DETAILS OF INCIDENTS FIXED BY THE PATCH --------------------------------------- This patch fixes the following Symantec incidents: PATCH ID:vom-HF0610600 * 3732924 (Tracking ID: 3700501) SYMPTOM: Windows Server 2003 is incorrectly shown as an applicable host for VOM managed host install. This can lead to an unsupported install of Windows Server 2003. DESCRIPTION: Windows Server 2003 is incorrectly shown as an applicable host for deployment as a VOM managed host. VOM no longer supports Windows Server 2003. RESOLUTION: Fail the install of the VOM managed host for Windows Server 2003. * 3736469 (Tracking ID: 3753105) SYMPTOM: Ncore to license shown were more than actual physical cores on hyperthreading enabled hosts on Linux. DESCRIPTION: CPUINFO which used to calculate number of cores does not gives information if a core is physical core of virtual. RESOLUTION: Made changes to check if hyperthreading enabled then count threads per core and use that value to count actual Ncore to license. * 3740142 (Tracking ID: 3668419) SYMPTOM: The vxdclid daemon is not running and therefore the vxlist command will not give output. DESCRIPTION: The vxdclid daemon may core dump whey querying for VxVM volume set tags. This must not be done when no volume set tags are present. RESOLUTION: Skip checking for volume set tags when no such tags are present. * 3776019 (Tracking ID: 3776022) SYMPTOM: When VxFS patches are installed on the host, VOM UI still shows that critical updates are missing even though they are installed. DESCRIPTION: VOM discovery was not correctly discovering the patches installed. Hence it was still reporting as critical updates are missing from the host. RESOLUTION: The sfha_version.pl script which discovers the SFHA patches installed was fixed to discover the FS patches. Now VOM does not report critical updates are missing if the patches are installed. * 3764885 (Tracking ID: 3764880) SYMPTOM: When any Managed Host reports data to Management Server, DBSync log file on Management Server, has entry of failed to open sfm_sys.conf file. DESCRIPTION: This message is logged by INI parser module, as it doesn't find file sfm_sys.conf, it is asked to parse. RESOLUTION: Checked existence of file sfm_sys.conf, before asking INI parser module to parse it. * 3760914 (Tracking ID: 3760913) SYMPTOM: dbsync.log file logged with 22003 error messages "ERROR: integer out of range" for P_AUDIT_LOG table. DESCRIPTION: Issue is with primary key ID which is with SERIAL data type having range from 1 to 2147483647 and because of UPSERTRULE the id columns generated values are going out of SERIAL range. RESOLUTION: Modified the primary key data type to BIGSERIAL. * 3776019 (Tracking ID: 3776022) SYMPTOM: When VxFS patches are installed on the host, VOM UI still shows that critical updates are missing even though they are installed. DESCRIPTION: VOM discovery was not correctly discovering the patches installed. Hence it was still reporting as critical updates are missing from the host. RESOLUTION: The sfha_version.pl script which discovers the SFHA patches installed was fixed to discover the FS patches. Now VOM does not report critical updates are missing if the patches are installed. * 3778452 (Tracking ID: 3763940) SYMPTOM: Unable to upgrade VRTSsfmh to 6.1 from Veritas Operations Manager Web GUI with error in setup.pl. DESCRIPTION: Unable to upgrade VRTSsfmh to 6.1 from Veritas Operations Manager Web GUI with error in setup.pl because of missing variable. RESOLUTION: Added missing variable in setup.pl while generating it. * 3780579 (Tracking ID: 3766961) SYMPTOM: The vxlist command times out and therefore VOM does not discovery Volume Manager objects on UNIX and Linux DESCRIPTION: vxlist times out because vxdclid is not responding. vxdclid is hanging on queries to disks in a Volume Manager error state RESOLUTION: Skip Volume Manager disk queries for disks in error state PATCH ID:vom-HF0610500 * INCIDENT NO:3662841 TRACKING ID:3663615 SYMPTOM: Installation of Hotfix fails on solaris 11 Managed Host while installing through vomadm. DESCRIPTION: While trying to install Hotfix on a Sol 11 box using vomadm, we were mistakenly picking up the tar.gz from incorrect directory RESOLUTION: Modified the code to take cpu type also in consideration while fetching tar.gz