Table 6 HP-UX 11i v3 March 2010 Fixes — RAID-01 B.11.31.1003 SR Number Description QXCR1000863084 I/O hangs occur under heavy load. QXCR1000914639 MSI-X interrupts are not assigned with HBA locality taken into consideration. QXCR1000934272 The ciss driver does not support the GET_SCSI_DISK_BINDING ioctl. QXCR1000934287 The ciss driver causes a panic in rare circumstances on systems with very low memory.
NOTE: If you remove the dynamically loaded ciss driver while it is in use, or if you remove the statically loaded ciss driver at any time, you must perform a reboot. This is normal behavior under these conditions, and is not affected by patch PHCO_36356. • Automatic hot-plug is not detected. The HP Smart Array Controllers do not automatically detect the hot-plug of internal disks. Corrective Action: After replacing a physical disk, run the sautil command with the scan option. 4.

You can download the RAID-01 B.11.31.0909 bundle from the HP website at http:// www.hp.com/go/softwaredepot. Search for RAID-01. • SAS Storage Enclosure Status display issue in sautil command output.

Each channel has two connectors (one internal and one external), but only one connector can be used per channel at any given time.
