HP P2000 HP StorageWorks P2000 G3 FC and FC/iSCSI MSA Controller Firmware Rele - Page 10

The following fixes were incorporated in the Storage Management Utility SMU - iops

Page 10 highlights

• Schedules created from controller B for a vdisk owned by controller A are now acknowledged by controller A and will run. • Improved the ability to create schedules while I/O is occurring. • Improved CIM_PhysicalElementLocation associations. • Removed DateTime values from SMI-S objects to resolve formatting issues. • Improved reliability of updating disk firmware when multiple disks selected for update. • Added an extra retry to improve reliability of EMP firmware update for a rare failure scenario. • Improved the validation for times in DSD schedule specifications. • Fixed messages for issues with snap pools for Universal LUN Presentation (ULP) mode. • Improved reliability of strings to be translated for Remote Snap operations. • Removed erroneous IP data error events. • The configuration of a new iSCSI controller with default values now updated to existing array configuration on first boot. • No longer spin up all drives when changing cache parameters for a volume. • Removed erroneous Unit Attentions during cable pull in arbitrated loop mode. • Fixed drive enclosures reporting a TRGT DETECTD ERR on power up. • Fixed I/O error handling on initial drive detection to resolve controller crash. • Fixed an issue where a volume mapped as LUN 0 may be designated as a SCSI Enclosure Services (SES) device by hosts. • Corrected a situation where a local replication (a replication where both the primary and the secondary volumes reside on the same array) could cause a controller to crash. • Modified event reporting to prevent excessive messages for license conditions. • Improved replication reliability where replications would queue and not complete. • Fixed an issue where a controller might hang during failover or failback with DSD enabled. • Fixed an issue where a controller might "kill" the other during Power-On Self-Test (POST). • Improved RAID 10 and RAID 50 vdisk recovery during failover or failback. • Fixed a controller hang during drive firmware update (DFU). • Changed the behavior so that adding a global spare to a RAID 6 vdisk that is actively reconstructing and has I/O occurring no longer removes the drive being reconstructed from the vdisk. • Fixed an issue where multiple drives were lost during DSD spin down or spin up when vdisks are reconstructing. • Improved controller reliability to prevent remote system hangs. • Increased flexibility of capitalization of iSCSI host IQN. • Resolved a condition where an erroneous negative value was reported for IOPS and Bytes per second statistics. • Fixed critical error while computing cache statistics. • The following fixes were incorporated in the Storage Management Utility (SMU): • The Drive Spin Down Suspend Period is now displayed. • The SMU will only allow up to 128 volumes to be selected, enforcing the same restrictions as the CLI, to prevent issues with large numbers of items. • Attempting to enable Drive Spin Down (DSD) and specifying the time to suspend and time to resume without checking the Drive Spin Down Suspend Period box now succeeds without attempting to create a schedule. • Fixed the non-English DSD page. • Improved dataset retrieval to alleviate a responsiveness issue. • Fixed the EMP firmware version displayed after upload. 10

Schedules created from controller B for a vdisk owned by controller A are now acknowledged by
controller A and will run.
Improved the ability to create schedules while I/O is occurring.
Improved CIM_PhysicalElementLocation associations.
Removed DateTime values from SMI-S objects to resolve formatting issues.
Improved reliability of updating disk firmware when multiple disks selected for update.
Added an extra retry to improve reliability of EMP firmware update for a rare failure scenario.
Improved the validation for times in DSD schedule specifications.
Fixed messages for issues with snap pools for Universal LUN Presentation (ULP) mode.
Improved reliability of strings to be translated for Remote Snap operations.
Removed erroneous IP data error events.
The configuration of a new iSCSI controller with default values now updated to existing array
configuration on first boot.
No longer spin up all drives when changing cache parameters for a volume.
Removed erroneous Unit Attentions during cable pull in arbitrated loop mode.
Fixed drive enclosures reporting a TRGT DETECTD ERR on power up.
Fixed I/O error handling on initial drive detection to resolve controller crash.
Fixed an issue where a volume mapped as LUN 0 may be designated as a SCSI Enclosure Services
(SES) device by hosts.
Corrected a situation where a local replication (a replication where both the primary and the
secondary volumes reside on the same array) could cause a controller to crash.
Modified event reporting to prevent excessive messages for license conditions.
Improved replication reliability where replications would queue and not complete.
Fixed an issue where a controller might hang during failover or failback with DSD enabled.
Fixed an issue where a controller might
kill
the other during Power-On Self-Test (POST).
Improved RAID 10 and RAID 50 vdisk recovery during failover or failback.
Fixed a controller hang during drive firmware update (DFU).
Changed the behavior so that adding a global spare to a RAID 6 vdisk that is actively reconstructing
and has I/O occurring no longer removes the drive being reconstructed from the vdisk.
Fixed an issue where multiple drives were lost during DSD spin down or spin up when vdisks are
reconstructing.
Improved controller reliability to prevent remote system hangs.
Increased flexibility of capitalization of iSCSI host IQN.
Resolved a condition where an erroneous negative value was reported for IOPS and Bytes per
second statistics.
Fixed critical error while computing cache statistics.
The following fixes were incorporated in the Storage Management Utility (SMU):
The Drive Spin Down Suspend Period is now displayed.
The SMU will only allow up to 128 volumes to be selected, enforcing the same restrictions as
the CLI, to prevent issues with large numbers of items.
Attempting to enable Drive Spin Down (DSD) and specifying the time to suspend and time to
resume without checking the
Drive Spin Down Suspend Period
box now succeeds without at-
tempting to create a schedule.
Fixed the non-English DSD page.
Improved dataset retrieval to alleviate a responsiveness issue.
Fixed the EMP firmware version displayed after upload.
