HP XP P9000 Command View Advanced Edition Suite Software 7.6.1-02 Release Notes (TB581-96399, March 2014)

You can check the status and the splitTime of the pair by executing one of the following commands:
• ModifyReplication (operation=split) or ModifyReplication
(operation=resync)
If the pair status is not Split, the pair operation is being performed. Wait a while, refresh the
storage system, and then verify the following:
◦ The pair status is Split.
◦ The value of splitTime is later than the time when the operation was executed.
• ModifyReplication (operation=restore)
If the pair status is Reverse-Copying, the pair is being restored. Wait a while, refresh the storage
system, and then check that the pair status is Split.
Displaying the Associated Internal Parity Group on the External Volumes tab
If volumes on an external storage system are mapped to the internal storage system, a hyphen (-) is
displayed in the Associated Internal Parity Group for the volumes shown on the External Volumes tab.
If this issue occurs, refresh the external storage system.
The Plan Confirmation window for unvirtualized volumes
When you transition from the Unvirtualize Volumes dialog box to the Plan Confirmation window, the
target parity group might not be displayed if there are already volumes that were unvirtualized .
This issue does not occur if the storage system was refreshed to display the latest updated information.
Discovering volumes for virtualization
If there are many external volumes that are candidates for virtualization, volume discovery might take
a long time.
The following formula is a rough approximation of the required time for volume discovery.
Required time (in sec.) = [(number of external volumes) x (number of selected external paths) x 0.02]

Changing the status of copy pair
Do not specify the copytracksize parameter when the CLI command ModifyReplication is
executed, and the status of XP Snapshot or Fast Snap is changed.
When the copy pair operation generates the 7757 error code
If a copy pair operation is performed from the CLI, the operation might generate the following error
codes:
KAIC90083-E (error code: 7757) An error was detected in the host agent.
Details: "An attempt to start an instance temporarily used by Device
Manager agent has failed."
This issue might be caused by either of the following:
• The instance number or the service number that the Device Manager agent will temporarily use
is already being used.
• The command device recognized by the pair management server is unavailable.
