6.3.3 HP StoreAll OS Release Notes (AW549-96082, January 2014)

3. Increase the file descriptor limit for Fusion Manager from 2048 to a larger number based
on your environment.
4. Save the file.
5. Repeat Steps 1 through 4 for each Fusion Manager server.
6. Disable High Availability from the High Availability Configuration Wizard for all Fusion
Manager servers or use the following CLI command:ibrix_fm -m nofmfailover -A.
7. Restart Fusion Manager for your changes to take effect for all Fusion Manager servers.
8. Enable High Availability from the High Availability Configuration Wizard for all Fusion
Manager servers or use the following CLI command:ibrix_fm -m passive -A
When High Availability is enabled, StoreAll picks an active Fusion Manager. For information
on how to change the server that was picked as the active Fusion Manager, see the
Administrator Guide for your platform.
• If Fusion Manager (FM) is taking a long time to start and the logging for FM is showing APPARENT
DEADLOCK messages, purge the event database.
To purge the event database:
1. Enter the following CLI command:
ibrix_event -p [-o DAYS_COUNT]
If you want to change the number of days the event database is purged, include the -o
DAYS_COUNT option when you enter the command.
Events are removed starting with the oldest events. The default is to remove the oldest seven
days of messages. Purge the event database periodically to prevent it from becoming too
large.
2. After the events are purged, back up the Fusion Manager configuration by entering the
following command:
ibrix_fm -B
3. Wait for a few seconds to let the Store archive propagate through the cluster and then restart
the active FM.
• The credentials management service (hpsp_credmgmt) will not allow adding a credential for a
new MSA storage array after the credential database is created. The workaround is to install the
credentials manually.
To install the credentials manually:
1. Enter the hpsp_couplet_info -i command to get a list of UUID for attached MSA
enclosures. Each enclosure is on a separate line, as shown in the following example of the
command and its output:
[root@ib25-02s1 security]# hpsp_couplet_info -i
500c0ff1390c0000
2. Install the credentials for a single MSA by running the following four commands once for
each MSA that the hpsp_couplet_info command lists in step 1. Replace
<MSA_SAS_BASE_ADDRESS> with one of the UUIDs as provided by the output of the
hpsp_couplet_info command.
hpsp_credmgmt --update-cred -s
couplet:couplet/array/<MSA_SAS_BASE_ADDRESS>/mgmtport_a/rw
--cred-type upwpair --cred-username manage --cred-password '!manage'
hpsp_credmgmt --update-cred -s
couplet:couplet/array/<MSA_SAS_BASE_ADDRESS>/mgmtport_a/ro
--cred-type upwpair --cred-username monitor --cred-password
'!monitor'
