HP StorageWorks 1500 Modular Smart Array Installation Guide
Installing MSA-specific components on the servers
Because these installation processes involve updating the server configuration, HP
recommends performing these tasks during inactive periods.
MSA-specific components include:
HBA drivers
Array Configuration Utility (ACU)
Array Configuration Utility-Command Line Interface (ACU-CLI)
(The ACU-CLI is not supported on IA64 platforms.)
Array Diagnostic Utility (ADU)
HP MPIO Full Featured Device Specific Module (DSM)
HP MPIO DSM (Device Specific Module) Manager
To install these components on the server, do the following:
1.
With the HBAs installed in the server, power on the server and start your
Windows operating system.
Note:
If the
New Hardware Wizard
is displayed, click
Cancel
to prevent installation of
an HBA driver that is unsupported for use with the MSA.
2.
Insert the MSA Support Software CD in the CD-ROM drive of the server and
let it auto-start the installation program. If the CD does not start automatically,
access the CD-ROM drive, browse the directory of the CD, and execute the
setup.exe
file on the CD.
Note:
If you created a new Support Software CD from the Web, insert that CD in the
CD-ROM drive of the server and do not use the shipping version of the CD. For more
information, see:
Determine which version MSA controller firmware to use
, page 17
Obtain desired controller firmware and Support Software CD versions
, page 61
The installation program scans the server to identify the HBAs and determine
which driver to install. This scan may take a few moments.
