11.5 HP StoreVirtual Storage Release Notes
NOTE: Patches 10136 and 10137, which contain a firmware update for the RAID controller on
specific platforms, are automatically applied during the 11.5 upgrade. These patches are applied
before the LeftHand OS software is upgraded and they require a reboot. Depending on the size of
your configuration, the patch installation could take a few minutes to a few hours to complete. Plan
the upgrade accordingly.
HP recommends upgrading firmware before upgrading to Version 11.x. Firmware upgrades require
rebooting the storage systems. Completing required firmware upgrades first ensures the Version 11.x
upgrade is accomplished more quickly. Review HP SPOCK for firmware updates at:
