HP XP P9000 Command View Advanced Edition Suite Software 7.5.0-05 Release Notes (TB581-96374, November 2013)

Large-scale storage system operations
When the GUI or CLI is used to add, refresh, edit, or remove storage systems, consider the following
conditions:
• Make sure that the total number of LDEVs of the storage systems where the operations are in
progress at the same time does not exceed 128,000.
• If operations are consecutively executed, wait for one or more minutes after the execution of the
previous operation has been finished, and then execute the next operation.
When Replication Manager is used and copy group information is viewed
From the Pair Configurations view in Replication Manager, the value for the number of viewable copy
pairs appearing in the Visible/Total column in the Copy Group Summary is sometimes different from
the actual number of copy pairs appearing in the Pairs tab.
The total number of copy pairs appearing in the Pairs tab is the actual number of viewable copy pairs.
This behavior occurs when all of the following conditions are met:
• No Replication Manager license is registered, and Replication Manager is started from Device
Manager.
• From the Pair Configurations view (accessible via Explorer→Resources→Pair Configurations), the
Copy Pair Summary is viewed (accessible by selecting Pair Configurations→Pair Management
Servers→Config Files→Copy Groups).
• Copy pairs that cannot be viewed are in the copy group selected in the previous condition.
Allocate Smart Tiers Software volumes
To allocate Smart Tiers Software volumes that have been allocated to hosts, perform either of the
following operations:
• Allocate volumes from the search result window
• Allocate volumes from the logical group window
KAIC15001-E error message in the GUI
If the GUI displays the KAIC15001-E error message, startup of Device Manager might not have
completed successfully. The following might be the cause:
• Ports required to start Device Manager are used by other processes.
Verify the ports described in the Port settings of the HP XP P9000 Command View Advanced Edition
Suite Software Administrator Guide are not being used by other processes.
Using Device Manager to manage a virtual machine
When Device Manager manages a virtual machine, the characters of the machine name in the following
appear as encoded characters:
• In the GUI:
The value of VMname displayed in a virtual machine name subwindow
• In the CLI:
The name attribute values for VM instances that are collected by executing the GetHost command.