from the store. * INCIDENT NO:3734134 TRACKING ID:3734126 SYMPTOM: In the "Availability" perspective when a cluster is selected in the left pane and "Service Group Status" on the upper pane the status of a host is not updated when a host is hard powered off. DESCRIPTION: In the "Availability" perspective when a cluster is selected in the left pane and "Service Group Status" on the upper pane the status of a host is not updated when a host is hard powered off. The fault is detected in other views, but not in this one. On a hard power off the last status is preserved and the service groups are marked online both on the powered off host where it was last online and the new host where it was migrated to due to the fault. RESOLUTION: Changed the sql query to display a stale when node is down. * INCIDENT NO:3753106 TRACKING ID:3753105 SYMPTOM: Ncore to license shown were more than actual physical cores on hyper-threading enabled hosts on Linux. DESCRIPTION: CPUINFO which used to calculate number of cores does not gives information if a core is physical core or virtual. RESOLUTION: Made changes to check if hyper-threading enabled then count threads per core and use that value to count actual Ncore to license. * INCIDENT NO:3753563 TRACKING ID:3753565 SYMPTOM: vxprint -Vl does not show more than 255 characters hence not all the associated volumes are not available. DESCRIPTION: If the length of the volume names in data vols key in vxprint -Vl goes more than 55 characters, then vxprint -Vl skips displaying the later volumes. Since, the complete volume list is unavailable some volumes are not displayed. RESOLUTION: Modified the discovery to get the list of volumes from a different command. * INCIDENT NO:3757978 TRACKING ID:3763970 SYMPTOM: VOM is vulnerable to the SSLv3 POODLE(CVE-2014-3566) attack. DESCRIPTION: The man-in-the-middle POODLE attack takes advantage of the protocol version negotiation feature built into SSL/TLS to force the use of SSL 3.0 and then leverage this new vulnerability to decrypt select content within the SSL session. RESOLUTION: Update the OpenSSL to version 0.9.8zc which has the fix for this vulnerability. * INCIDENT NO:3761954 TRACKING ID:3761953 SYMPTOM: If different rules are created on different organizations in Server perspective, notification of fault/risk may be received by recipient of different rule too. DESCRIPTION: If different rules are created on different organizations in Server perspective, SNMP/SMTP notification for fault/risk which MS raises on behalf of MH(e.g. xprtld not running on MH, MH reinstalled) goes to Rule subscriber of organizations to which MS belongs instead of Rule subscriber of organizations to which faulted MH belongs. RESOLUTION: If rule is scoped on Organizations in Server perspective, and faults which are raised by MS on behalf of MH, decision of applicable rule for a fault/risk will be taken considering faulted host. PATCH ID:vom-HF0610400 * INCIDENT NO:3685523 TRACKING ID:3705009 SYMPTOM: Alerts related to disk groups are seen in VEA but not reported to VOM. DESCRIPTION: Due to corruption of alerts.cache file disk group alerts are not seen in VOM after Hf5 is installed. RESOLUTION: Added the handling of alerts.cache file's parsing. * INCIDENT NO:3701225 TRACKING ID:3709304 SYMPTOM: VOM is vulnerable to the SSLv3 POODLE(CVE-2014-3566) attack. DESCRIPTION: The man-in-the-middle POODLE attack takes advantage of the protocol version negotiation feature built into SSL/TLS to force the use of SSL 3.0 and then leverages this new vulnerability to decrypt select content within the SSL session. RESOLUTION: Update the OpenSSL to version 0.9.8zc which has the fix for this vulnerability. * INCIDENT NO:3708334 TRACKING ID:3708193 SYMPTOM: VOM does not recognize SFHA versions of 6.1.1.x and incorrectly gives a warning that the host missing critical patches. DESCRIPTION: VOM does not recognize SFHA versions of 6.1.1.x and incorrectly gives a warning that the host missing critical patches. RESOLUTION: Update the patch discovery module to recognize version 6.1.1.x. * INCIDENT NO:3727593 TRACKING ID:3737995 SYMPTOM: Risk and threshold value cannot be set more than 10, 000 DESCRIPTION: When attempting to create the tier policy based on SPVU if the threshold is set more than 10000 a pop-up is displayed