Update 3PAR

[Pogreb]

Hi!

I am updating 3PAR 8200
Current software version: 3.3.1.410 (MU2) + P32, P34, P36, P39, P40, P45, P51, P52, P76, P90, P93, P96, P111, P113, P115, P127
I am trying to install patch 142 and I get a warning
This patch requires that the Upgrade Tool version currently be at U032 or higher.

I downloaded the new version of Upgrade Tool 038
How do I install the new version of Upgrade Tool 038

Hi Pogreb,

When connected with HPE InfoSight, the latest version of the HPE 3PAR Upgrade Tool is automatically downloaded and
installed. Without HPE InfoSight, you must manually download the latest version of the HPE 3PAR Upgrade Tool and load
it using the HPE 3PAR GUI on the System/Software page. The Upgrade Tool will be used when installing the next update,
quality pack, or full HPE 3PAR OS release. It will also be used to unstage revoked update packages and revoked OS release
packages.

And point to the iso file Upgrade Tool ?

[Anjum_IK]

yes , you can then point it to the ISO File.

I'm sorry, but please clarify.
I need to go to the Service Console - Systems - Action - Update HPE 3PAR OS and select my iso file - HPE_3PAR_SW_Upgrade_Tool_U038_QR482-11581.iso ?

Hi  Pogreb,

Below is the Procedure: 

1. Log in to the Service Console.
2. Open the Service Console main menu and select Systems. Only one available storage system is displayed in the list.
3. Select the storage system. An overview of the storage system is displayed.
4. On the Actions menu, select Update HPE 3PAR OS. The Update window appears.
5. Load the Upgrade tool. Always load the Upgrade tool for both patch and non-patch updates. If the Upgrade tool
package is not listed in the Available update package(s) list, from the Select Update view, of the Update dialog,
select Load a different update package. Then select one of the following options:
• ISO image—Either drag or drop the image file in the file drop box or select Choose File to browse the local system
for the file. When the file appears in the box, click Start upload.

For all options, once selected, the software package is displayed as the default in Available update package(s).

NOTE: At this point, you have only loaded the Upgrade tool. Selecting the Run Checks option during the update of the
HPE 3PAR OS will automatically install the Upgrade tool.

Hope this helps!

[Pogreb]

Guess you are missing the required patches?

[Cali · Accepted solution]

Update Tool is Installed the same way as Patches.

And after Uploading and Staging U38, no U38 in the Drop Down here:

Sometimes it does not switch to the right Package.

Thank you very much, everything worked out.
After loading AT, I selected it from the drop-down menu and everything was installed
