HP-UX SMH: Peripheral Devices Manager –Under OLRAD Cards,

in the Detail View, the Device Files tab displays incorrect details

for some FC cards

ISSUE

In the Peripheral Devices Manager (PeripheralDeviceWeb) application, under OLRAD Cards, in the Detail

View, the Device Files tab does not display correct details for some of the FC cards. This affects the user

interface for Store Driver and Firmware Information menu that is available for FC cards under the I/O

Tree tab. The details of this issue are described here.

The affected fields in the Detail View are:

• N_Port Node World Wide Name

• N_Port Port World Wide Name

• Switch Port World Wide Name

• Switch Node World Wide Name

• N_Port Symbolic Port Name

• N_Port Symbolic Node Name

• Driver state

• Hardware Path

• Maximum Frame Size

• Driver-Firmware Dump Available

• Driver-Firmware Dump Timestamp

• Driver Version

The values for these fields are shifted down by one line, and the value of Driver Version is not available.

As a result, in the Store Driver and Firmware Information page, the Dump Saved State button is always

available even if the driver has no dump data.

NOTE:

This problem is visible only for a few FC cards. The problem does not affect the Dump Saved State

functionality.

SOLUTION

For certain FC cards, you can determine the value for the Driver Version by looking at one row below the

field. Look for a future release of HP-UX Peripheral Devices Manager (PeripheralDeviceWeb version later

than B.11.31.07) on the HP Software Depot website at http://software.hp.com.
