Description: Drive Box Back Plane Version.

This is the version of the drive box back plane. The following types are defined:

other(1) The agent does not recognize this drive storage system back plane.

proLiant(2) This is a ProLiant Storage System.

proLiant2(3) This is a ProLiant-2 Storage System.

proLiant3(4) This is a ProLiant-3 Storage System.

proLiant4(5) This is a 4th generation Proliant Storage System.

proLiant5(6) This is a 5th generation ProLiant Storage System.

What is cpqSsBoxBackPlaneVersion?

This read-only enumerated value identifies which generation of drive-box backplane is installed, ranging from other through several ProLiant generations. Administrators use it to know what backplane hardware generation they're dealing with when planning compatible drive or controller upgrades. For example, a value of proLiant3(4) tells the admin they have a third-generation backplane that may limit which drive types are supported.
