  • Page 8: General Storeonce Maintenance Activities

    2 General StoreOnce maintenance activities Preparing for StoreOnce maintenance activities Make sure that you have the correct Maintenance and Service guide for your product. There are a number of different models, and each product model has its own guide. It is best practice to save the system configuration before carrying out maintenance activities and make sure it is copied to a local PC.
  • Page 9: Upgrading Bios Or Hardware Firmware Components

    Upgrading BIOS or hardware firmware components Do not upgrade BIOS or hardware firmware components individually using downloads from the HPE Support website because currently supported firmware component updates are already embedded within the StoreOnce software. Always use the StoreOnce CLI or the StoreOnce GUI to implement BIOS and hardware firmware component checks and updates.
  • Page 10: Upgrading Storeonce Software

    IMPORTANT: Do not shut down or reboot your system or any system component until the final step. Special instructions may apply. Use the hardware update firmware command, as required. For example, there may be instances where replacement hardware may need a firmware downgrade to bring it in line with the supported firmware version of the installed StoreOnce software on the system being maintained.

    5 The HP p1228 RAID controller The p1228 RAID card in a StoreOnce 4900 server The HPE StoreOnce 4900 Backup system uses the HP p1228 RAID controller fitted with a RAID cache module and SuperCapacitor. The HPE StoreOnce 4900 Backup has two RAID controllers.
  • Page 20: Location Of The Hp P1228 Raid Cards (Server Rear View)

    If a catastrophic failure of the boot RAID controller occurs, the system will not boot. This failure may only be diagnosed from the server POST messages where the controller may report an error or a lockup code. In these cases contact HP Support and provide information about the reported error code.
