    Glen answered your question regarding the enabler: it will be sent to you on CD and you install it on the array via the NST.

    You have to be at a minimum FLARE revision to enable Virtual Provisioning, and .504 is the minimum so your are fine there. See the 4.28 FLARE release notes for more details.

    When I said you upgrade FLARE to upgrade VP that was in the context of regular FLARE updates. When FLARE is upgraded so are all the components.

    It is part of the FLARE code. It is "installed" through the use of an Enabler. Just like Snapview or SANCopy. When your FLARE code is upgraded so are all the features of FLARE like Snapview or Virtual Provisioning.

    The software is called an "enabler" and will require a reboot - these enablers are not available on powerLink. It will be sent to you.
