6.1.2 HP IBRIX X9000 Release Notes (AW549-96048, October 2012)

This error message occurs because the file system exceeds <n> TB. (This situation will be corrected
in a future release.) To disable logging, edit the script /opt/hp/hp-snmp-agents/server/
etc/cmahostd and remove the option -l <logname>. Then restart the agents using service
hp-snmp-agents restart.
If you want to keep logging enabled, be aware that the log messages occur frequently, and you
will need to monitor and clean up the log file regularly to avoid filling the file system.
• If Fully Qualified Domain Name (FQDN) resolution is not configured properly for the hosts, the
following error appears when hpsmhd is restarted:
Could not reliably determine the server's fully qualified domain name,
using <ip> for ServerName
To configure FQDN resolution, use either the /etc/hosts file or the Domain Name Service.
• If SNMP is logging excessively, add the following command to the file /etc/sysconfig/
snmpd.options to stop the logging:
OPTIONS="-LS 0-4 d -Lf /dev/null -p /var/run/snmpd.pid -a"
To enable the default SNMP logging, add a pound sign (#) to the following command in the file
/etc/sysconfig/snmpd.options and save the file:
# OPTIONS="-LS 0-4 d -Lf /dev/null -p /var/run/snmpd.pid -a"
Then restart the snmp service:
service snmpd restart
• On X9320/X9720 systems, the virtual SAS manager and VC connect manager must be configured
manually for HP Support.
• On HP SIM 7.1, X9320/X9300 nodes are discovered as “HP X9320 NetStor FSN” if MSA
storage is registered on the cluster nodes. This does not affect sending alerts to HP Support.
Upgrades
• System User login credentials are backed up and restored during upgrades. However, any user
data is not retained. Users must save and restore their individual data manually during an upgrade.
• If clients previously mapped a CIFS share using the hostname/FQDN, they will be prompted
continuously to enter their credentials when attempting to access the CIFS share after the upgrade.
(The share can be accessed successfully using the IP address.) To workaround this situation, disjoin
and then rejoin all file serving nodes to the Active Directory domain. This can be done using the
GUI or the ibrix_auth command.
X9000 Windows clients
• Reading of snaps as memory mapped files is not supported. Undesired results can occur if a snap
file is used as memory mapped file while the current version of the file is being modified by a
different instance.
General
• The ibrix_pv -a -o mpath command does not recognize a multipath device. The command
works properly when an argument is added to ignore the standard scsi devices. Execute the
command as follows, specifying the path to your device.
ibrix_pv -a -o accept:/dev/mapper/mpath10,~standard
• HP-OpenIPMI does not work with the HP-Health service. For example, Proliant health check tools
such as SMH and SIM and hpasmcli commands such as SHOW POWERSUPPLY do not report
errors. This situation occurs because X9000 Software requires standard RHEL IPMI. Remove the
HP-OpenIPMI RPM (execute rpm -e HP-OpenIPMI), and then start the standard RHEL IPMI
