HP StorageWorks Enterprise File Services WAN Accelerator 2.1.5 Release Notes (392363-004, June 2006)

IMPORTANT: Do not clear the data store before performing a software upgrade.

NOTE: The following upgrade instructions assume that you have a network of 10 WAN Accelerators

(WAN Accelerator-1 through WAN Accelerator-10). Initially, you will upgrade 3 WAN Accelerators

(WAN Accelerator-1 through WAN Accelerator-3).

Steps for upgrading from version 1.2.6 to version 2.1.5:

1. Connect to the Management Console on each HP EFS WAN Accelerator.

2. Install the version 2.1.5 image in the Setup (Software Upgrade page).

3. Save the current configuration in the Setup (Configuration Manager page).

4. Reboot the HP EFS WAN Accelerator in the Setup (Reboot WAN Accelerator page).

5. Connect to the CLI on each of the three HP EFS WAN Accelerators.

6. At the system prompt, enter the following commands:

SH > enable

SH # configure terminal

SH (config) # peer 0.0.0.0 version min 5

SH (config) # peer 0.0.0.0 version max 5

SH (config) # write memory

NOTE: This set of commands ensures that HP EFS WAN Accelerators with version 2.1.5 can

communicate with all HP EFS WAN Accelerators with version 1.2.6 in the network. To take advantage of

the version 2.1.5 features, configure the HP EFS WAN Accelerator with version 2.1.5 to communicate with

other HP EFS WAN Accelerators using the version 2.1.5 protocol.