with error "Risk and fault thresholds must be less than 10000". RESOLUTION: Removed the constraint for maximum value of 10000 from fault and risk threshold * INCIDENT NO:3733986 TRACKING ID:3694801 SYMPTOM: While doing Agentless hosts configuration using 'csv' file, you can not set privilege control software & its location. DESCRIPTION: While doing Agentless hosts configuration using 'csv' file, you can not set privilege control software like 'sudo' & its location (e.g. /usr/sbin). RESOLUTION: Added support to add privilege control software name and its location using .csv file. * INCIDENT NO:3733990 TRACKING ID:3729074 SYMPTOM: If you are discovering agentless Linux host using non root user then discovery may go in failed state. DESCRIPTION: Agentless discovery of Linux Host may go in failed state using non root user. This is due to non existence of powermt etc commands on host. RESOLUTION: Handled the discovery if some of the discovery commands like powermt not found on hosts. * INCIDENT NO:3737673 TRACKING ID:3737670 SYMPTOM: Failed to configure IBM SVC Enclosure using private certificate, this asks for password as well. DESCRIPTION: While configuring IBM SVC enclosure using private certificate, VOM says that password field is mandatory. RESOLUTION: Made password field in IBM SVC Configuration page 'not mandatory'. * INCIDENT NO:3738427 TRACKING ID:3738428 SYMPTOM: If different rules are created on different organizations in Server perspective, notification of fault/risk may be received by recipient of different rule too. DESCRIPTION: If different rules are created on different organizations in Server perspective, SNMP/SMTP notification of fault/risk on shared object between hosts across different organizations may be received by recipient of different rule too. RESOLUTION: If rule is scoped on organizations in Server perspective, decision of applicable rule for a fault/risk will be taken considering host which is raising it and not the actual object on which the fault/risk is raised. * INCIDENT NO:3741197 TRACKING ID:3741193 SYMPTOM: Blocked LDR family discovery (dbsync) processes observed and SP_LDR_TIER_MAPPING stored proc in progress since ~8 hours. DESCRIPTION: Issue is with the business logic in SP_LDR_TIER_MAPPING stored proc which gets executed from within SP_update_ldr_info() proc. In tier mapping proc, for a host if there is no exact match found in PRICE TIER then there exists loop which iterates over this table to find best match for host's LDR info and it was observed that this loop was being performed for all the hosts irrespective of referring into look up table's similar entries. This is contributing to very poor performance and on in-house DB it took ~16 hours for this procedure to complete. RESOLUTION: Modified the business logic in SP_LDR_TIER_MAPPING to improve execution performance. In addition to performance, also corrected THREADS_PER_CORE calculation in tier mapping. This value was found incorrect for the all the hosts which fall in best match category. PATCH ID:vom-HF0610300 * INCIDENT NO:3613957 TRACKING ID:3613956 SYMPTOM: Unable to add a host to VOM after upgrade to VOM 6.1 DESCRIPTION: A Java exception occurs because of a database integer overflow which results in an incorrect record value. RESOLUTION: Modify the database stored procedure function to properly insert serial id linearly. * INCIDENT NO:3636992 TRACKING ID:3636983 SYMPTOM: After upgrading MH, VOM shows the MH status as "Not Installed" DESCRIPTION: After the MH upgrade to 6.1, VOM shows the MH as not installed when it should be showing it as installed. RESOLUTION: The issue was due to the change in naming convention of SORT for VOM packages from vom-6.1.0.0-cms to vom-6.1.0.0_cms (hyphen replaced by underscore). This caused the VOM store discovery to not report and show the status as not installed. The Store discovery was fixed to accommodate the changed convention. * INCIDENT NO:3658763 TRACKING ID:3658760 SYMPTOM: Integer out of range exceptions during remove MH operation. DESCRIPTION: Delete host operation inserts log data into P_SF_OBJ_MOD_LOG. However database log table P_SF_OBJ_MOD_LOG is bloated and integer out of range exceptions are reported for additional data inserts. This is because of the primary key which is of SERIAL type