HP StorageWorks Automated Storage Manager 4.1 Release Notes (5697-0622, November 2010)

Issue: Data Protector Express 5.0 functionality is not available through ASM if Data Protector Express is installed
in Chinese, Japanese, or Korean
A problem with Data Protector Express installations in languages with multi-byte character sets disables the
integration of Data Protector Express and ASM. This only affects the use of Data Protector Express functionality
through the ASM user interface; there are no problems when using the Data Protector Express user interface
directly. There is also no problem with ASM integration if Data Protector Express is installed in a language
other than Chinese, Japanese, or Korean. The issue occurs with Data Protector Express 5.0 builds earlier than
60459. To determine the Data Protector Express version and build, select Help > About in the Data Protector
Express user interface. The problem occurs when the ASM Create a Virtual Library wizard is used. It displays
the error message Error executing GetVLDinfo.pl, HP DPX Software is required for DPX scripts to run. If any
of the other ASM wizards are used, on the Data Protection page the option for Tape or Other Device Backup
will be disabled, and the message No devices found is displayed.
Workaround: This issue has been resolved in Data Protector Express 5.0 build 60459 or greater. You can
download the latest version of Data Protector Express from http://www.hp.com/go/dataprotectorexpress.
When installing the newer Data Protector Express build, select Upgrade the existing installation when prompted.
