Windows 2003 server requires hotfix If the management server is running Microsoft Windows 2003, HP P6000 Command View may not display any array. To resolve this issue, you must install a Microsoft hotfix. Go to the following link for details and the hotfix download: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/945119 If you are using the server for storage only, not as a management server, you do not need to install this hotfix.
