6.2.2 HP IBRIX 9000 Storage Release Notes (AW549-96061, January 2013)

1. Enter the hpsp_couplet_info -i command to get a list of UUID for attached MSA
enclosures. Each enclosure is on a separate line, as shown in the following example of the
command and its output:
[root@ib25-02s1 security]# hpsp_couplet_info -i
500c0ff1390c0000
2. Install the credentials for a single MSA by running the following four commands once for
each MSA that the hpsp_couplet_info command lists in step 1. Replace
<MSA_SAS_BASE_ADDRESS> with one of the UUIDs as provided by the output of the
hpsp_couplet_info command.
hpsp_credmgmt --update-cred -s
couplet:couplet/array/<MSA_SAS_BASE_ADDRESS>/mgmtport_a/rw
--cred-type upwpair --cred-username manage --cred-password '!manage'
hpsp_credmgmt --update-cred -s
couplet:couplet/array/<MSA_SAS_BASE_ADDRESS>/mgmtport_a/ro
--cred-type upwpair --cred-username monitor --cred-password
'!monitor'
hpsp_credmgmt --update-cred -s
couplet:couplet/array/<MSA_SAS_BASE_ADDRESS>/mgmtport_b/rw
--cred-type upwpair --cred-username manage --cred-password '!manage'
hpsp_credmgmt --update-cred -s
couplet:couplet/array/<MSA_SAS_BASE_ADDRESS>/mgmtport_b/ro
--cred-type upwpair --cred-username monitor --cred-password
'!monitor'
3. To verify your installation of the credentials, list the credentials by entering the following
command:
hpsp_credmgmt --get-cred -s couplet:couplet/* --output-sl
The command displays the credentials for your system. Your output would differ from the
following example to reflect your system configuration:
10.125.2.221|monitor|!monitor|couplet:couplet/array/500c0ff1390c0000/mgmtport_b/ro
10.125.2.221|manage|!manage|couplet:couplet/array/500c0ff1390c0000/mgmtport_b/rw
10.125.2.220|monitor|!monitor|couplet:couplet/array/500c0ff1390c0000/mgmtport_a/ro
10.125.2.220|manage|!manage|couplet:couplet/array/500c0ff1390c0000/mgmtport_a/rw
Hardware monitoring will continue to show a storage cluster in a DEGRADED state when an MSA
snapshot LUN is removed due to the reserve LUN getting full or the user removing the block
snapshot from an IBRIX 9320 Storage platform. To resolve this issue, stop the monitoring process
via the /etc/init.d/hpspmon stop command. The monitoring process will be restarted
automatically and will reset the statuses.
Issues with just the IBRIX 9320 Storage Platform:
If an MSA I/O module is MISSING the status of its sensors (Capacitor, Temp) will appear
as UNKNOWN. After the I/O module is replaced there is a period of one minute during
which status for all sensors in the array is unavailable. The statuses will be corrected in the
next monitoring polling cycle.
If there is a hardware event involving a fan in a D2700 drive enclosure then the location of
the fan will incorrectly state that it is part of the enclosure’s power supply. The fan is a separate
FRU in the D2700 drive enclosure.
Disconnected SAS cables between D2700 small form factor drive enclosures are not detected
by the hardware. Monitoring software will not report lack of redundancy in connectivity to
