For more detailed information about the controller, see the following documents, available on HP websites: • HP Smart Array P700m Controller for HP ProLiant Servers User Guide-Includes detailed hardware description and user information Important tips • In zoned solutions such as those using the MDS600 storage enclosure, the 512 MB model HP P700m Controller is required. In addition, for RAID 6 support, the battery option kit is required. • If needed, upgrade to the latest firmware version before use. • HP Smart Array Server Software is supported for use with the P700m and its servers, but it is important to note that the MSA2000 family does not use the Smart Array storage device management software tools of ACU, ADU, and Storage Event Notification Service. The MSA2000 family of storage enclosures use MSA2000-specific storage management software. For more information about the MSA, see "HP StorageWorks 2000sa Modular Smart Array" (page 31). • In BladeSystem solutions using the 3Gb SAS BL Switch, only one P700m is supported per server blade node. And, the mezzanine slot in which you install the P700m and the BladeSystem server device bay in which you install the server blade determine the BladeSystem interconnect bay in which you must install the SAS switches. For details about the relationship between the server type, mezzanine slot, server device bay, and interconnect bay, see the following tables.
