Determining firmware levels
To determine the firmware levels of the DS3200 storage subsystem, the connected
storage expansion enclosures, and the installed hard disk drives, use the DS3000
Storage Manager software that is used to manage the DS3200 storage subsystem.
In the Subsystem Management window, click the Summary tab; then, click Storage
Subsystem Profile in the Hardware Components section. When the Storage
Subsystem Profile window opens, click the All tab and scroll through the Profile
For Storage Subsystem to locate the following information.
Note: The Profile For Storage Subsystem contains all the profile information for
the entire subsystem. Therefore, you might have to scroll through a large
amount of information to locate the firmware version numbers.
