Maintenance for Symmetrix
Hello all,
We are trying to develop a maintenance plan for our new SAN. We have been used to Equallogics which didn't require much maintenance, we upgraded the firmware about every 6 months and that was about it. Can any one share their experiences on regular maintenance that should be done, or provide a link to documentation around maintenance you have found helpful?
Thanks you kindly,
Steven

I think we have a firmware upgrade every 8 to 10 months - sometimes more frequent drive by a feature enhancement or deployment of a different product which provides synergy with the symmetrix line... Every 16 - 20 months I think we have a drive firmware upgrade.. Mostly it's driven by our local technical resources suggesting this...

we do major Enginuity upgrade every 1.5-2 years, epack (pathes) get installed more often as we see new ETAs that effect our environment.
