Check Array Model, OS Version, and Operating State Using the CLI

Obtain information about your array before performing general maintenance, software updates, hardware replacements, or hardware upgrades.
  1. Check the model number and OS version of the array.
    array --info array name

    Note the Model and Version number.

  2. Check the operating state of the controllers.
    ctrlr --list
    IMPORTANT: One controller should be Active and the other in Standby. If any other state is shown, contact HPE Support.
