Series Storage Systems
Disk and OE Matrix
P/N 302-000-318
To function properly, disks in an EMC
®
VNX
®
system require that each storage processor run
minimum revisions of the EMC VNX Operating Environment (VNX OE). This document lists the
disk part numbers supported for EMC VNX series storage systems and the minimum software
revisions required for each disk model.
CAUTION
Verify that the proper version of VNX OE is running on the storage system before
installing any disk drives. Results ranging from non-recognition of the drives to
data loss may occur if an improper VNX OE version is installed.
Before installing a new disk in a storage system, use the EMC Unisphere
Manager to determine
the VNX OE revision running on the storage system. In Unisphere Manager, the VNX OE
revision appears on the
Software
tab of the
Storage System Properties
dialog box for the storage
system. If this revision is lower than the minimum VNX OE revision required for the disk as
listed in
Table 1 or Table 2
you must upgrade the VNX OE on the storage system before
installing the disk. EMC recommends that you upgrade VNX OE using the wizards in the System
Software section of the Unisphere Service Manager (USM).
Note 1:
Changes and additions in the tables since the last revision of this document are
noted in
red
type.
Note 2:
The disk part number (PN) appears on a label on the front of the disk carrier. Note
that although the OE GUI may display an alpha suffix at the end of the PN (like PWR or
SSD) these characters are not part of the actual orderable PN.
