Upgrading Teaming Utility

[John Vitale]

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Recently, we performed an upgrade to ProLiant Support Pack 7.10A

On several older servers, I cannot upgrade the Compaq teaming utility / driver to HP 7.41 (or newer versions for that matter).

The old software has no Add/Remove Programs entry, so you cannot remove it first.
Sometimes the old software just remains in place or sometimes it gets partially uninstalled. We also had 2 cases where it's no longer possible to configure Teaming at all (old utility doesn't work any more and the new one will not install).

How can I get rid of the old Compaq utility?

Hi John:

Go to MS network properties; uninstall Network and teaming configurations.

- and reinstall; if still having same issues

- then might have to uninstall Tcp/IP and reboot ; then reinstall tcp/ip and network teaming configurations.

- Make sure you don't have any nics teamed before uninstalling Configurations.
