The Version box will still display 6200. IMPORTANT: During a typical update, the command view interface may become responsive before all EMU updates are done. If this occurs, the attention icon appears and disk drives in the enclosures will show as unmappable hardware. This state is typically resolved within about 10 minutes of EMU completion. Just wait until the state is resolved. Figure 16 Verifying XCS version after upgrading . NOTE: After upgrade of the controllers, the array may not be visible from HP Command View EVA.

It can take 30 seconds to 3.5 minutes per drive to upgrade the firmware. Review the following guidelines and tips before proceeding with the upgrade: • The firmware on all disk drives can be upgraded online. • Disks with Vraid0 cannot be upgraded online. • Although it is not required that the disk drive firmware be upgraded at the same time as the system software, it is strongly recommended that you perform the two tasks together.
