IMPORTANT:
• After upgrade from a pre-v5.3 P9000 Performance Advisor, ensure that you perform at least one
round of configuration data collection to get the correct usable capacity for a monitored P9000
disk array. For more information on configuration data collection, refer to the
HP StorageWorks
P9000 Performance Advisor User Guide
.
• If the upgrade does not complete, the installation wizard will automatically perform a roll-back
of P9000 Performance Advisor to the earlier version, from where you had initiated the upgrade.
• The installer log details are available in the PA_Install.log, which is available in the user's
Temp folder. Enter %Temp% environment variable at the command prompt to navigate to the Temp
folder. For the PA_Install.log to open, Windows Installer v4.0 or later should be installed
on the management station, and functioning properly.
If you face upgrade related issues, see “Troubleshooting P9000 Performance Advisor installation
issues” on page 129 for troubleshooting information.
