Before resuming I/O access to the MSA, verify that the MSA and its storage arrays are online. Using the SCSI CAM Utility (Tru64 UNIX) NOTE: If you are updating the MSA controller firmware to version 4.24 or later and you plan to install version 5.1A on your AlphaServer, the following sequence is required: • Update the MSA controller firmware to version 4.24 or later using the factory installed version 5.1B system disk. • Install version 5.1A on your AlphaServer. NOTE: If you are updating the MSA controller firmware to version 4.24 or later and your server has one CD-ROM drive and no diskette drive, use one of the following recommended processes: • Install the Tru64 UNIX operating system on to a local disk. • Update the MSA controller firmware. • Install or back up the Tru64 UNIX operating system onto an MSA logical unit. -OR- • Connect to another AlphaServer that supports firmware updates. • Update the MSA controller firmware. • Reconnect to the AlphaServer. • Install the Tru64 UNIX operating system onto an MSA logical unit. NOTE: The following procedure uses an example configuration of one MSA with two controllers. Use information from your configuration to install the firmware. 1. Obtain the firmware files as instructed in Obtaining MSA support software or controller firmware. 2. From Tru64, enter the following command to determine the hardware ID (HWID) of each MSA: > hwmgr view device | grep MSA | grep -v VOLUME After a few moments, the following information is displayed: HWID: Device Name Mfg Model 115 /dev/cport/scp0 MSA CONTROLLER Location : bus-0-targ-0-lun-0 1000/1500 Modular Smart Array firmware updating guide 31

NOTE:
If you are updating the MSA controller
rmware to version 4.24 or later and you plan to install version
5.1A on your AlphaServer, the following sequence is required:
Update the MSA controller
rmware to version 4.24 or later using the factory installed version
5.1B system disk.
Install version 5.1A on your AlphaServer.
NOTE:
If you are updating the MSA controller
rmware to version 4.24 or later and your server has one
CD-ROM drive and no diskette drive, use one of the following recommended processes:
Install the Tru64 UNIX operating system on to a local disk.
Update the MSA controller
rmware.
Install or back up the Tru64 UNIX operating system onto an MSA logical unit.
—OR—
Connect to another AlphaServer that supports
rmware updates.
Update the MSA controller
rmware.
Reconnect to the AlphaServer.
Install the Tru64 UNIX operating system onto an MSA logical unit.
NOTE:
The following procedure uses an example con
guration of one MSA with two controllers. Use information
from your con
guration to install the
rmware.
1.
Obtain the
rmware
les as instructed in
Obtaining MSA support software or controller

2.
From Tru64, enter the following command to determine the hardware ID (HWID) of each MSA:
> hwmgr view device | grep MSA | grep -v VOLUME
