Description
Virtual host can cause route change
When a vir tual host is instantiated it uses the network mask of the interface upon
which it is activated. This can cause a unexpected route change i f the virtual
host address was intended for some other interface on another network or if the
virtual host address is mistyped.
For example, the following command adds the 10.10.1.100 address on the 10.11.1.1
interface.
m x v h o s t a d d 10 .10 .1.10 0 10 .11.1.1
If the 1 0.11.1.1 interface had a netmask of 255.255.0.0, then the trafficfor the
10.10/16 subnet would be directly routed to the 10.11/16 network for this ser ver
rather than being routed to a ga teway on the 10.11/16 n et work.
URL in HTTP service monitor can cause virtual host to fail
The URL assigned to an HT TP service monitor should not reference the virtual host
with which the
HTTP service monitor is associated. If the virtual host is down, the
HTTP service
monitor will not be able to make a connection to the virtual host
address and
will also be down. A down service monitor on a virtual host then
tends to kee
p
the virtual host from ever being instantiated.
psfscheck incorrectly reports attribute errors
When psfscheck is runona filesystem created on HP Clustered File System 2.5
or
earlier, it may report an error such as the following:
Pass 3: Checking semantic tree directory 0 8334 has broken
attribute 0x0
You can safely ignore this message. The attribute bit was not set in HP Clustered
File System 2.5 and earlier releases. (If psfscheck is run in a mode other than
read-only, it will fixthe error.)
Issues when installing from a CIFS share
HP Clustered File System can be installed from a CIFS share; however, you should
be
aware of the following issues:
• HP Clustered File System can be installed via Terminal Services from a CIFS
share only on Windows 2003. If you are installing on Windows 2000 via
Terminal Services,you will need to installeitherfromCD orfromalocalcopy
of
the software .
• When the m xcheck utility is executed from a CIFS share, the HBA test will
fail. Although a detailed error message is not reported, a line such as the
following will be printed:
Failure: Check for supported HBAs, drivers, and
settings (hba_test)
The HBA test pa sses when mxcheck is executed from CD or from a copy
on a
local disk.
