Version: HP StorageWorks Automated Storage Manager (ASM) version 4.0 Description These release notes cover HP StorageWorks Automated Storage Manager 4.0 as of June 2010.
• • • • Japanese Simplified Chinese Spanish Russian Enhancements Automated Storage Manager (HP ASM) is a storage hosting and management tool that simplifies hosting application and shared folder storage, data protection, managing storage, and monitoring storage. Designed for IT generalists, HP ASM software enables you to create, migrate, manage, and protect shared storage without the need for storage expertise.
Issue: Extending storage space to the maximum allowed size fails and displays an error message. After storage is created in ASM, a size range is displayed that indicates the minimum and maximum size that the storage space can be extended (for example, 15MB - 272GB). When using the Allocate Space function to extend storage to the displayed maximum space allowed, the operation fails and an error message is displayed.
Issue: Backup and/or Restore operations in ASM may fail if there is more than one File Volume (partition) configured on an iSCSI-Based LUN (disk) Workaround: Do not perform backup or restore operations in ASM on storage where more than one File Volume is hosted on a single iSCSI LUN. ASM never provisions more than one volume on iSCSI LUNs, and this situation will not be encountered for storage provisioned by ASM.
Issue: DPX Virtual Tape Libraries show up as User Defined Applications in ASM after running System recovery DPX Virtual Tape Libraries that are not backed up prior to running the System Recovery process appear as User-Defined Applications in the ASM UI after the system recovery process is complete. Workaround: Before running System recovery, back up all DPX files and configuration settings and reapply them after the System recovery process is complete.
Issue: Performing a “Remove from View” on a Virtual Library causes the library to appear as a User-Defined application If a virtual library is deleted from Data Protector Express, and then the Remove from View option is used on the virtual library in ASM, the virtual library is removed from the Data Protection view, but appears in the User Defined view. Workaround: 1. Use Data Protector Express to stop and then delete the Virtual Library Device. a.
