Virtual TapeServer 8.3 Release Notes

Known Issues | 31
 Change Group option not available after adding new user and group. After
adding a new user and group, you must deselect the new user in the Users drop-down list
and then select it again to get the “Change Group” option to appear. (TL-3278)
 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.
 Cannot re-log in to the web interface using the Log In button. If you are logged in
as a non-administrative user, you must close the browser window and log in again as an
administrator. The Log In button on the interface will not log you in as another user. (TL-
1033)
 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)
Certificate Management
 For the VTS product, an SSL certificate that is set to expire within 24 hours will
be automatically regenerated. Certificates generated by the VTS product under
normal circumstances use SHA1 authentication, but the regeneration code uses SHA256
authentication. This could cause some Internet Explorer installation to lose access to the
VTS product web interface. (TL-8123, EAR-9460, EAR-9472)
WORKAROUND: Generate a new certificate via the web interface before the certificate
expires; if this is not possible, use another browser to generate a certificate from the web
interface.
 Revoking original certificate indicates “Certificate revoked” though it cannot
be. When attempting to revoke “Original Certificate”, the web interface says “Certificate
revoked.” However, the certificate is not revoked. The message should indicate that the
original self-signed certificate cannot be revoked. (TL-5951)
 Select Usages checkbox on Edit Certificate form is confusing. This option
activates the certificate; it should be renamed. (TL-5677)
 Importing invalid certificate displays error. Attempting to import an invalid
certificate displays the error “Nested asn1 error”. (TL-4822)
