This chapter explains how to install Hardware Providers (HWP) and other required software. When
you install HWP, all the features of VDS and VSS are enabled, including point-in-time copies of LUNs
and storage virtualiza tion management.
If you have not already configured the server and the array as instructed in “Chapter 2 Configuration,”
do so now before you install the HW P software. HWP will no t work if the a rray and server h ave not
been correctly configured before you install HW P .
IMPORTANT NOTE: The right combination of software versions is cruc ia l to configuring a working system.
Refer to the Release Notes accompanying the HP HWP installation files for information about compatible
software versions and system configurations.
