This is the findings after opening a case a couple weeks ago about an error that came up the day after it was applied on my system. I'm told it doesn't affect anything and I can ignore the error. I guess that's the silver lining on my little 3par cloud? FYI P37 seems to be the replacement. |

I've done P30 and then a little while later did the P32 and P38 (didn't do P34 since don't have a 9450/20000) . Haven't noticed any issues. |

I went through an upgrade of a 20450 to 3.3.1 MU2 earlier today, with P30, P32, P34, and P38 applied. For us, they held back P37 due to unspecified issues with the latest firmware for DOPx drives. |

Thanks.. Drive firmware patches have often been conditional in the past so not always installed (typically done if you have drives with a major fix in the patch). Our recent 9450s have P32 P34 P37 (replaces P35) & P40 (replaces P30/P38), however no DOPx drives and the update was done by the installer not HPE support. There's also another drive firmware update around (P42) which needs P30 & P37 but doesn't seem to have public release notes yet. |

I have an update scheduled next week for P40, P41 and P45. Any issues that might cause me to abort the update? For P41 which is a cage firmware update I think, can it be done live? From what I read it seems like it will do a rolling update so just partially degraded for a few minutes while the update happens? |

HPE support installed yesterday the patches P41, P42 and P45 on our 3par 8200. The update was online, non-disruptive and we had no issues. The cage firmware update took only a few minutes, with no impact on performance. I hope this firmware is now stable, the release frequency of these patches is quite high. |
