.6.  The upgrade went fine without any error messages but only the FOM is showing version 12.6 - my 4 storage nodes still say 12.5.  The CMC says all systems are fully up to date (not including some optional language packs).  I have tried manually restarting one of the nodes but it still comes up as 12.5 after rebooting.  Restarting the CMC does not help either.  Does anyone have any suggestions?

Hi,

in Release Notes of version 12.6 is Note: P4000 G2 platforms (P4900 G2, P4800 G2, P4500 G2, and P4300 G2) are not supported with Version 12.6 ...

I don't think what I'm running is a P4xxx G2 system?  I think all of the G2 platforms are phsyical devices.  What I have are the P4000 VSAs.

maybe its a memory issue.  how must memory is each VM assigned?  I think it went up un v12+ and you should have 4GB min and greater depending on the VM's capacity.

Each node has 5.5TB of storage and is assigned 8gb of memory and 2 CPU cores.  There are 2 nodes per site using network RAID 10.

Hi,

sorry, I overlooked the word VSA.

Maybe you licence expired on VSA... Look here: http://community.hpe.com/t5/HPE-StoreVirtual-Storage/VSA-perpetual-licensing-no-longer/td-p/6762199

No, all of my nodes have been running the VSA software since v7 and we have a perpetual licence.  We upgraded to 12.5 earlier this year without issue.
