InterFamily Enginuity Upgrade, Enginuity Changes, System Changes

ETA: Celerra   bug: Symmetrix interfamily and in-family NDU upgrades may cause attached   Celerra systems to panic. Celerra will lose all paths connecting to the   Symmetrix. Even though all the paths and devices on the Symmetrix will come   back up in approximately 15 seconds, it may take Celerra longer to recover   completely from this event. Fixed with Celerra patch version 5.5.35.100 and   5.6.38.203. In the patch, the tolerated timeout value is changed from 90   seconds to 240 seconds.
