Table 23 B.11.31.1003.01
DescriptionDefect ID
DAS (Direct Attached Storage) Provider reports information only for disks
attached in the system. When enumerateInstance method is invoked on
QXCR1000952059
HP_DiskDrive class on a system that does not have any disks attached,
the following error message is displayed:
CIM_ERR_NOT_FOUND: Information on direct attached disks could not be
retrieved. The provider will not report or monitor any disks.
This error message is misleading and implies a fault condition where none
exists.
In this release, the error message is made clear and states the following:
CIM_ERR_NOT_FOUND: No direct attached disks could be found on the
system. The provider will not report or monitor any disks.
Defect fixes in B.11.31.0909.02 version
Table 24 B.11.31.0909.02
DescriptionDefect ID
In the previous release, when an application requests thread creation on a
system on which DAS (Direct Attached Storage) Provider is running, the
QXCR1000938587
request is not processed if the provider has created threads beyond the
threshold value set on the system. Due to this, warning messages are logged
in the system log file as DAS (Direct Attached Storage) Provider thread
spawns over a period of time.
This defect has been fixed in this release and warning messages are not
logged in the system log file as DAS (Direct Attached Storage) Provider
thread does not spawn over a period of time.
In the previous release, the status of LUNs in the SMH (System Management
Homepage) page are displayed as degraded even when the status of LUNs
are not degraded.
QXCR1000958375
This defect has been fixed in this release and the LUN status is displayed
appropriately in the SMH (System Management Homepage) page.
Defect fixes in B.11.31.0909.01 version
Table 25 B.11.31.0909.01
DescriptionDefect ID
In the previous release, the getwbemstatus function in the XML page uses
the class HP_DiskDrive to get the consolidated status of the disks, but the
consolidated status is provided by the class HP_DiskCollection.
QXCR1000896835
This defect has been fixed in this release and the XML page is modified to
get the consolidated status from the class HP_DiskCollection.
Appropriate status is displayed on the SMH (System Management Homepage)
page.
In the previous release, a file named diskaldata is created in the root
directory of a system when DAS (Direct Attached Storage) Provider is started.
QXCR1000893566
The file size is negligible and users can ignore the occurrence of the file.
This file can be deleted, but the file may reappear.
