HP XP7 Command View Advanced Edition 8.0.0-01 Release Notes
Mapping of Available External Volumes
In the GUI, the Available External Volumes created with one of the following volumes cannot be
mapped to Internal Volumes.
• Volumes created when the volume virtualization task in the GUI did not succeed by interception.
• Volumes in the external storage system allocated to the internal storage system by the CLI AddLun
command.
• Volumes in the external storage system allocated to the internal storage system by Element Manager,
XP P9000 Remote Web Console, or XP Remote Web Console.
To map the above volumes, use either of the following:
• The CLI AddExternalArrayGroup command
• Element Manager, XP P9000 Remote Web Console, or XP Remote Web Console
Clicking a link in the GUI
When clicking a link in the GUI, do not click the link while pressing the Ctrl key.
KAIC16009-E error dialog boxes may appear if you click a link while pressing the Ctrl key.
If this occurs, close all of the error dialog boxes.
Using a Device Manager agent on an AIX host
To use a Device Manager agent on an AIX host, the ODMDIR environment variable must be set in
advance.
Adjusting the computer's time
If a computer's time is changed while the services of Common Component and CVAE products are
running, Device Manager might not operate correctly. If you need to change the time, do so before
installing.
If you want to automatically adjust the time by using a protocol such as NTP, use a function that can
gradually adjust the computer time without immediately synchronizing the time when the computer
time is ahead of the actual time. There are some functions that gradually adjust the time if the difference
between the computer time and the actual time is within a certain fixed range, but immediately
synchronize the time if the time difference exceeds that range. Set the frequency of the time adjustments
for the function that you are using so that the time difference does not exceed the fixed range.
For example, the Windows Time service can gradually adjust the computer time without synchronizing
it to the actual time as long as the difference between the computer time and the actual time does not
exceed a fixed range. Therefore, check the range in which the Windows Time service can gradually
adjust the time, then set the frequency of the time adjustments for the Windows Time service so that
the difference between the computer time and the actual time does not exceed that range.
If you cannot use functionality that adjusts the time automatically, or if you need to change the time
immediately, perform the following procedure to change the time manually:
1. Stop the services of Common Component and all CVAE products.
2. To set the clock back, wait until the actual clock time catches up to the computer clock time, then
restart the computer.
When using the Device Manager server in a time zone within the United States or Canada, set the
operating system of the computer on which the Device Manager server will be installed so that the
operating system is compatible with the new Daylight Saving Time (DST) rules. If the operating system
is not compatible with the new DST rules, the Device Manager server will not be compatible with the
new rules either.
