The HP P2000 G3 is HP’s entry level SAN, it’s a robost piece of kit, as long as you keep the firmware updated.

Before we upgrade the SAN firmware, let’s run through a couple of items.

Firmware
  1. Brick – It might happen, the SAN could become a brick after the firmware upgrade, always get a good backup of your data before you embark on the firmware upgrade.
  2. Downtime – Even though this can be done live, I recommend you arrange downtime, it’s just the sensible thing to do and gives you flexibility.
  3. Internet – This should go without saying, as you need to be able to download the drivers.
  4. Alarms/Monitoring – Turn this off for the SAN, as you will be inundated with emails/tickets.

Right then let’s crack on shall we.
