6.1.5 HP StoreAll Storage Release Notes (AW549-96064, April 2013)

Data retention and validation
• The ibrix_reten_adm command fails if the date string specified with -e contains spaces. As
a workaround, use the following command to enter date strings containing spaces:
/usr/local/ibrix/sbin/ibr_reten_adm -e expire_time -f FSNAME -P PATHLIST
• The ibrix_vs_snap command cannot delete a block snapshot file system that is enabled for
data retention. Instead, use the ibrix_fs command with the -R option. For example:
ibrix_fs -d -f block_snap_ifs2_1 -R
• When the GUI or ibrix_reten_adm -r is used to remove a legal hold from a file, it displays
invalid errors about autocommit; however, the command completes successfully. You can ignore
the error messages.
• Directories are not supported in the path list for the ibrix_reten_adm command. However,
the command does not display the correct error message when the path list includes a directory.
• PDF reports do not display on Internet Explorer with Adobe Reader 10.1.2 installed. Reports
display properly with earlier versions of Adobe Reader or with other supported browsers.
• The ibrix_reten_adm -e command fails for WORM files that are not retained. If a WORM
file is not retained (either it has never been retained, or it was retained but its retention period
has expired), use the touch command to set its last accessed time (atime) forward to the desired
expiration time. The file will then be retained until that time.
• PDF reports cannot be generated from the GUI when using Windows Internet Explorer 8. To
display the PDF, use one of these options:
◦ On the browser, right-click in the white border surrounding the grey area, and select View
Source. Locate the src= line in the source. For example:
src="/fusion/reporting/retention/retention_ifs1.pdf#scrollbar=0"
width='100%' height='100%'/>
Prepend https://<hostname> to the path specified in the source and enter that URL in
the browser. Using the previous example, you would enter:
https://<hostname>/fusion/reporting/retention/retention_ifs1.pdf
◦ Log into the node specified as the hostname in the URL and go to the directory /usr/local/
ibrix/reports/output/retention, which contains the report.
Antivirus support
• If McAfee is used as a virus scan engine, when virus definitions are updated on the virus scan
engine, the updated definitions are not sent automatically to the IBRIX servers. To correct this
condition, request hotfix HF692368 from McAfee.
• For performance reasons, when an NDMP backup is in progress, Antivirus scans are not triggered
for the files being backed up. The IBRIX server excludes the process corresponding to NDMP from
scanning any files on a cluster with Antivirus enabled.
HP recommends that you disable Antivirus on the file system when a non-NDMP backup is in
progress. IBRIX cannot exclude a non-NDMP backup process from scanning files during a backup.
Disabling Antivirus prevents scans for files being backed up, which improves backup performance.
• When WebDAV is enabled, the internal WebDAV files in the root of the file system are scanned.
To exclude all .lock/.pag files in the .DAV and .webdav directories from scanning, complete
these steps:
1. After the WebDAV share is created, unset the immutable bits on .webdav directory:
# chattr -i .webdav/
