Release Notes 6-66883-05 Rev A February 2011 New Features and Enhancements This release resolves issues in the i8. 1, i8. 1. 1, and i8. 1. 2 releases. [. . . ] It recommend that you do not use CPF with Tivoli Storage Manager on AIX since doing so will require manual intervention when it fails over and when you fail it back. 30801 30524 30394 A false failover ticket is generated when the Failback button used. CPF function breaks TSM on AIX configuration. 6 Known Issues Release Notes 6-66883-05 Rev A February 2011 Change Request Number 30302 Service Request Number Description Quantum i6000 with IBM LTO-5 FC drives cannot be configured when drives are directly connected to fiber switch within CA_Arcserve `12. 5 . 1 Host loses connection to IBM LTO-5 drives after drive topology is changed to Point-toPoint. Workaround Set the drives to either loop preferred or point-to-point in the i6000 GUI. 29947 IBM drives must be configured for Loop when configured behind an FC blade or if directly connected to an FC HBA. If the drive is direct connected to a FC switch then the IBM drive can be configured to Point-to-Point, Loop Preferred, or Loop only. At this time, do not use the Device Type filter of I/E Station. All direct FC attached HP LTO-5 drives--with EEBs--that are connected to a switch should be set to FC pointto-point mode instead of the default loop mode. If a MeDIA scan--normal or full-- completes and any of the media shows the scan status as Test in Progress after being tested, look for tape alerts against the media or drive in question. The tape probably has issues, which the tape alerts will clarify. Contact QLogic Support http:// solution. qlogic. com and refer to Qlogic KB article ID 1610. QLogic may request a `dump_support' file from the switch that is having the problem. 1G is not an acceptable setting for higher speed drives; it is an incompatible setting. Two workarounds are available: *Set the drive to use Soft Loop ID. Cannot connect to a library with SSL enabled at an HTTPS address. The Modify Partitions function on large systems succeeds, but does not indicate the correct number of slots, drives, or I/E stations. The 7404 GUI reboot operation is slow-- approximately 20 seconds. Installing EKM with IBM Java disables functioning Sun Java plug-in and i2000 Remote Management Interface (RMI) does not function after EKM install. Q-EKM enabled systems with more than 36 LTO-4 drives may fail with key/ASC/ASCQ: 4/ ee/e. This type of failure occurs only during extremely high amounts of key requests or move medium commands. Then if necessary, either run tape long erase operation one at a time or install IBM LTO 6. 0. 8. 2 driver. This functions as designed. 66379 18328 7404 HPF requires reboot of SUSE 9 UD4 server. 7404 HPF: the active port setting is not persistent, and a reboot can set it back to a failing port. SDLT 320 fails firmware update using FUP tape SDLT 600 drives fail to upgrade using AMC. 64283 This is only a problem with SDLT 320 drives with firmware V82 and older. If the upgrade fails, restart the library, and then perform the upgrade using AMC (making sure the previous version is identified as the drive firmware level). [. . . ] If the service login is disabled, you are unable to login via the service port when multiple IP addresses are available to the client. Make certain there is only one valid IP available on the client (disable wireless connections). Retry the update, and if the update still fails, try updating using the manual method. If the problem persists, contact technical support. [. . . ]
