Version 7.3.1-00 Description This is the initial release of HP XP P9000 Replication Manager Software Edition 7.3.1. For details, see “Enhancements” (page 4). For previous behaviors resolved in this release, see “Fixes” (page 4). Update recommendation Routine Superseded version 7.2.
Enhancements Enhancements for 7.3.1-00 • The maximum number of copy groups that can be registered in My Copy Groups is increased from 100 to 300. Enhancements for 7.3.0-00 • Configuration information managed by local instances of Device Manager1 is now automatically applied to Replication Manager. It is no longer necessary to refresh the configuration for local instances of Device Manager. 1 Indicates the Device Manager instance on the Replication Manager management server.
NOTE: Even though the task remained in the running state, the processing for the operation performed on the storage system finished normally. • All volumes appear in the hosts view or storage view after interrupting processing while running Refresh Storage Systems or Refresh Configuration. A processing interruption indicates that the service stopped, the power turned off, or some other issue occurred. Fixes for 7.3.
2 A primary volume that was one of the following sizes: ◦ From 1000 to 1023 MB ◦ More than 1000 TB Note that this problem does not occur when the volume size is from 1000 to 1023 MB. • If a product other than Replication Manager was used to modify the configuration of a storage system managed by an instance of Device Manager registered as an information source, when Refresh Configuration was executed, the information of the modified configuration was not displayed in the resource view.
If you use Pair Configuration Wizard only once to generate and execute the replacement tasks for all of the secondary volumes in the Continuous Access Synchronous or XP P9000/XP Continuous Access Journal copy pair, task execution might not succeed. Site filter conditions in Pair Configuration Wizard Site and Storage System drop-down lists are empty and you cannot select candidate volumes if all of the following conditions are met. Conditions 1. 2.
2 This behavior does not occur among copy pair-setting tasks because the copy pair is reserved in one of the tasks. Operations for copy groups containing Simplex copy pairs Task execution might generate an error when you use Pair Configuration Wizard to edit copy pair settings or use Change Pair Status Wizard to perform copy pair operations on copy groups that contains both Simplex copy pairs and non-Simplex copy pairs.
1. 2. 3. 4. The copy group to be operated on contains both Simplex copy pairs and non-Simplex copy pairs. The local Device Manager is being used to manage the storage system that contains the copy group described in the first condition. The copy type of the copy group described in the first condition is Continuous Access Journal.
Also, before using Pair Configuration Wizard, add the user to both of the following resource groups for all the copy groups included in the copy topology that is the target of the operation. • Resource groups set up for all the storage systems configured with the copy groups that are the target of the operation. • Resource groups set up for all the pair management servers managing the copy groups that are the target of the operation.
