Version: M113R11 Description This package delivers firmware for HP MSA2000 G2 array controllers and includes enhanced features or fixes to issues found during use and additional qualification testing. NOTE: Companion drive enclosure firmware is not included in this controller firmware package. When updating controller firmware, verify that firmware installed on all attached drive enclosures is up-to-date. If needed, upgrade the firmware on the drive enclosures. Supersedes: M112R14-03 Update recommendation: Critical An issue exists on HP MSA2000 G2 controllers running firmware versions M110R25 or M110R28 that will eventually cause controller configuration information to be lost, with subsequent loss of management capability from that controller. Array management, event messaging, and logging will cease functioning, but host I/O will continue to operate normally. This issue affects the ability to manage the array from the affected controller only; if a partner controller is available, the array can be managed through the partner controller. Because configuration information is stored in non-volatile memory, resetting or powering off the controller will not clear this error. If the issue occurs, the controller must be replaced. This failure mode is time sensitive and HP recommends immediately upgrading firmware on all HP MSA2000 G2 controllers to a version more recent than M110. This is not a hardware issue and proactive replacement of a controller is not a solution. To avoid this condition, you must upgrade your controller to the latest version of firmware. Versions of firmware that resolve this issue are in the following table.
