HP StorageWorks Simple SAN Connection Manager 2.10 release notes, Refresh the Server List

Page 7 highlights

Workaround: To correct this problem, reinstall the 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 pops up to confirm formatting or cancel. Workaround: None. This message will not impact the function, but a new pop-up appears for each new partition. Hit cancel to close the window. • Server name changes: If the name or other 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 done because SSCM matches up the HBA WWN with the saved server data. This saved data is not updated until a new broadcast or FDMI refresh is done. A server refresh is not performed on application start up or asynchronously while the application is open. Workaround: To see the new server name, use the Refresh the Server List option. • Creating partitions on the management station: Deleting LUNs presented to the management station may cause errors if new LUNs are created right after the old LUNs are deleted. The new LUNs may not be initialized and a drive letter not assigned. Workaround: Reboot the management station after deleting any LUNs that were presented to the management station. Then perform the template deployment or creation of any new LUNs. • Default zoning with null name error: If you create default zoning in SSCM with a null name and apply the changes, an error message states Create default zone error: Zone set creation failed and the current zones on the switch in QuickTools are deleted. Workaround: When setting the default zoning, you must specify a zone name, otherwise, applying the new default zoning will fail and will subsequently delete any previously existing zones.

To correct this problem, reinstall the 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

Format Drive
message pops up to confirm formatting or cancel.

None. This message will not impact the function, but a new pop-up appears for
each new partition. Hit cancel to close the window.
Server name changes:
If the name or other 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 done because SSCM matches up
the HBA WWN with the saved server data. This saved data is not updated until a new broadcast
or FDMI refresh is done. A server refresh is not performed on application start up or asynchronously
while the application is open.
Workaround:
To see the new server name, use the
Refresh the Server List
option.
Creating partitions on the management station:
Deleting LUNs presented to the management station
may cause errors if new LUNs are created right after the old LUNs are deleted. The new LUNs
may not be initialized and a drive letter not assigned.
Workaround:
Reboot the management station after deleting any LUNs that were presented to the
management station. Then perform the template deployment or creation of any new LUNs.
Default zoning with
null
name error:
If you create default zoning in SSCM with a
null
name
and apply the changes, an error message states
Create default zone error: Zone set
creation failed
and the current zones on the switch in QuickTools are deleted.
Workaround:
When setting the default zoning, you must specify a zone name, otherwise, applying
the new default zoning will fail and will subsequently delete any previously existing zones.
