How to upgrade E-Series SANtricity OS on storage controllers in StorageGRID appliances
Applies to
NetApp StorageGRID
Description
- This article describes the process to upgrade E-Series SANtricity OS or controller firmware in StorageGRID appliances.
- While the E-Series storage controllers in StorageGRID appliances use standard E-Series firmware, they do have special NVSRAM (non-volatile static random-access memory). The special NVSRAM MUST be loaded when upgrading the E-Series firmware.
The table below describes the E-Series controllers in each StorageGRID appliance model:
Appliance Model | E-Series Controller(s) | StorageGRID Controller(s) or Node |
SG6160 | 2x E4000 storage controllers | 1x SG6100-CN compute node |
SG58xx | 1x E4000 storage controller | 1x SG5800 compute controller |
SGF6024 | 2x EF570 storage controllers | 1x SG6000-CN compute node |
SG60xx | 2x E2800 storage controllers | 1x SG6000-CN compute node |
SG57xx | 1x E2800 storage controller | 1x E5700SG compute controller |
SG56xx | 1x E2700 storage controller | 1x E5600SG compute controller |
