HP StorageWorks P2000 G3 FC and FC/iSCSI MSA Controller Firmware Release Notes (631269-005, February 2011)

Issue: The controller may not be in state from which it can upgrade.
Workaround: The upgrade process will reboot the management controller to resolve the state issue. The
upgrade will need to be retried.
Issue: During firmware upgrade, FTP is aborted from a Windows client after starting the upgrade.
Workaround: This is a client side FTP application issue. If this issue persists try updating from the SMU, use
another client, or use another FTP application.
Issue: Upgrading firmware failed with the error, “Unwritable cache data present”.
Workaround: The controller is not in a state which can reliably perform upgrade without losing data currently
in cache. Resolve the unwritable cache issue and retry the upgrade.
Issue: While updating the array firmware via the Storage Management Utility, if the array must reboot the
management controller the web page may not automatically log the user out completely resulting in a blank
page.
Workaround: Refresh the browser window; if the login page is not displayed, close the browser and restart
it to access the login page and complete the firmware update.
Issue: While performing a firmware update using the Storage Management Utility (SMU) to multiple arrays,
the window showing the status of the upgrade may appear as a blank window.
Workaround: Updating multiple arrays at the same time can cause this issue. Perform one firmware update
from one client at a time. Updating one array at a time from a client allows the window to refresh more
accurately.
