76 MSA1000 Installation Guide
Installing the Fibre SCSI ECO Kit on your OpenVMS Server
1. Locate the MSA1000 that requires the firmware upgrade.
If the MSA1000 has a dual-controllers, remove the secondary (left) controller

c. If there are other OpenVMS systems in the SAN, make sure that they
have the Fibre SCSI ECO kit installed and are rebooted before reinstalling
the left controller.
