Virtual TapeServer 6.04.03.02 for NonStop Servers Release Notes

Known Issues | 28
RSH must be disabled if not running Instant DR, to pass security vulnerability
reports. RSH is enabled by default. (TL-3927)
WORKAROUND: To disable RSH, log in to the server as root, edit /etc/xinetd.d/rsh to
change the line that reads “disable = no” to “disable = yes”. Then, run the “service xinetd
reload” command.
hp-ilo module cannot rebuild itself after an upgrade then downgrade. When
performing an upgrade from 6.04.02, kernel headers are not backed up. Upgrading to
6.04.03 upgrades the kernel headers, which removes the old kernel headers. If you
downgrade to 6.04.02, there are no kernel headers for the 6.04.02 kernel. Therefore, there
is now way to install the hp-ilo module, which is part of the HP monitoring tools. The hp-
ilo module rebuilds itself when it is installed, and with the missing kernel headers after
the downgrade, the module cannot be built. (TL-4008)
EMS service should be started before drives are initialized. EMS log reports that
the drive requested for the mount had an invalid BLTI because the drive had not been
started. This caused tapes to be mounted but no lock was in place, and the system
reported that a tape was locked when it was not. (TL-3456)
Running getVTS_dbginfo as root displays errors. Errors similar to the following are
displayed if you run the utility as root. (TL-3877)
/etc/profile.d/idle-logout.sh: line 3: TMOUT: readonly variable
cp: cannot copy a directory, `/usr/local/tape/log', into itself,
`log/log'
cp: will not overwrite just-created `cfg/network' with `/etc/
sysconfig/networking/profiles/default/network'
cp: cannot stat `/usr/local/tape/patch': No such file or directory
ls: /vault: No such file or directory
Must reboot after disabling auditd logging. After you disable auditd logging, the
auditd service stops but due to a kernel defect, the output is directed to the console and /
var/log/messages. (TL-2465, EAR 4787)
WORKAROUND: Reboot after disabling auditd logging (chkconfig auditd off).
Message logged to console and /var/log/messages until iLO is configured. Until
HP-iLO is configured, the following message may continue to print:
INIT: Id "s1" respawning too fast: disabled for 5 minutes
The message is also logged to /var/log/messages with no other information. (TL-2279)
System restore
No indication of system restore failure in log files. If a system restore fails, the
systemrestore.log and other logs do not log information about the failure. The only
indicator is displayed on the web interface, which says “An unexpected error has occurred,
please contact support.” (TL-4313)
“URL not found” message displayed when creating a system restore image with
insufficient disk space. If there is not enough space to create a system restore image,
the user should be notified that there is not enough space rather than a “URL not found”
message. (TL-4176)
