Hi Nigel,
You can get HP to do it for the cost of a techo to come out and do it.
Will not cost much but you can get them to upgrade the firmware on
everything.
Make sure the drives individual firmware is upgraded and that they are
all the same. I've had weird issues before where nothing worked properly
until the firmware on all the drives was upgraded.
Also the controller cards, main board, etc.
Thanks,
Ben Donohue

Hi
Does anyone here speak HP fluently?
We have an HP MSA20 with 8 x 160GB SATA drives attached to a DL360G4
which is running CentOS Linux 4.8 (effectively RedHat Enterprise 4).
We have been suffering timeouts for some years where the MSA will stop
responding (or get VERY slow) - this can only be fixed by powering the
array off and on again.
Can anyone please advise me as to how I should upgrade the MSA20 to
the latest firmware and/or drivers? This is something we have never
attempted before.
Thanks and Regards
Nigel.
