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

The Plan Confirmation window for unvirtualized volumes
When you transition from the Unvirtualize Volumes dialog box to the Plan Confirmation window, the
target parity group might not be displayed if there are already volumes that were unvirtualized .
This issue does not occur if the storage system was refreshed to display the latest updated information.
Discovering volumes for virtualization
If there are many external volumes that are candidates for virtualization, volume discovery might take
a long time.
The following formula is a rough approximation of the required time for volume discovery.
Required time (in sec.) = [(number of external volumes) x (number of selected external paths) x 0.02]
+ 10
Changing the status of copy pair
Do not specify the copytracksize parameter when the CLI command ModifyReplication is
executed, and the status of XP Snapshot or Fast Snap is changed.
When the copy pair operation generates the 7757 error code
If a copy pair operation is performed from the CLI, the operation might generate the following error
codes:
KAIC90083-E (error code: 7757) An error was detected in the host agent.
Details: "An attempt to start an instance temporarily used by Device
Manager agent has failed."
This issue might be caused by either of the following:
• The instance number or the service number that the Device Manager agent will temporarily use
is already being used.
• The command device recognized by the pair management server is unavailable.
Take the following actions to correct the problem:
• Check the instance number and service number that are being used for the RAID Manager or for
the P9000 RAID Manager. For a host that is run by the Device Manager agent, use a number in
the range specified in the following properties of the server.properties file:*
◦ Instance number: server.agent.rm.temporaryInstance
◦ Service number: server.agent.rm.temporaryPort
* The property file of the Device Manager agent
If the operating system that runs the Device Manager agent is Windows Server 2008 or a later
version, the operating system might be using the service number. If so, change the service number.
• Check that the command device recognized by the pair management server is available.
Registering Solaris hosts in Device Manager agent
If the operating system of a host managed by the Device Manager agent is Solaris, make sure that
the number of LUs that the host recognizes does not exceed 256 per port. Also, make sure that the
LUNs are in the range from 0 to 255.
Using Internet Explorer 11.0
When you click a button or shortcut on the screen to open a new tab or new window, an extra blank
window or transitional window might be displayed at the same time. In such a case, close the
unnecessary window.
