We are planning migration of Alpha servers from one to another storage, and storage vendor requires upgrade of driver and firmware of HBAs.
Required versions are: driver 2.14 / firmware 3.92A2.
Now, the question is: from hp site only fw can be downloaded (what we actually did), but even after upgrading with last fw (3.93A0), driver version stays 2.11, so the requirement is not reached. How can I upgrade driver from 2.11 to 2.14 ??
As I now, and as far as I'm administering Tru64, I have never installed driver for HBA, since Tru64 has its own drivers. Am I right ??
You comments will be appreciated !
Thanks
Solved! Go to Solution.

The HBA drivers are normally built into the OS itself. To upgrade the drivers to the latest version, the normal approach would be to install the latest patch kit for Tru64.
Cheers,
Rob

Re: HBA (FCA 2354) driver & firmware upgrade ??
Thanks for fast response !!
Forgot to mention:
The server I was talking about was
Tru64 5.1A with the LATEST PK6.
But also, Vladimir, I have 5.1 (just 5.1) which should be with drv. 2.14 (current is 2.02), and there is no 5.1 on the link that you've posted.

Re: HBA (FCA 2354) driver & firmware upgrade ??
Is there a special reason for version to be 5.1?

No chance to do upgrade of 5.1 to 5.1A/B because it is business critiical server, and the applications running on it require strictly 5.1 !

I guess you may need to start talking to your application vendor.
Cheers,
