Troubleshooting Common Issues
Read this section completely before installing or running Windows Server 2003 on HP Integrity
servers. This section includes workarounds that may save you valuable time and effort.
Array Configuration Utility (ACU)
Verifer.exe causes ACU inaccuracies
Issue ACU reports incorrect results when the Windows Driver Verifier
(Verifier.exe) is enabled and running in the background.
Servers All Integrity
Workaround There is no workaround at this time. To run the ACU, you must first end the
Verifier.exe process using the Windows Task Manager, then launch ACU.
Do not run both simultaneously.
Array Diagnostic Utility (ADU)
Uninstall feature not functional
Issue The ADU uninstall feature is not working.
Servers All Integrity
Workaround There is no workaround at this time.
Clustering
Cluster nodes unable to see messages
Issue Typically, events reported to the Windows Event Log are visible to all nodes
connected to the cluster. However, because of a Microsoft limitation, when an
event with more than 896 bytes in the data field is reported, only the cluster
node that reported the event can see it. Other nodes in the cluster are unable to
see this event.
Servers All Integrity servers
Workaround There is no workaround at this time.
