Updating Firmware After installing the hardware and powering up the enclosure for the first time, be sure to verify that the controllers and drive enclosures have the latest firmware. SMU enables you to view the software, hardware, and other version information for each controller and the enclosures. To view controller version information, select Monitor > Status > Advanced Settings > Controller Versions.To view drive enclosure information, select Manage > Update Software > Enclosure Firmware > Show Enclosures. For software and firmware updates, go to http://www.hp.com/go/msa. Select MSA SAN Arrays, select your product, and go to Support. Setting the Date and Time You can set the date and time manually or configure the system to use Network Time Protocol (NTP) to obtain them from a network-attached server. When NTP is enabled, and if an NTP server is available, the system time and date can be obtained from the NTP server. This allows multiple storage devices, hosts, log files, and so forth to be synchronized. NTP server time is provided in Universal Time (UT), which provides several options: ■ If you want to synchronize the times and logs between storage devices installed in multiple time zones, set all the storage devices to use UT. ■ If you want to use the local time for the device, set its time zone appropriately. 54 HP StorageWorks 2012fc Modular Smart Array user guide • March 2008

Setting the Date and Time
You can set the date and time manually or configure the system to use Network
Time Protocol (NTP) to obtain them from a network-attached server. When NTP is
enabled, and if an NTP server is available, the system time and date can be obtained
from the NTP server. This allows multiple storage devices, hosts, log files, and so
forth to be synchronized.
NTP server time is provided in Universal Time (UT), which provides several
options:
■
If you want to synchronize the times and logs between storage devices installed
in multiple time zones, set all the storage devices to use UT.
■
If you want to use the local time for the device, set its time zone appropriately.