and UPSERT RULE combination which results in bloat of primary key column values thereby rejecting any further data inserts. Also one of the stored procedure which gets called during deleting host had issues and was forcing the rollback of entire delete host operation. RESOLUTION: Empty P_SF_OBJ_MOD_LOG table, reset table's primary key sequence and drop the UPSERT RULE of table. Additionally fixed get_sfm_rpt_host_id() stored procedure. * INCIDENT NO:3685545 TRACKING ID:3685137 SYMPTOM: Database insert slowness, blocking queries and MH discovery request rejections. DESCRIPTION: The update/insert SQL queries on the CMS are running very slow and resulting into other discovery requests SQL queries waiting state for very long periods of time. This causes the waiting discovery triggered connection requests to be rejected and hence the updated data is not reflected in the CMS database. The xdbadm cli binary which is used to send update queries into the database results into blocking queries and acquired locks for the entire execution session. Issue is because xdbadm is running entire SQL in one big transaction and hence is not releasing DB table locks thereby blocking other requests and hence overall slow activity because other parallel requests are waiting to acquire locks to perform their activity. RESOLUTION: In xdbadm cli binary the ODBC setting auto-commit was made off in Sybase but with PostgreSQLs default auto-commit behavior this ODBC setting is not required. Hence optimized xdbadm binary to not have auto-commit setting and the overall queries now run faster. * INCIDENT NO:3686082 TRACKING ID:3691731 SYMPTOM: Log file size of 34 GB with /var at 98% full DESCRIPTION: At present in 6.1 GA there is no log rotation set for database log file SFMdb3.dblog file and as a result size of the database log SFMdb3.dblog was observed in GBs (34 GB) for customer scenario. Due to this it becomes challenging for the field and support engineers to gather log for evidences. Also further for engineering its difficult to mine data from such a huge log file. RESOLUTION: Tuned database log SFMdb3.dblog rotation settings for better optimization and troubleshooting of database log file. * INCIDENT NO:3688167 TRACKING ID:3688166 SYMPTOM: Add host fails intermittently and there are CGI connection rejection errors on the MH. DESCRIPTION: The DB update calls are getting rejected, even though there are no currently running dbsync.pl process. This happens because the connection queue gets full and the connections were not getting de-queued on expiry. Restart of xprtld service allowed the add host to proceed. RESOLUTION: The connection handling in xprtld daemon has been fixed to also de- queue the connections on expiry preventing the rejection of incoming connections. * INCIDENT NO:3695787 TRACKING ID:3671234 SYMPTOM: HBAs, other than Emulex and QLogic may cause the issue. DESCRIPTION: If there are HBAs other than QLogic & Emulex then HBA vendor name discovery corrupts the SF family sfm.dump and this results in filling up DB logs with error messages. RESOLUTION: Put a check to identify non Emulex and QLogic HBAs. Others HBAs Vendor's name will be discovered as Unknown. * INCIDENT NO:3698407 TRACKING ID:3698406 SYMPTOM: Database insert slowness, long running dbsync processes and hence gendeploy rejections. DESCRIPTION: The environment has VCS cluster nodes configured and single VCS MH discovery triggered dbsync activity is taking more than expected time to complete. Since dbsync process execution is slow this results into xprtlc timeout of gendeploy request and finally failure to add host via gendeploy. The VCS MH dbsync processes are slow because all the VCS tables have a trigger which performs inserts on this HIST table and further the UPSERT RULE on HIST table adds the overhead of validating INSERT/UPDATE while doing search on this table which results into expensive query plan. The rule on VCS HIST is not required since it overall adds the overhead to VCS tables inserts wherein every insert SQL is taking almost 1 sec to complete which ideally should be ~0.2 sec. RESOLUTION: Removed UPSERT RULE on VCS history table - p_vcs_hist. * INCIDENT NO:3700127 TRACKING ID:3718074 SYMPTOM: No REST API support was available for Licenses. DESCRIPTION: Customer needs REST