Hello!
We have server DL380 G7 with P410i controller. Our goal is to create RAID 6 array using this controller. We really need it.
It turned out that SAAP 1.0 license is required for that. But all our suppliers told us that this postion (part number) is no longer available for request so we can not buy this license.
All i can find on HPe site is interesting statement in HP SSA download description. It says "HP Smart Array Advanced Pack 1.0 and 2.0 features are now part of the baseline features of HP SSA, with the appropriate firmware."
Our controller is on current firmware 6.64(b). But it seems that is still have licensing engine and requires SAAP 1.0 license.
So what are HP plans for SAAP 1.0 license? Is it free? Is it going to be free? If yes - when? If nope - how we can buy it / what is replacement?
Thanks!
