Known issues
This section describes the known issues related to the Director 2/64 and
Director 2/140.
HSG80 transparent mode not supported with IBM AIX
Use of an HSG80 with IBM AIX is restricted to operating the HSG80 in Multibus
mode with the Director 2/64 and Director 2/140. Transparent mode is not
supported at this time.
Workaround
None.
HSG80 transparent mode not recommended with controller in SCSI-3 mode with
HP-UX operating systems
Due to an issue with non-existent duplicate LUNs being displayed with the
HP-UX operating systems, the HSG80 controller is restricted to SCSI-2 mode of
operation when set to Transparent failover mode.
SCSI-3 mode of operation in Multibus failover mode is fully supported with the
use of Secure Path software, 3.0 or later versions.
Workaround
None.
ISL disconnect causes NOS error with the OpenVMS operating systems
When an ISL connection is physically removed between directors or switches, the
Fibre Channel Adapter model FCA2354 transmits a Not Operational Sequence
(NOS) error. This is observed as an entry in the HAFM appliance Link Incident
log for the port in which the FCA2354 is attached. The director’s Hardware View
also displays a yellow triangle icon over the port that detected this incident. The
fabric operation or data movement is not disrupted by these incidents, and you can
clear alerts from these incidences using the following procedure.
