Virtual TapeServer 6.04.03 for NonStop Servers Release Notes

Resolved Issues and Enhancements | 8
 SSH connection for EMS accepted any fingerprint from the remote system.
Previously, when connecting with an SSH connection to an EMS remote host for the first
time, any DSA key fingerprint was accepted. Now, the first connection must be made
manually so that the fingerprint can be verified and accepted if correct. If the fingerprint
changes, the connection will not be made. If the fingerprint has not been accepted, the
EMS connection will fail. (TL-3400)
Migration
 Completion message included cartridges that were not backed up. When
migrating a pool using Legato, the list of cartridges in the completion message may
include cartridges that were not migrated. Now, the message correctly lists only the
cartridges that had data backed up and not cartridges that were not backed up. (TL-3724)
 Non-empty cartridges were not always migrated or exported. The migration
process (hsmput.pl script) used statinfo output when determining if a cartridge contained
data and should have been migrated. However, statinfo changed output to indicate label
and data size, not file size, as it used to do. The metadata that statinfo used to determine
cartridge size was often inaccurate, leading to cartridges that should have been migrated
but were not. Now, with this fix, an empty cartridge is always rescanned and a virtual
tape (including empty cartridges) is migrated if “migrate_all=yes” is set in vts.conf. (TL-
3313, EAR 5518)
Scan/Cleanup
 If cleanup_minimum_size_GB and cleanup_minimum_size_MB were not
configured for Scan/Cleanup, cartridges may have been erroneously erased. If
you specified 0 for either of these parameters, all files could have been erased. This has
been closed because it could not be reproduced in 6.04.03. (TL-3050)
Utilities
 Autovacuum now enabled. This utility is now enabled. See http://www.postgresql.org/
docs/8.3/interactive/routine-vacuuming.html#AUTOVACUUM for details. (TL-3483)
 getVTS_dbginfo now collects DNS, file descriptor, and network socket
information. The /etc/nsswitch.conf file is now retrieved by the getVTS_dbginfo utility.
This file is used in conjunction with /etc/resolv.conf to configure for DNS. In some
troubleshooting situations, it may be necessary to see how hosts are configured to be
resolved. In addition, the utility now collects the output for open file descriptors (lsof -n)
and network sockets (netstat -ap). (TL-3552, TL-3470)
Installation, upgrades, updates, downgrade, and restore
 Must log in three times before upgrading. When you tried to log in to the web
interface to upgrade from 6.04.01, you had to enter the username and password three
times before it logged you in. This has been fixed. (TL-3340)
 Restore failed if restore image contained a copy of the MACHINEID file. If there
were multiple copies of the /boot/MACHINEID file on the system, the restore image was
unusable. This has been fixed. (TL-3188)
