Job template and commands are limited On an HP Tru64 UNIX host, the MountExistingStorageVolumes job template and the createHostVolumeDiscrete command support UNIX File System (UFS) volumes only. Mount jobs fail Running the MountEntireVolumeGroup or MountHostVolume job fails with an error such as the following: /dev/disk/dsk786c is an invalid device or cannot be opened Resolution: Log in to the host and unmount all filesets on the domain for which the error occurred, and then rerun the job.
IBM AIX host agent IBM AIX properties do not display cluster membership When right-clicking Enabled Hosts→View Properties, the cluster membership for the IBM AIX host does not appear. This feature is not supported at this time. IBM AIX mount support HP does not support mounting a replicated host volume to the same IBM AIX host.

Windows host agent GPT disk shrink issue Shrinking GUID partition table (GPT) disks on a Windows host to the same-size partition disables subsequent expand and shrink operations. Resolution: Ensure that the GPT disk size is 100 MB greater than the partition before performing a shrink operation.

If IPv4 is disabled, then the host agent binds to IPv6. Resolution: To change the default behavior, remove the # character to uncomment the line containing the SERVER_NAME_IP parameter, and then modify the SERVER_NAME_IP value in the hprsmha.
RSM job fails when running backup software This may occur in environments where backup software is being used to back up the entire server, including the RSM install directory\RSM\database folder. The backup software may prevent writes to this folder, which will cause the database service and any currently executing RSM jobs to fail. To avoid this situation, remove the RSM install directory\RSM\database folder and its sub-folders from the backup set.
