Hello,
I am looking to upgrade my systems Smart Array firmware ( P410 SAS )
Going to the drivers HP website I get lots of options but I am hoping to confirm that by downloading the CD-ROM( DVD )
Firmware - CD-ROM
9.30 (5 May 2011)
I get everything on to disk and then be able to upgrade using the disks ( system itranet )
Also, we are changing the OS ( RedHat 5 ) IO scheduler algorithm to use "noop" to take advantage of the hardware controllers IO algorithm, assuming it will be more efficient, any thoughts against doing this?
Our system seems to be working faster using noop but discovered that a few servers where not and found that they had older firmware on the hardware disk controller.
Thank you.
P.S. This thread has been moved Storage > General to ProLiant Servers (ML,DL,SL).
