3Par Virtual Service Processor

[APedrazzini]

Hi,

  I need the Virtual Serivce Processor for 3Par 8200 (I'm going to deploy it on VMWare) but I can't find any download link: I only managed to find the "HPE Storage Integration Pack for VMware vCenter" and "Primera & 3PAR SSMC" ovfs.

Can someone help me?

Thank you

Hi all,

  thank you for you help, unfortunatly I still can't find a link to download the VSP.

My HPE Software Center shows the following activations:

As you can see, the products have been activate in 2016: right now the guy who managed the installaction, activation and the contract does not work here anymore.

We have been tasked to move the infrastructure from one datacetner to another: we have already changed the 3par ip (the network from in the 2 DCs are different) and we are able to reach it via cli (ssh), we also configured the SSMC and we managed to connect it to the 3par:

but we're stuck on the "management"/VSP of the appliance itself.

...moreover, how can I find if my company still has a valid contract with HPE?

Thank you

Hi,

Licensed Software and Contracts are in https://myenterpriselicense.hpe.com/

If I choose "Product Family" > 3PAR, it is today the first.

You can enter the 3AR Serial here to check for a valid contract:

Hello,

  in the end, my company has not a valid contract with HPE (it's ended last year and it has not been renewed).

Because we just found out there's an hardware fault on the 3par (looks like a battery problem), we are going to renew it in september and after that, If i got it correctly, I should be able to see the Service Processor listed in the download section.

Meanwhile I managed to make the old one work again, connect it to the 3par and upgrade both the 3par and SP.

Thank you all for the help and support you gave me.

Kind regards and have a nice week end

I have configured the VSP 5.1.1 in ESXi 7.x and the console can be accessed. Both SP and Storeserv(8200) are in same subnet. However I am unable to discover the serial number OR reach the Storeserve via IP. ANy guidance.
