Virtual TapeServer 8.3 Release Notes

Known Issues | 50
 Virtual tapes are unusable by other systems if one clustered system crashes.
Virtual tapes within a VTL are indicated by an attribute saved on the file system with the
virtual tape. The attribute is managed by the system that hosts the virtual tape library. If
that VTS hosting the VTL crashes and is never recovered, the attributes will remain on
the file system. This issue will likely only affect GFS customers. (TL-5742)
WORKAROUND: Remove the attribute from the command line to allow use of that
virtual tape.
 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, services, and logging
 HP SIM 6.3 is not supported on the DL185G5. The message “ERROR: This Server is
NOT Supported!” will be seen when trying to start the services associated with HP SIM.
(TL-8137, EAR-9594)
 Error in the job log after job successfully completes. This error message is listed in
the job log:
ERROR> keepalive.cgi:170 keepalive - The indicated process is not
running
It appears that the job may have failed, though it completed and is in the post-processing
phase. This error can be ignored. (TL-7362, EAR-8490)
 versioncheck.log shows “did not match !” for all entries. Messages in
versioncheck.log are no longer relevant. VTS now uses different source versioning
software that does not use this old functionality. This log can be ignored. (TL-7378)
 Error message in vts-post-install.log. The message is a result of trying to change
mode on a directory that does not yet exist:
chmod: cannot access `/var/log/crds/rath_manager.log': No such file
or directory.
This message can be ignored. (TL-7380)
 Fatal message in vts-post-install.log. This message is a result of stopping the
cpuspeed service which is intentional:
- FATAL: Could not load /lib/modules/2.6.18-92.el5/modules.dep: No
such file or directory.
This message can be ignored. (TL-7379)
 Error displayed in ks_backup.log file if encryption is not configured. When
encryption has not been configured, the following message may be repeated in the
ks_backup.log file:
ERROR: relation “ks_backup_hosts” does not exist
These messages are harmless and can be ignored. (TL-6708)
 HP Sim System management Homepage is missing info on Dl185 G5. (TL-6191)
 “Unknown cmd” errors displayed on boot. When reinstalling a system, the HP SIM
component causes these errors, which can be ignored. (TL-5971)
