Upgrade Powervault Drive or Disk Firmware Online
Hi,
It's a mess that the disk firmware of a Powervault ME4/ME5 must be done offline.
Could it be done online if I choose just one drive, and I go updating FW one by one or it's still disruptive?
Thanks in advance and regards

Hi,
The firmware updates are disruptive. The storage will stop all IO before the drives are being updated. You can select drives to update, but still, it will stop all IO, unfortunately.

Hello, when will this be enhanced, at least for the ME5?
HPE already supports this under the newly released MSA 2070.

Hi, Soon, it's in ROADMAP already.
I've heard it will be available in Q2 2025, it's a feature called:
Intelligent Drive Firmware Updates.
