4 Installing the HP PCIe Workload Accelerator Software

Prerequisites

Review the following requirements before installing the HP PCIe Workload Accelerator support

pack software:

• The HP PCIe Workload Accelerator hardware must first be installed before installing the support

pack software in the host system.

• The system (both the operating system and all processors) must be 64-bit compatible.

• If using the HPWAM GUI, the 64-bit version of JRE version 1.6 or later must be installed on

the system prior to use.

• For new installs, the HP driver must be installed before the HP PCIe Workload Accelerator

hardware can be used and recognized by the system.

HPWAM performs firmware updates, secure erases, and other operations on a drive-by-drive basis.

This means that the specific drive to be updated must first be selected either in the server tree view

in the HPWAM GUI or by drive number in the HPWAM command line interface (CLI) before

operations on that drive can be performed.

Detailed instructions for using the HPWAM tool to perform operations on the drive are documented

in the HPWAM user guide. Please note that HPWAM has both GUI and CLI options available for

both the Windows and Linux operating systems. The HPWAM user guide is installed and available

in the directory where the HPWAM software is installed.