API for licenses > Deployment details view and Deployment by SPVU report. No REST API support was available for licenses. RESOLUTION: Added 2 REST APIS * INCIDENT NO:3703624 TRACKING ID:3703625 SYMPTOM: Slow read performance of database. DESCRIPTION: At present in 6.1 GA product ships with default postgres configuration settings. Many of these settings if tuned provides better read and write database performance. RESOLUTION: A perl script modify_pg_conf.pl which modifies DB parameters for better performance based on total physical memory of the system is now shipped and executed at install time. * INCIDENT NO:3717037 TRACKING ID:3548269 SYMPTOM: Constant increase in size of log file. DESCRIPTION: Success messages, info messages as well as some queries were getting logged in the log file. Due to this log was unnecessarily filled up and size was increasing. RESOLUTION: Removed most of the inessential messages, rest redirected to internal logs. * INCIDENT NO:3693971 TRACKING ID:3693967 SYMPTOM: sfhbaapp.exe crashes. DESCRIPTION: On Windows host with storage attached greater than 2 TB, the sfhbaapp.exe crashes. Reason behind crash is DeviceIOControl call with command READ_CAPACITY_16 fails. Due to this the capacity value remain uninitialized and at later point in time when it was accessed it gives access violation error and creates dump. RESOLUTION: Initialized the capacity value to zero. If DeviceIOControl fails, will get the capacity using DiskGeometry. * INCIDENT NO:3703516 TRACKING ID:3660809 SYMPTOM: The portlets in deployment overview tab keeps showing data loading message. It takes too much time to show data. DESCRIPTION: If management server is managing more than 1000 hosts on which Storage Foundation or Storage Foundation HA products are installed, the database queries take time to retrieve data from the database. RESOLUTION: The optimized database queries have been provided. PATCH ID:vom-HF0610200 * INCIDENT NO:3544014 TRACKING ID:3544024 SYMPTOM: veaintf doesn't spawn msfocreg.exe. DESCRIPTION: It happens because veaintf checks existence of msfocreg.exe in invalid location and exit with an error that file doesn't exist. Therefore veaintf doesn't spawn msfocreg. RESOLUTION: Changes done to check file existence in valid location. * INCIDENT NO:3554888 TRACKING ID:3554764 SYMPTOM: Disk type resources from CVM were being shown twice in VOM availability perspective. DESCRIPTION: If disk type resources are configured in CVM, and if such a resource is part of a parallel service group, and if the disk type attribute is set differently for that resource on each member host, then its entry was displayed twice in tree view, even if it was a single resource. RESOLUTION: Made changes to database view that shows resources in tree view in availability perspective to get rid of unnecessary storage related joins. * INCIDENT NO:3558091 TRACKING ID:3558088 SYMPTOM: Switch configuration fails if password has single quotes (') DESCRIPTION: While configuring switch, if switch password contains single quotes, UI fails while saving this configuration due to single quote (') in password. RESOLUTION: Allow single quote (') in password as backend discovery is supported but to handle this character, escape single quote character (') from password before saving it. * INCIDENT NO:3560778 TRACKING ID:3560777 SYMPTOM: Issues with disk discovery when LUNZ devices are present. DESCRIPTION: VOM was incorrectly showing the LUNZ devices as Disks. RESOLUTION: Modified the code to exclude the LUNZ devices from Disk as well as Devicepath tables. This fix is applicable only for SFW hosts. * INCIDENT NO:3562000 TRACKING ID:3517052 SYMPTOM: mismatch between VOM and Sort for SPVU calculation. DESCRIPTION: Customer has global zones which are in cluster. SPVU shown in the view does not match with the SPVU popup. All global zones in the cluster have same model, cores and processors except for one. Hence the SPVU-per-core value for that zone is different. Stored procedure considered cores from all global zones including the one for which spvu-per-core was different. Popup did not consider this zone. Hence the values did not match. RESOLUTION: Made change such that one distinct cluster node will have its own SPVU calculation. So, even if make/cores/processors are different