If a snapshot group name contains a character that is not specified in the list above, neither the pair
modify operation nor the pair delete operation can be performed for that snapshot group.
The external path group for virtualizing a volume
In the Virtualize Volumes dialog box or when using the CLI AddExternalArrayGroup command,
if you attempt to virtualize a volume without using an existing external path group, the virtualization
might take a long time..
In the Virtualize Volumes dialog box, the KAIC05601-E error message is generated when all of the
following conditions are met:
• P9500 is specified for the internal storage system.
• An external path is used, and that path was detected by executing Port Scan.
• You attempt to virtualize multiple external volumes (more than about 500).
For the AddExternalArrayGroup command in the Device Manager CLI, the KAIC90083-E
(error code = 5601) is generated when all of the following conditions are met:
• P9500 is specified as the internal storage system.
• The pathgroupid parameter is omitted, or a path group ID that does not exist is specified.
• You attempt to virtualize multiple external volumes (more than about 500) at one time by using
the batch functionality.
In this case, virtualize volumes by using an existing external path group, or reduce the number of
volumes to be virtualized at one time.
Shredding in the Device Manager GUI
It takes at least five minutes to shred each volume.
Copy pair operation times out waiting for specified status
If a copy pair operation is performed from the CLI, the operation might time out and the following
error codes might be displayed:
• KAIC90083-E (error code: 7783)
• KAIC90083-E (error code: 7756) An error occurred during the processing
of the service by the host agent. The host agent error message is Processing
will now stop because the status of the Fast Snap pair was changed and
is now invalid. The command error message is raidcom: [EX_EWSTOT] Timeout
waiting for specified status.
The copy pair operation will continue to run in the storage system even if the operation ends in an
error. To check the status of the copy pair operation, refresh the storage system, and then execute one
of the following commands to check the pair status:
• GetStorageArray (subtarget=ReplicationInfo)
• GetStorageArray (subtarget=SnapshotGroup
snapshotgrpsubinfo=ReplicationInfo)*
* This command can only be used for Fast Snap copy pairs.
