Virtual TapeServer 6.04.04 for NonStop Servers Release Notes

Known Issues | 26
 Firefox improperly renders Cartridge Maintenance page when Multiple Select
checkbox is unchecked. If you use Firefox to view the interface and you deselect the
Multiple Select option on the Cartridge Maintenance page, the browser renders the page
incorrectly, displaying items in the wrong place and not preserving information. (TL-346)
WORKAROUND: Click the Clear Form button to correct the display problem.
 If too much data is transferred in a refresh period, the transfer rate and
compression ratio displayed on the System Status page may be inaccurate. If
more than 2GB of data is written during a refresh period of the System Status page, the
transfer rate and compression ratio may be invalid. (TL-880)
 The selected menu item does not correspond to the displayed page when the
browser Back or Forward buttons are used to navigate the web interface. If you
use the Back or Forward button provided by the browser to navigate to pages on the web
interface, the previously viewed menu item is displayed on the main page but the
highlighted menu item does not go back or forward to the corresponding menu item.
(TL-570)
 Cannot cancel a manual mount request using the Cancel button. If you press the
Mount button to mount a cartridge then press the Cancel button instead of the OK button,
the cartridge is mounted on the VTD. The operation is not cancelled. (TL-543)
Manage Connections
 Last Mounted time incorrect for new cartridges on Manage Connections page.
The Last Mounted time is the same as the creation time for new cartridges that have
never been mounted. (TL-4859)
 Manage Connections page does not select available values when creating VTDs.
If you attempt to create a VTD after other VTDs have been created, the Manage
Connections page does not automatically select available values for the LUN and target.
If you do not change the values, the creation will fail. (TL-3491)
WORKAROUND: Modify the LUNs to unused LUNs, modify the target, and then save.
Then, change the LUNs back to the original LUNs.
Access Control
 Certain Access Control settings cause each update cycle to prompt for a
password. If Access Control for operations is set to one of the following, the web interface
prompts for a password three times every time a page refreshes: 'BASIC access', 'Vault
Access', 'Access to All Vaults', 'View System Status', 'Change Refresh Rate', 'Stop and
Start Tapeserver'. The dialog can be cancelled (and works correctly), but it will prompt
again on the next update cycle. (TL-1920)
WORKAROUND: Lengthen the browser’s refresh cycle to minimize the impact of this
issue.
 User and group changes can be applied but not saved as part of the Custom
Defaults. On the Access Control page, you can save user and group settings by clicking
the Save as CUSTOM button but subsequent changes to the custom defaults cannot be
saved. (TL-377)
 Must click Restore CUSTOM Defaults button twice to display the “Users and
Groups” and “Rights” sections of the page. When you click the Restore CUSTOM
Defaults button, the “Users and Groups” and “Rights” sections of the Access Control page
are not displayed. You must click the button again to display these sections and restore
the custom defaults. (TL-378)
