3PAR OS 3.2.1

[cla@atea.dk]

3.2.1 Patch01 is out, so it should support remote copy and CLX with that one.
Can't see release notes yet though.

3.2.1 MU1 is out.

From release notes under Whats new:
Thin Deduplication
Thin deduplication provides the following benefits:
• HP 3P AR OS 3.2.1 MU1 enables in-line deduplication or Thin Deduplication on all the systems with GEN4 ASIC for the SSD tier only
• Thin Deduplication does not require any license.
• After upgrading to HP 3P AR OS 3.2.1 MU1 , if you have an SSD CPG you can provision TDVVs.
• Conversion to and from TDVVs is supported with a Dynamic Optimization license.
• Deduplication Estimation is enabled on all the platforms with HP 3P AR OS 3.2.1 MU1 .
• Deduplication is fully supported with replication, however data replication is not deduplication aware.
• Snapshot data of TDVVs is deduplicated if provisioned within the same of the base volume CPG.
• TDVVs cannot be part of a CPG part of an Adaptive Optimization Configuration.
• The maximum number of TDVVs allowed per CPG is 256.

NOTE: When using TDVVs, a higher controller node CPU utilization is expected. While the ASIC performs hashing and compares, the CPU is busy for the extra metadata lookups.

Now, if only I could actually find that update under our SAID so we could download it....

mastrboy,
3.2.1 MU1 iso is available on HP's ftp site.

disappointed with 3.2.1 MU1 to say the least. Deduplication on SSD tier only is a real bummer

FYI: one update 3.1.2 -> 3.2.1 went ok, but on a exact equal system the update fails with a checksum error on the image...

2 interesting tidbits under component versions:

file persona 1.0.0.5-20140730
VASA Provider 2.0.1

BTW: IMC 4.6.1 suppose to out soon

Any chance you could post the ftp address and subfolder where the ISO is located?
