To access or retrieve this record, the getInstance method is supplied with the specific record ID. If the record ID is not available in the provider database, the provider dumps core. This defect is fixed in the current release.
The HPUXStorageNativeProviderModule dumps core on BL870c i2 platform during the system shutdown. However, this problem does not impact the functionality of the provider module. The product has the following limitation: • It is a read-only provider and hence does not allow users to modify, create, or delete instances.
