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

Stop Express Query:
ibrix_archiving -S
1.
2. Evacuate the segment.
3. Fail over a server (ibrix_server -f -h <server_name>)
4. Unmount the file system.
Workaround: Restart the server with the issue before unmounting the file system.
• HP-OpenIPMI does not work with the HP-Health service. For example, Proliant health check tools
such as SMH and SIM and hpasmcli commands such as SHOW POWERSUPPLY do not report
errors. This situation occurs because StoreAll software requires standard RHEL IPMI. Remove the
HP-OpenIPMI RPM (execute rpm -e HP-OpenIPMI), and then start the standard RHEL IPMI
(execute /etc/init.d/ipmi start). The standard RHEL IMPI will now start automatically
when the server is booted.
• During server migration or failover, certain cluster events will be reported as alerts. These events
are expected and normal, and are reported temporarily as a server is failing over to another
server.
• Node failover does not occur when a node has a complete loss of power (for example, removing
power cords or pulling a blade from a chassis). Do not test high availability in this manner.
• NFS locks may return an error code (37) after an unlock operation even though the lock was
correctly released. If other results are normal, you can ignore this error code.
• The Data Tiering Wizard in the GUI was designed to function with the file system segments
selection set to either the default value or specific segments and the allocation policy set to the
default value. If you use the CLI to change the segment selection to either ALL or LOCAL, the GUI
(the Data Tiering Wizard) will no longer function correctly. With the segment selection changed
to a non-default value, attempts to change the file system tuning settings while modifying the
primary tier in the wizard will not be accepted. Further, no messages or warnings are displayed
in the GUI.
To restore normal GUI behavior, you must reset the file system segment selection and allocation
policy to the default values in the CLI using the following command:
ibrix_fs_tune -f file_system_name -h host_name,host_name -p -U
HP Insight Remote Support
• After HP Insight Remote Support is configured, do not restart snmpd. See “SNMP” (page 32) for
more information.
• In certain cases, large number of error messages such as the following appear in /var/log/
hp-snmp-agents/cma.log:
“Feb 08 13:05:54 x946s1 cmahostd[25579]: cmahostd: Can't update OS
filesys object: /ifs1 (PEER3023)”
This error message occurs because the file system exceeds <n> TB. (This situation will be corrected
in a future release.) To disable logging, edit the script /opt/hp/hp-snmp-agents/server/
etc/cmahostd and remove the option -l <logname>. Then restart the agents using service
hp-snmp-agents restart.
If you want to keep logging enabled, be aware that the log messages occur frequently, and you
will need to monitor and clean up the log file regularly to avoid filling the file system.
• If Fully Qualified Domain Name (FQDN) resolution is not configured properly for the hosts, the
following error appears when hpsmhd is restarted:
Could not reliably determine the server's fully qualified domain name,
using <ip> for ServerName
To configure FQDN resolution, use either the /etc/hosts file or the Domain Name Service.
