HP Storage System Scripting Utility 10.0
This section describes HP SSSU 10.0 enhancements, fixes, limitations, and other information.
Enhancements
• HP SSSU now returns exit codes to the operating system.
• A wait_until command is now available which will wait until the object reaches the specified
state
• HP SSSU now uses asynchronous commands to avoid locking resources until a command completes.
• HP SSSU times out and generates an error response if HP P6000 Command View does not respond
within a specified interval of time.
Limitations and workarounds
• If you use the CODELOAD DISK command to upgrade firmware on multiple disk drives, no error
is displayed for disks configured with Vraid0.
Syntax error when capturing configuration of array in DR relationship
When using HP SSSU to capture the configuration of an array that is in a DR relationship, the resulting
configuration file contains a syntax error that renders the file unusable when restoring the configuration.
The capture configuration incorrectly captures two properties at a time for the SET DR_GROUP
command:
SET DR_GROUP "\Data Replication\DR Group 001" LINK_DOWN_AUTOSUSPEND=DISABLE
SET DR_GROUP "\Data Replication\DR Group 001" LINK_DOWN_AUTOSUSPEND=DISABLE
FULLCOPY_AUTOSUSPEND=ENABLE
Attempting a restore using a file with this syntax error will fail because HP SSSU attempts to set two
properties at a time.
After capturing the configuration, edit the SET DR_GROUP command in the configuration file as
follows:
SET DR_GROUP "\Data Replication\DR Group 001" LINK_DOWN_AUTOSUSPEND=DISABLE
SET DR_GROUP "\Data Replication\DR Group 001" FULLCOPY_AUTOSUSPEND=ENABLE
Editing the file before it is needed enables you to restore the configuration successfully, if necessary.
Running HP SSSU in OpenVMS
There are two options for running HP SSSU in OpenVMS:
• Change to the directory where HP SSSU is installed and run the application from there.
• To run HP SSSU from any directory, set an environment variable to the HP SSSU executable file
name and path. For example: Env_Var_Name :== [Path] file_name_of_executable
HP SSSU memory utilization issue on VMware ESX 3.5
In VMware ESX 3.5, if HP SSSU closes due to a memory utilization issue, increase the console memory
to more than 400 MB.
HP SSSU does not create an FCoE host with HP-UX
The HP P6000 Command View GUI enables you to create an FCoE host with operating system type
as HPUX. However, HP SSSU does not support this operation.
HP SSSU may hang when using long commands on Solaris
When using long commands on Solaris, the HP SSSU process may hang. This is a result of how Solaris
handles long commands.
