HP StoreOnce Backup system
Conversion from 2.x.x software to 3.4.x (or
later) software user guide
Abstract
HP is offering existing StoreOnce D2D Single Node customers the ability to convert their appliance's existing software from
2.x.x to the new 3.4.x (or later) StoreOnce software for free. HP StoreOnce 3.4.x (or later) software is significantly different
to 2.x.x software and, as such, the conversion process is data and configuration destructive. It is recommended that ONLY
customers who need to take advantage of the new features convert their products. The conversion process is described in this
user guide.
Please note that earlier versions of StoreOnce 3.x.x software are not appropriate for this conversion.
Use the checklist at the end of this document to assist you in the conversion process.
IMPORTANT:
The following older products running 2.x.x software are
not
supported for conversion:
•
HP StoreOnce D2D4106fc Backup system: EH998A
•
HP StoreOnce D2D4112 Backup system: EH993B
