HP P6000 Enterprise Virtual Array release notes (XCS 10001000) (5697-1819, March 2012)
• Fixed an issue where a controller can experience a watchdog timeout termination during host
port LUN processing.
• Fixed an issue where 0x4207001b and 0x420d001b events were not being logged on EVA6400
and EVA8400 controllers.
• Added event logging to increase visibility to host port Fibre Channel nameserver logins during
DR tunnel creation.
• Fixed a Direct Memory Access (DMA) error that occurred when an active controller was physically
removed from an enclosure.
• Improved the robustness and event logging associated with array initialization requests including
new events when initialization requests arrive, complete, or are malformed.
• Fixed an issue where the array failed to boot when a disk containing quorum data from a different
array was inserted into the array.
• Fixed an issue where a controller resynchronization would occur during a change of mastership.
• Fixed a rare controller resynchronization that occurred when a controller mirror port disruption
occurred during a controller failover.
• An issue was addressed that can arise when metadata instances from multiple storage systems
are discovered.
• Fixed an issue on the EVA4400 that caused the SCID_FCS_LOOP_CONFIG (0x06410017)
event to not be generated when changes occurred during discovery of device enclosures and
disk drives.
• Improved on-demand allocation, rebuild, reconstruct, revert, and controller failover routines to
resolve a problem where the controllers can experience a Unit Stalled Too Long condition
and workload timeouts.
• Fixed an issue where the controller erroneously logs Metadata Check 1 (0x07140715)
events spontaneously.
HP P6000 Business Copy
This section describes issues affecting HP P6000 Business Copy implementations of local replication,
including snapshots, snapclones, and mirrorclones.
• Fixed incorrect event date reporting in the snapclone event data.
• Fixed an issue where controller software may not realize unpresented snapshots, snapclones, or
mirrorclones when source virtual disks are in DR groups, leading to a controller termination.
• Fixed a work load hang that occurred when creating a large number of snapclones under heavy
load.
HP P6000 Continuous Access
This section describes issues affecting HP P6000 Continuous Access implementations of remote
replication, including data replication (DR) groups.
• Fixed issues where a controller could terminate (termination codes 0x020c0100, 0x42350104)
for an invalid group cache operation state because the determination of DR group membership
was based on a snapshot rather than the successor of the snapshot.
• Fixed an issue in HP P6000 Continuous Access configurations where the controller software
intermittently fails to correctly identify the active protocol type for EVA3000/5000 peers.
• Fixed an issue where controllers can experience a processor exception (0x0402011f) due to
non-zero link fields during HP P6000 Continuous Access site failover.
