• After updating a system from HP-UX 11i Base OE B.11.31.1009 (September 2010) to HP-UX
11i Base OE B.11.31.1103 (March 2011) using update-ux(1M), the
WBEMP-Storage.STORAGE-PROV-RUN fileset is not configured. Trying to configure the fileset
using swconfig (1M) also fails.
The following is seen in the /var/adm/sw/swagent.log file:
* Running "configure" script for fileset "WBEMP-Storage.STORAGE-PROV-RUN".
NOTE: Disabling old Disk Native Provider.
ERROR:

ERROR: The "configure" script for "WBEMP-Storage.STORAGE-PROV-RUN" failed (exit code "1"). The script
location was “/var/adm/sw/products/WBEMP-Storage.2/STORAGE-PROV-RUN/configure”.
Workaround: Uninstall the currently running DASProvider (where the problem is seen) and
install either DAS provider version B.11.31.1106 or B.11.31.1109.05.01.
• When DAS provider B.11.31.1103.15 or later is installed on legacy Integrity systems, disk_em
and msamon_sas are not launched regardless of the diag mode.
HPUXDiskNativeIndicationProvider always natively monitors the hardware and generates
WBEM events. The reverse wrapper, DAS_WbemWrapperMonitor, and/or
MSA_WbemWrapperMonitor may be launched depending on the connected hardware. These
reverse wrappers convert the WBEM event to the corresponding EMS event.
The introduction of this native support adds to support the following EMS resource paths:
/storage/events/DAS_wrapper_wbem
/storage/events/MSA_wrapper_wbem
On the other hand, as the process for disk_em and msamon_sas are not launched, the
corresponding EMS resource paths are not monitored:
/storage/events/disks/default
/storage/events/enclosures/msamon_sas
• Problem: The events are lost when diagnostic products are upgraded on a DRD cloned disk.
Description: Prior to September 2012 release version of diagnostics product, the postgres
7.4.2 version was supported. However version 8.4.8 is shipped from September 2012 release.
