HP 3PAR InForm OS 3.1.1 MU1 Release Notes

DescriptionItemBug ID
In previous releases, the showvv -cpg command only listed the base
volumes belonging to a CPG. This has been modified so that both the
snapshots and the base volumes belonging to a CPG are listed.

In some cases, if a valid time zone was provided using the InForm OS CLI
command settz and a failure occurred during the propagation of the
showdate and stats
commands time stamps

time zone across appropriate directories in the storage system, it was
possible that showdate and stats commands time stamps did not match.
The piece of code handling the time zone propagation did not report errors
back to upper layers (which always assumed the time zone change was
successful). The code has been updated to issue a notification if the time
zone propagation fails.
The SSH interface to the InForm OS CLI client code did not properly
construct a changed root jail for the user signing on. This could allow an

unprivileged SSH CLI user to access files outside the changed root. The
unprivileged user could exploit this flaw by examining world readable
files throughout the node file system. A fix has been implemented that
prevent CLI SSH users from accessing files outside of the chroot jail.
When binding is set to sasl, the base of the search is now set to the root
of the directory tree if a common container is not found in the directory
hierarchy for multiple OUs.

Due to insufficient throttling of iSCSI host I/O, hosts were able to push a
very large number of I/O requests to the storage system that could result

in a controller node going offline because it took too long to process those
requests to send heartbeat messages in a timely manner. This has been
fixed by sending back a SCSI QFULL error condition to a newly received
command on an iSCSI port when the number of pending commands on
the port has reached a predetermined limit.
If the storage system has a large configuration (for example, many virtual
volumes, logical disks, and disks), tunepd could run out of memory in an

SSH session. In this case, it will return the following error message and
exit: There is not enough memory to run this command on the system.
Please use the CLI remote client to run it. If this is the case, run the command
from the remote InForm OS CLI client.
The reset subcommand description has been updated to: “Specifies that
internal counters are saved as the reference point from which deltas are
calculated for the next sampling cycle”.

Using setvv -snp_cpg on virtual volumes relying on shared logical
disks was causing a panic of the system manager. The behavior of setvv

has been corrected. All virtual volumes sharing logical disks must be
specified as arguments; otherwise, the command will fail.
On the Windows platform, the InForm OS CLI client can now be run
immediately after installation without a user log off/on.

To avoid potential node panics during a Remote Copy resync operation,
the startrcopygroup -nosync <grp> command will now return a
failure if the RC group has already started.
