R2 Upgrade
This section describes issues related to upgrading to Windows Storage Server 2003 R2.
Issue: R2 upgrade requires Windows Server 2003 CD
Description When upgrading to Windows Storage Server 2003 R2, you are prompted to
insert the Windows Server 2003 CD because files cannot be located. There are
usually two files that cannot be located during the initial upgrade and one file
when finalization occurs.
Workaround The files are located on the CD under the i386 folder. To access a file:
1. Click OK. You are prompted for a location.
2. Click Browse, and then locate the file in the i386 folder.
3. Click Open, and then click OK.
Issue: The iSCSi Feature Pack must be uninstalled prior to upgrading to R2
Description The iSCSI Feature Pack is uninstalled when upgrading to Windows Storage
Server 2003 R2 because it can only be managed through the WebUI.
Workaround The iSCSI Feature Pack is not currently supported with Windows Storage Server
2003 R2. If iSCSI capability is needed, then you should not upgrade the server
to R2.
Issue: An unhandled exception message appears during an R2 upgrade over the network
Description When upgrading to Windows Storage Server 2003 from a network share, an
exception message appears that stops the upgrade from continuing.
Workaround Run the upgrade from the server and not over the network.
Issue: Localization script has no affect on Region and Language options
Description After upgrading to Windows Storage Server 2003 R2, the localization script
c:\hpnas\conv.vbs does not change the language settings of the system
through the Region and Language options.
Workaround The Multi-language User Interface (MUI) code will not be available when the R2
upgrade is released. The R2-based platforms are being developed to convert an
upgraded system to French, Italian, German, Spanish, Simplified Chinese,
Traditional Chinese, Korean, and Japanese, and will be made available as soon
as possible after development.
Issue: HP Insight Diagnostics fails after the R2 upgrade
Description The HP Insight Diagnostics may quit unexpectedly, or you may receive the
following message after an upgrade to Windows Storage Server 2003 R2 is
performed: HP Insight Diagnostics encountered a problem and
needed to close.
