SUMMARYA1000 firmware upgrade

Hello all,
It appears that many people have similar problem as I did. 
Several patches have to be installed before the raid can be 
seen by the host. Sun FE was not fully trained for such an 
upgrade but burning the controller during the upgrade was not 
really his fault, it is common as I got from feed back.
The following URL explains most of the steps involved in the 
upgrade, but prepare yourself for a controller replacement 
ahead of time.
