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.
4.3 For parallel SCSI Smart Array controllers • Partially disconnected disks and external cables are not properly detected by ioscan. If you remove all but one cable connecting external storage enclosures, or if you remove physical disks that are part of a logical drive from the enclosures, saconfig and sautil show the status of the logical drive as FAILED. However, ioscan reports the status of the disks incorrectly.
5.4 Other requirements • HP Support Tools Manager (STM) and Event Monitoring Service (EMS) You must use STM vD.01.00 or later and EMS vA.04.20 or later for support with Smart Array controllers. • HP-UX Virtual Partitions (vPars) You must install vPars vA.05.05 or later to use Smart Array Controllers in a vPars environment. 6 Related information The latest documentation for RAID-01 is available in English at http://www.hp.com/go/ smart-array-raid-docs.
