6.3 HP StoreAll Storage Release Notes (TA768-96086, April 2013)

If Fully Qualified Domain Name (FQDN) resolution is not configured properly for the hosts, the
following error appears when hpsmhd is restarted:
Could not reliably determine the server's fully qualified domain name,
using <ip> for ServerName
To configure FQDN resolution, use either the /etc/hosts file or the Domain Name Service.
If SNMP is logging excessively, add the following command to the file /etc/sysconfig/
snmpd.options to stop the logging:
OPTIONS="-LS 0-4 d -Lf /dev/null -p /var/run/snmpd.pid -a"
To enable the default SNMP logging, add a pound sign (#) to the following command in the file
/etc/sysconfig/snmpd.options and save the file:
# OPTIONS="-LS 0-4 d -Lf /dev/null -p /var/run/snmpd.pid -a"
Then restart the SNMP service:
service snmpd restart
On 9320/9720 systems, the virtual SAS manager and VC connect manager must be configured
manually for HP Support.
On HP SIM 7.1, 9320/9300 nodes are discovered as “HP 9320 NetStor FSN” if MSA storage
is registered on the cluster nodes. This does not affect sending alerts to HP Support.
StoreAll Windows clients
If an admin user creates a hard link on a Windows 2008 R2 system, the system terminates and
the link is not created. Ensure that the admin user has root permission before creating a hard link.
Reading of snaps as memory mapped files is not supported. Undesired results can occur if a snap
file is used as memory mapped file while the current version of the file is being modified by a
different instance.
ibrix_fsck command
The log files for user-initiated tasks (such as running ibrix_fsck and migrating or rebalancing
segments) are not rotated automatically. To control the space used by these log files, you will
need to maintain them manually. The log files are located in /usr/local/ibrix/log.
After running a tiering, rebalance or segment evacuation job, a phase 1 of the ibrix_fsck
command might display a message regarding “bad replica inodes. The following is an example
of the message from a phase 1 ibrix_fsck log:
Entry 'F000000060000FEAF.DAT' in
/.ibrixShadowRoot/s_1/g_367/i_100b335b7_edd68d01/D00000006000005FE
(11812038) has bad replica inode 17877133.
This message indicates that a replica inode was deleted from the file system by a user application,
but the directory entry (DENTRY) pointing to the replica has not been removed. There is not an
issue with the file system, and this situation does not impact file system operations. The DENTRY
that points to the deleted replica can be removed by running a phase 1 ibrix_fsck in corrective
mode. See the HP StoreAll Storage CLI Reference Guide for more information.
