Online Upgrade Considerations
This feature allows the upgrade of the InForm OS concurrently with I/O activity on the attached hosts,
provided certain conditions are met. For further information and planning Rolling Upgrades, refer to
the latest version of the HP 3PAR InForm OS Upgrade Pre-Planning Guide. To obtain a copy of this
documentation, see http://www.hp.com/go/3par/, navigate to your product page, click HP Support
& Drivers, and then click Manuals.
NOTE: Installing this Extended Maintenance Update (EMU) or any other MU may disconnect the
management interfaces, thereby ending the CLI and HP 3PAR InForm Management Console (IMC)
sessions and may generate alerts. This is an expected behavior. If the management interfaces are
disconnected, reconnect and start new CLI or IMC sessions.
