Hotfix hf7791

hf7791 upgrades the HP Smart Array Controller driver hpsa to the latest version 3.1.0-7. This is with respect to an advisory: HP Smart Array Controllers – driver upgrade required to prevent a read only Linux File System or an unresponsive server when a target reset is issued by the Smart Array Controller Driver for Linux (hpsa).

hf7791 is a mandatory hotfix only if using the server with the HP Smart Array Controller. hf7791 is for CA AppLogic® 3.1.14 and 3.5.19 when used for Xen-based grids (ESX-based grids are not affected by this hotfix).

This hotfix is for CA AppLogic® 3.1.14 and 3.5.19 Xen-based grids (and may not be used with any other CA AppLogic® version). This hotfix replaces files on the servers of the grid. Therefore, a grid reboot is required after applying this hotfix. If this hotfix is installed on a grid and afterwards a new server is added to the grid, this hotfix is automatically installed on the newly added server, however the newly added server must be rebooted for the hotfix to take effect. If a Xen-based grid is created and hf7791 is installed during the grid creation process, the grid needs to be rebooted after the grid creation has completed in order for the hotfix to take effect.
