Release Notes for PA Systems September 2008 Release

ODE.
Known Problems for 32-bit Tools
Following are the known problems for 32-bit tools:
Offline diagnostics may not recognize some SCSI disks attached through HP-GSC and HP-HSC cards. For
example, MAPPER may fail to recognize a lone AutoRAID Disk Array Model 12H. This problem will be fixed
in a subsequent version of the offline diagnostics.
Following lists the systems and the cards that are affected:
D/R-Class: A4107A (HP-HSC card F/W/Diff SCSI-2)
K-Class: A2969A (HP-HSC card F/W/Diff SCSI-2)
T-Class: A3644A (HP-HSC card F/W/Diff SCSI-2)
A-Class: HP-HSC card F/W/Diff SCSI-2
Workaround:
Run the search command from the Boot Console Handler (BCH) prompt.
Run the MAPPER tool or other ODE disk tools as desired.
Workaround for A180 and A180C servers:
Boot to the HP-UX prompt.
Reboot to ISL.
Run the MAPPER tool or other ODE disk tools as desired.
ASTRODIAG
At least one PCI SCSI card must be placed under each Local Bus Adapter (LBA) on sx1000 systems.
For B2000, at least one PCI SCSI card must be installed in the system to run all sections on ASTRODIAG.
CLKUTIL
This version of CLKUTIL will not work on a graphics terminal.
DINOTEST
If section 9 runs, cards on the secondary PCI bus may loose their configuration. When this happens, users must
reset the system before booting the OS.
KEYDIAG

LANCONFIG
Does not support C-class workstations on this version.
