Storage Management Appliance Software V2.0 User Guide

Before You Update

The purpose of this installation is to update your Storage Management Appliance

Software from V1.0C to V2.0 on your Storage Management Appliance hardware.
This update requires that Storage Management Appliance V1.0C software

(January 2002 update) be installed. If your Storage Management Appliance is not

at the V1.0C level, consult the following website for information about bringing it

up to V1.0C before proceeding.

The additional V1.0C service packs listed on this website are not required prior to

the V2.0 update. If any of these service packs are installed they do not interfere

with the update installation.
You may, however, need to install some of the value-added HP storage

management applications and updates on V1.0C before updating to V2.0. Check

the Storage Management Appliance Software V2.0 Release Notes for more

information.
The Storage Management Appliance II currently ships with V1.0C software

installed and is at the appropriate prerequisite version for this update. HP strongly

recommends that you update all Management Appliances to V2.0 software with

this installation process.

Caution:

Always back up your data before performing major operations

such as installing this update.
