HP-UX WBEM SAS Provider release notes (5900-2224, March 2012 web release)

Following is the limitation of the SAS provider:
• SAS is a read-only provider and hence does not allow users to modify, create, or delete
instances.
• When SAS provider B.11.31.1106 or later is installed on legacy Integrity systems,
dm_sas_adapter is never launched regardless of the diag mode.
HPUXSASNativeIndicationProviderModule always monitors natively the hardware and generates
WBEM events. The reverse wrapper, sas_Wbemwrapper, may be launched depending on
the connected hardware. This reverse wrapper converts the WBEM event to the corresponding
EMS event.
The introduction of this native support adds to support the following EMS resource path:
/adapters/events/sas_wrapper_wbem
On the other hand, as the process for dm_sas_adapter is never launched, the corresponding
EMS resource path is not monitored:
/adapters/events/sas_adapter
