DescriptionDefect ID

#/opt/fcprovider/bin/FC_Provider_test -d

fails to generate events for all subsequent Fibre-Channel adapters available on the system if

the first instance of the adapter is not supported by the

HPUXFCNativeIndicationProviderModule.

This defect is fixed in the current release on BL870c i2 platform. The Fiber-Channel adapter

tests are enhanced to send events for all the monitored paths even if the first instance of the

adapter is not supported by the HPUXFCNativeIndicationProviderModule.

In the previous release on HP-UX 11i v3 OS, enumeration of classes available in Fibre-Channel

Instance provider and Fibre-Channel Consolidated Status provider fails for a user with non-root

privileges.

QXCR1001068706

This defect is fixed in the current release. Enumeration of classes available in Fibre-Channel

Instance provider and Fibre-Channel Consolidated Status provider is successful even for a

normal user.

In the previous release on BL870c i2 platform, when the cimserver /

HPUXFCNativeIndicationProviderModule is restarted, the Indication Identifier index

QXCR1001078598

is reset. If the evweb current database already has events with the same event number or

Indication Identifier index, such duplicate events are not logged in the evweb database. When

events with the same event IDs are reported frequently, the events will be logged in the /var/

opt/sfm/log/event.log file and the syslog file.

In the current release on BL870c i2 platform, when the cimserver /

HPUXFCNativeIndicationProviderModule is restarted, the Indication Identifier is

concatenated with a timestamp along with the event number and Index. With this modification,

the Indication Identifier can never be duplicated and all the event IDs generated by the provider

are unique and gets logged in the evweb database.

In the previous release, when the evweb eventviewer command is run on HP-UX platform,

both HPUXFCIndicationProviderModule and

QXCR1001040332

HPUXFCNativeIndicationProviderModule displays the Fibre-Channel hardware path

in Summary and Description fields of the command output. The adapter hardware path

value must not be displayed in these fields.

In the current release, the HPUXFCIndicationProviderModule and

HPUXFCNativeIndicationProviderModule does not display Fibre-Channel hardware

path in the Summary and Description fields of the evweb eventviewer command

output.
