Hi,
     I thought that I had seen this addressed previously, but I couldn't
find it in the archives. We are currently running T64 5.1 and plan to
upgrade to 5.1B. One of our systems, standalone, not clustered, has a BA370
with a single HSZ70 controller and all RAID sets either RAID-1 or RAID-0+1.
Since the HSZ70 will not be supported under 5.1B, the simplest solution
seems to be to just swap the HSZ70 with the HSZ80. Is it really that easy?
I haven't placed a service call with HP to get the answer but the sales folk
are hazy about it. Doing a full backup/restore would work but I would like
to have less down-time. I could probably temporarily borrow an extra host
adapter to allow the HSZ70 and HSZ80 to be used simultaneously during a
cut-over if that would help. Thanks and I will summarize.
