HP StorageWorks MSL4048 Tape Library firmware release notes Firmware version 8.
© Copyright 2012 Hewlett-Packard Development Company, L.P.
Version: 8.10 Description This release includes updated firmware for the HP StorageWorks MSL4048 Tape Library. The Library firmware can be updated through any of the following methods: • Remote management interface (RMI). • Operator control panel (OCP) using a USB flash drive. • HP Library and Tape Tools (L&TT). Library firmware version 8.10 Compatible robotics firmware version 3.10e Update recommendation Recommended Supersedes All previous versions of Library firmware.
Fixes Version 8.10 • Improved vertical positioning algorithms to reduce the occurrence of errors 8A 4B (Destination full or blocked) and 8A 4D (Could not pull tape out of slot). • Fixed a case where the library reports Not Ready status after ‘hot plugging’ the library LUN hosting drive, even though the RMI and OCP indicate that the library and drives are Ready. This failure to initialize the drive interface after ‘hot plugging’ is corrected.
Compatibility note When using firmware version 6.70 or newer revisions with the Encryption Kit, any key server tokens set with an odd number of characters for the PIN will not be totally backwards compatible in Autoloaders or Libraries with code revisions 2.10, 4.00, 6.30, or 8.70.
