Page 7 highlights

• SSCM fails to start: If you install SSCM with the MSA only option, and HP Command View EVA is installed, SSCM will fail to start. The error RegOpenKeyEx failed with error 2: The system cannot find the file specified is displayed when you attempt to start SSCM. Workaround: To correct this problem, reinstall SSCM and select the EVA only or the EVA and MSA option if an array is present in the configuration. If no EVA is present, uninstall the HP Command View EVA suite. • IA64 BIOS update: The HBA driver update feature for Windows on IA64 is not supported in SSCM. • Format drive message: During partition creation and formatting for LUNs for Windows Server 2008, a Windows Format Drive message is displayed to confirm formatting or cancel. Workaround: None. This message will not impact the operation, but a new confirmation window is displayed for each new partition. Click Cancel to close the window. • Server name changes: If the name or another attribute of a server being managed by SSCM is changed independent of SSCM, SSCM continues to display the original name, even after restarting. The server change is not detected until a Server Refresh is performed because SSCM matches up the HBA WWN with the saved server data. The saved server data is not updated until a new broadcast or FDMI refresh is performed. A server refresh is not performed on application startup or asynchronously while the application is open. Workaround: To see the new server name, use the Refresh the Server List option. HP StorageWorks Simple SAN Connection Manager 2.20 release notes 7
