10 Release Notes – Data Replication Manager HSG80 ACS Version 8.6-4P
Resetting FcAL fanFrameDisable Value to Zero
If you perform a CONFIGURE command and change the setting of any of the Fabric
Parameters, the value of the FcAL fanFrameDisable parameter also becomes
changed from 0 to 1. You must go into the Arbitrated Loop Parameters and change the
setting of Send FANframes to 1. This will reset the FcAL fanFrameDisable
parameter back to 0. When you have made this change, perform a
CONFIGSHOW
command to verify that FcAL fanFrameDisable parameter is at 0.
Failure to reset Send FANframes to 1 may impact the proper functioning of a
fabric failover if you have an HBA with an arbitrated loop setting.
Invalid VTDPY Percentages
During the transition time between site failover and site failback, the log, merge, and
copy percentages on the original initiator displayed by VTDPY are not valid.
Disregard these percentages.
Using Switch Zoning to Prevent Crashes When the
96-Connection Limit is Exceeded
The HSG80 controller may crash if more than 96 connections exist on the fabric.
Compaq suggests that you use switch zoning to limit the number of connections
visible to the controller. For more information about switch zoning, refer to the
SANworks by Compaq Data Replication Manager HSG80 ACS Version 8.6-4P
Configuration Guide.
I/O Pause During Fabric Reconfiguration
During a fabric reconfiguration, you will notice a brief pause in I/O functions on all
servers connected to the fabric. This brief cessation of read/write operations is normal.
Fabric reconfiguration can be caused by switches starting up or shutting down, and by
the physical plugging or unplugging of fiber cables.
