HP XP7 Command View Advanced Edition Release Notes (TK981-96008, May 2014)

Incorrect values for the Internal Storage Parity Groups column on the External Volumes
tab
If one of the following conditions is met, incorrect values for the Internal Storage Parity Groups column
might be displayed on the External Volumes tab in the External Storage Systems window:
• One external volume is mapped to an external parity group of multiple internal storage systems.
• On the internal storage system side, there are multiple parity groups made from identical external
paths (a combination of a port for the internal storage system, a port for the external storage
system, and a LUN for an external volume), and all of the parity groups are in a blocked status,
except one.
Naming the Fast Snap snapshot group
When you create a snapshot group for Fast Snap, you can use the following characters in the snapshot
group name:
• 0-9
• a-z
• A-Z
• - (hyphen)
• . (period)
• , (comma)
• : (colon)
• @
• _ (underline)
If a snapshot group name contains a character that is not specified in the list above, neither the pair
modify operation nor the pair delete operation can be performed for that snapshot group.
The external path group for virtualizing a volume
In the Virtualize Volumes dialog box or when using the CLI AddExternalArrayGroup command,
if you attempt to virtualize a volume without using an existing external path group, the virtualization
might take a long time.
In the Virtualize Volumes dialog box, the KAIC05601-E error message is generated when all of the
following conditions are met:
• P9500 is specified for the internal storage system.
• An external path is used, and that path was detected by executing Port Scan.
• You attempt to virtualize multiple external volumes (more than about 500).
For the AddExternalArrayGroup command in the Device Manager CLI, the KAIC90083-E
(error code = 5601) is generated when all of the following conditions are met:
• P9500 is specified as the internal storage system.
• The pathgroupid parameter is omitted, or a path group ID that does not exist is specified.
• You attempt to virtualize multiple external volumes (more than about 500) at one time by using
the batch functionality.
In this case, virtualize volumes by using an existing external path group, or reduce the number of
volumes to be virtualized at one time.
