Replace both controllers at the same time. To upgrade your RAID controllers,
complete the following steps.
Before you begin: Schedule the upgrade to take place at a convenient time,
because the storage server will be powered down during the upgrade process.
1. Open a management connection to the DS4300 using the Storage Manager
client.
2. Save the storage server profile to a disk location that is not in the DS4000
storage server that you are upgrading. In the Subsystem Management window,
select View-->Storage Subsystem Profile . When the Storage Subsystem
Profile window opens, click Save As . The Save Profile window opens. Select
an appropriate directory and choose a file name for the profile, then click
Save .
Click Close to close the Storage Subsystem Profile window.
3. Complete any necessary server preparation tasks, because the disks will not
be available during the upgrade process. For example, stop all programs,
services or processes in the host servers that access the logical drives.
Note: Make sure that you stop any background programs, services or
processes that write data to the logical drives. For example, Microsoft
MSCS periodically writes to the Quorum disk.
4. Use the Storage Manager client to flush and disable the read/write cache on
both controllers, using the following steps. Either check that the cache LED on
the back of the controller is off or wait two to three minutes.
a. In the Logical/Physical View of the Subsystem Management window,
right-click any of the logical drive tree nodes and select Change-->Cache
Settings . A Change Cache Settings window opens.
b. Click Select All to select all logical drives, and deselect all of the Cache
Setting Enable check boxes, then click OK . Click OK when the
Confirmation window opens.
