PureDisk 6.5 and Hardware support
Hi,
Have any one testet to install PD on a HP DL380 G5 with a P800 and MSA60 disk shelf?
I have a problem regarding putting together a solution for customer becase the support matrix from Syantec revelse very narrow support for external storage..
Anyone?
I couldn't remember if we went with P800 on my servers or not, but with some digging I found that we did.
Here is an output from the HP ACU CLI running on one of my PureDisk 6.5.1 servers:
Smart Array P800 in Slot 2
Bus Interface: PCI
Slot: 2
Serial Number: P98690J9SVM0H6

RAID 6 (ADG) Status: Enabled
RAID 6 (ADG) Enabler Status: Enabled
Controller Status: OK
Chassis Slot:
Hardware Revision: Rev D
Firmware Version: 4.12

Cache Status: OK

I did not install any special drivers, nor did I have to jump through any hoops (except installing the HPACUCLI).
It works. It works out of the box.
