There is a new version of IMC that can be downloaded from :
https://h20575.www2.hp.com/tsusbportal/ ... o?lc=EN_US

Haven't found a change log yet but the once i see clearly are:

*Bug with Remote Copy : When you create a new group and add volume you where not able to see the create target volume. This is now fixed.
*Peer Motion config added and should support any device running 3.1.2
*LDAP Configuration can now be done in GUI.
*Volume Creations now comes with the option to export volume to host after creation.
* Export Volume finally got a search option for both volumes and hosts.
* Added HP Logo :D

Thanks Christian,

GUI for the LDAP should be nice, for that 1 time per install lifecycle it's needed :)

Be very careful with IMC 4.3.0.71 when creating a new CPG.

When you create a new CPG, there is no more option to select the <Default> Step Size and it will automatically pick the lowest available value (32KiB) if you don't change it manually. RAID-5 default should be 128KiB.

here's the showcpg -sdg output of a CPG created using IMC 4.3.0.71

Code:
test-cpg-only    -     - 32768 -t r5 -ha cage -ssz 5 -ss 32 -ch first -p -devtype FC

To fix, edit the CPG in IMC and change the Step Size to 128KiB, it should change to this:

Code:
test-cpg-only    -     - 32768 -t r5 -ssz 5 -ss 128 -p -devtype FC

I opened a case w/ HP regarding this and they confirmed that it's a bug. There's also a customer advisory sent by HP today http://alerts.hp.com/r?2.1.3KT.2ZR.%5fA ... 5fRTEHca00

Can anyone that has not updated tell me what the step size should be for RAID 6 NL with a set size of 6+2? All of the docs just say the step size for R6 depends on the set size.
