Click Disk Storage Systems under Storage, and then select the appropriate product under

EVA Disk Arrays.

the following website and install it using the instructions included with the firmware file. Do not

add the disk to a disk group if it is running an unsupported firmware version.

NOTE:

When downloading the firmware, use the disk model number to locate the correct firmware

file. If you have difficulty locating the correct firmware, contact your HP-authorized service

representative for assistance.
If you are running XCS 6.000, verify that leveling is not in progress before upgrading the disk drive

firmware. In HP Command View EVA, go to the General tab of the Disk Group Properties window

and verify that the Leveling field displays Inactive. If it displays Active, wait for leveling to complete

before performing the upgrade. This does not apply if you are running XCS 6.100 or later.
