Firmware upgrade on Compellent SAN complete

Last night, I have performed a firmware upgrade on the two Storage Center Controllers (3988 and 5442).

This firmware upgrade resolves the problem that we experienced about a week ago where one of the controllers randomly shut down, due to a firmware bug in the cache card.

I have called Co-Pilot, and they have verified that everything is up and running. 8 of the disks on the enclosures also need a firmware update, however, in talking to support, they said that it was merely optional; and since it would be a service disrupting update, I decided to skip that one, as it does not resolve any imminent issues that we are currently experiencing.

This message is informative only, and requires no action on your part.

Happy Cinco De Mayo!
