DescriptionDefect ID
In the current release, this defect is fixed. As a result, events reported by the

non-privileged user.
The FC (Fibre-Channel) indication provider generate events for the following three types of FC
(Fibre-Channel) adapters or monitors:
QXCR1000991458
• dm_ql_adapter
• dm_fclp_adapter
• dm_TL_adapter
In the previous release, the event IDs of the generated events are not unique across the three monitors.
Due to this, the generated events cannot clearly describe the source of indication.
In the current release, FC (Fibre-Channel) indication provider generate indications from the respective
monitors. When an Event Monitoring System (EMS) event is received, the ProviderName field value
is set as follows depending on the name of the monitor.
For example:
The dm_ql_adapter monitor has the provider name field value as: HPUXFCDIndicationProvider.
The dm_fclp_adapter monitor has the provider name field value as: HPUXFCLPIndicationProvider.
The dm_TL_adapter monitor has the provider name field value as: HPUXTDIndicationProvider.
Based on the provider name and event ID of the generated events, users can identify the source and
type of indication.
