15. Before resuming I/O access to the MSA, verify that the MSA and its storage arrays are online.
Using the SC SI 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 co
ntroller 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 U NIX 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 O btaining MSA suppor t software or controller firmware.
2. From Tru64, enter the following comm a nd 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 Location :
115 /dev/cport/scp0 MSA CONTROLLER bus-0-targ-0-lun-0
