Virtual TapeServer 6.04.05 for NonStop Servers Release Notes

Known Issues | 33
 Device names beginning with $ result in ems_hostdevs and ems_virtdevs are not
logged. If VTS is used with an HP NonStop host and the device names begin with $, the
ems_hostdevs and ems_virtdevs values are blank in the log. This can cause confusion if
reviewing the logs. (TL-1562, EAR 4030)
SMTP and notifications
 Low disk space alert messages are sent regardless of the notifications_interval
parameter setting. This parameter specifies how often to check for notifications,
suggesting that it will limit the interval for the low disk space notifications to the host.
However, this parameter is not used. (TL-5159, EAR 6839)
Clustering (GFS)
 Pool Maintenance page loads slowly in a GFS environment. When you display the
Pool Maintenance page in a GFS environment, the page gathers all of the file system
statistics using the df command. On a busy GFS system or cluster that is fencing, df
hangs. (TL-434)
Utilities and services
 “Unknown cmd” errors displayed on boot. When reinstalling a system, the HP SIM
component causes these errors, which can be ignored. (TL-5971)
 HP SIM running on VTS 6.04.05 fails to function properly with a DL185. HP SIM
does not show several items on the System Management Homepage. (TL-5246)
 HP SIM and GFS conflict. A component of HP SIM could conflict with the port used by
GFS. This could cause one process to stop functioning if the other one is correctly working.
(TL-5252)
 Activity log is not displaying messages in date order. The latest job should be on the
top. (TL-4299)
WORKAROUND: Use the Clear Log button to correct the UI.
 Cannot open message log TAR file. If you attempt to open a message log TAR file, an
“Invalid Archive” error is displayed. (TL-4308)
WORKAROUND: Download and open the message log ZIP file.
 Cannot restart the httpd process because another process is using its port. After
stopping the httpd process, it cannot be restarted sometimes because another process is
listening on its port (80). (TL-4232)
WORKAROUND: Reboot or manually stop processes until port 80 is free.
 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 from the command line displays errors. Errors similar
to the following are displayed if you run the utility as root. (TL-3877)
