HP XP7 Command View Advanced Edition 8.0.0-01 Release Notes

Virtualizing storage devices by users who can operate permitted ports only
When a volume virtualization task that meets all of the following conditions is created, some of the
task information becomes invalid, and the task generates the KAIC07810-E error.
• XP P9500 is selected as the internal storage system.
• A storage system that is discovered by Device Manager is selected as the external storage system.
• External storage ports that meet all of the following conditions are selected:
The WWNs of the internal storage ports to be used for virtualization of storage devices are
not registered in any host groups.
◦
◦ The WWNs of other internal storage ports are registered in a host group.
◦ The operating user is not permitted to operate the internal storage ports that are registered
in a host group
If the above conditions are met, use one of the following methods to register, in a host group of the
external storage system, the WWNs of the internal storage ports to be used to virtualizestorage devices.
Then, create a new volume virtualization task and execute it.
To use the Device Manager CLI:
1. Create a host group on the external storage port.
2. In the created host group, register the WWNs of the internal storage ports to be used to virtualize
storage devices.
To use the Element Manager:
1. Create a host group on the external storage port.
2. In the created host group, register the WWNs of the internal storage ports to be used to virtualize
storage devices.
3. Refresh the external storage systems by using the Device Manager GUI or CLI.
The Search dialog box, the Create Logical Group dialog box, and the Edit Logical
Group dialog box
When using the Search dialog box, the Create Logical Group dialog box, or the Edit Logical Group
dialog box, sometimes the filter conditions cannot be saved, and the following problems occur:
• The KAIC03016-E message is displayed, and the search conditions in the Search dialog box
cannot be saved.
• The KAIC15156-E message is displayed, and logical groups cannot be created in the Create
Logical Group dialog box.

box cannot be edited.
If an error occurs, shorten the character length of the filter condition.
If you want to save a filter condition that uses two-byte characters in the name, enter the two-byte
characters (no more than 16 characters) in the Edit Storage Systems dialog box or the
ModifyStorageArray command.
