Instal ation instructions
NOTE:

on the HP D2D Backup System wil be retained.
1. Save the firmware image file on a server or PC that is connected to the same subnet as the HP
D2D Backup System.
2. From a Web Browser, launch the HP StorageWorks D2D Backup System Web Management Interface
by typing in the IP address of the HP D2D Backup System to be updated.
3. Ensure that there are no current or scheduled backup jobs that will occur during the firmware update
period, because the HP D2D Backup System will reboot during the update process.

all LEDs returning to current system status (generally all green).
9. Reconnect to the Web Management interface to observe that the upgrade has completed successfully.
10. Manually log back on to the HP D2D Backup System iSCSI targets via the iSCSI initiator from each
system. Use the HP D2D Backup System as a backup target. Alternatively, if targets have been made
persistent (restore automatical y on reboot), simply reboot the host systems.

their emulation type changed to the new HP 1x8 G2 Autoloader emulation. To do this, use the
