The internal search function is temporarily non-functional. The current search engine is no longer viable and we are researching alternatives.
As a stop gap measure, we are using Google's custom search engine service.
If you know of an easy to use, open source, search engine ... please contact support@midrange.com.
We do group PTFs regularly. Our current firmware shows to be behind. I assumed that meant it needed to be updated separately.
Thanks

Justin,
WIth a single partition and no HMC, you should not need to worry about "firmware" levels ... as long as you are applying all the CUMe and Group PTFs on a regular basis, that should take care of it for you automatically.
This is known as "OS-managed" firmware, vs. "HMC-managed." See:

for more information.
Hope that helps,
Mark S. Waterbury
