Once you identified your disk and shelf firmware version of your environment, you can cross check withhttp://support.netapp.com/NOW/download/tools/diskfw/ site for latest disk-fw availability, if you don't have latest FW version you can upgrade your FW version.

For this case the disk model is "X412_S15K7560A15", so you need to compare by using this model from above web link.

For my case I already running latest disk FW so its require to upgrade FW until I get the new one.

For shelf FW go to http://support.netapp.com/NOW/download/tools/diskshelf/ weblink you can compare with current FW version, my case i have shelf FW version is IOM3 A/B: 0131. But from the weblink comparison there is a latest FW available to upgrade which is IOM3 rev 0132, so I require upgrading my shelf FW.

12. NetApp Storage system automation using ssh and rsh commands SSH is very much a secured protocol and a simple following statement states the need of SSH, rsh is a remote shell program that gives you a login connection on a remote machine. The protocol it uses passes your password in cleartext! Anyone sniffing the network between the two machins can capture your password. ssh uses black-magic encryption to encode your datastreams so that only the two machines can understand each other. This is a great scheme provided you can trust both machines! To make ssh/rsh to work for scripting the following steps should be followed/configured. Normally i use to run these type of scripts from DFM server

rsh.access host=xx.xx.xx.xx rsh.enable on trusted.hosts * e.g. rsh <filername/IP> <command> >> C:\log.txt
