netapp host utilities 5.2 for HP-UX 11.11

kobusventer — Wed, 04 Jun 2025 09:45:48 GMT

We have an old HP-UX (11.11) system, running on a AFF-A300 system. However the new version of the host utilities does not support this version of HP-UX. Does anybody perhaps know where I will be able to download this package?

"Santools 6.0 does Not Support HPUX 11.11 – Is there an earlier version ?"

Hi there,

Reviewing the IMT - there is not a version of Santools which runs on HP-UX 11.11 which will work with the oldest OS which can run on an AFF-A300.

The only versions I see will only support 7-mode, which the A300 does not support. From memory, 7-mode LUNs will present slightly differently, so I believe that would be a hard stop on using older versions. HUKs usually do things like set timeout values, multipathing etc, so hopefully it's ok without it.

If you do still need HP-UX hostutils 5.2, please send me a message with your NetApp account representative's name and your corporate contact details, and I'll see what we can do.

Hi Alex,

Thanks for the feedback. That was an oversight from my side, not going to IMT first. However, I will send you a private message with my contact detail.
