Hi Josh, Thanks for your msg but im out of support on this SAN. I will have a look at the links you sent. I may have more questions and will post them here. Thanks!

Hey Josh, as your link below, the following drives are updated but i dont have any of these drives in my SAN. Does that mean i can skip this part? Can you please let me know?

The drives i have in my SAN are

And there would be no need to remove LUN's as im not updating the disks? Thanks!

That’s right, you can skip that step if you don’t have those drives.

Yeah, you don’t need to.  

thanks, you've been very helpful.

So  just update RAID controllers and MPIO drivers? I have the instruction on how to do the RAID controller FW . But can i do this while in production? All i will need to do is transfer the role from RAID controller 0 to RAID controller 1 and update the RAID Controller 0 and follow same steps to do the 1?

Can you guide me to MPIO drivers thats installed on the hosts? 

Much appreciated! 

Yes, you can do that, but it is recommended to do it during a maintenance period where there is no I/O. MPIO drivers should be on the resource CD. https://dell.to/3tg90TX