for zones in cluster, SPVU will be calculated accordingly. Ensured that SPVU True-up report should sum-up SPVUs from all these zones and show Total SPVU for the product correctly. * INCIDENT NO:3563162 TRACKING ID:3563150 SYMPTOM: VVR RVGs displayed on the wrong host in CMS Console with host aliasing. DESCRIPTION: If VVR is configured with host alias, then host reports incorrect RVGs. It happens because host-id was getting reported for remote RVG as well. RESOLUTION: Changes done to report host-id only for local RVG, not for remote RVG. * INCIDENT NO:3564824 TRACKING ID:3564823 SYMPTOM: Unable to delete Availability perspective Organization object. DESCRIPTION: When an OE has some child elements associated and they later are removed, OE can't be deleted immediately with the error saying OE has associated child objects. This is due to views related to Cluster do not get cleaned up and stale entry under OE is not deleted resulting in error. RESOLUTION: Added clean-up logic for stale VCS related and static_view objects in the OE during the post host deletion time. * INCIDENT NO:3568891 TRACKING ID:3526792 SYMPTOM: VOM doesn't display RVG and host relationships properly in CVR environment. DESCRIPTION: Host and RVG relationship flip-flops among the hosts in cluster. This happens because all hosts in cluster reports same RVG in their SF discovery cycle. RESOLUTION: For shared RVG, every host in cluster will report on behalf of LogOwner's host-id. It will avoid flip-flop issue and all shared RVG will be displayed under LogOwner only. * INCIDENT NO:3575234 TRACKING ID:3577772 SYMPTOM: Layout is not displayed for LVM volumes if VOM HF1 or subsequent HFs are installed. DESCRIPTION: Layout is not displayed for LVM volumes if HF1 is installed. This happened because while fixing one issue, key in hash was not updated. RESOLUTION: Fixed key population in hash that maintains mapping of LVM volume to layout. * INCIDENT NO:3575748 TRACKING ID:3575745 SYMPTOM: For policy check called IP resource check, resource ID is shown in violation details instead of resource name. And, the policy check does not work for a global cluster/host in global cluster. DESCRIPTION: Violation details view shows resource ID instead of resource name. Policy check does not work for a global cluster/host in global cluster. RESOLUTION: Changes have been made in violation details view to show resource ID. Specific command is fired in case of global cluster/host in global cluster to make the policy check run successfully on it. * INCIDENT NO:3585568 TRACKING ID:3585566 SYMPTOM: False alert for VCS license not present is raised in case SF campus cluster DR is configured. DESCRIPTION: Initially VCS installed check was not done and alert was raised for any campus cluster configured and VCS licenses not present. Causing DR license missing message even in case SF DR is configured. RESOLUTION: Made changes to check if DR is configured, raise alert if and only if VCS is configured. Alert won't be raised in case VCS is installed but not configured. * INCIDENT NO:3585625 TRACKING ID:3573940 SYMPTOM: In VOM, user not able to select FSS option while Creating DG from Cluster in SFRAC env due to Cluster type RAC DESCRIPTION: Check for Cluster type is present which checks if cluster is of type CVM or CVS so option is disabled for cluster type 'RAC' RESOLUTION: Check for cluster sub type removed. FSS DG creation will be allowed for all hosts with FSS flag on. * INCIDENT NO:3590152 TRACKING ID:3590151 SYMPTOM: Even if disks from a VCS diskgroup type resource are connected to all clustered nodes, they are reported as disconnected when Disk connectivity policy check is run on host/Organization entity. DESCRIPTION: The disk connectivity policy check reports incorrect violations, and also does not show LUN ID in violation details. RESOLUTION: Correction has been made in disk connectivity policy check, and LUN ID are shown in violation details. * INCIDENT NO:3592242 TRACKING ID:3642699 SYMPTOM: Set credential operation for secure databases fails.

RESOLUTION: Check for thread creation failure and close opened file descriptors. * INCIDENT NO:3593646 TRACKING ID:3593642 SYMPTOM: HF install will fail if there is insufficient space in /tmp. DESCRIPTION: HF Deploy uses /tmp directory to extract tarball, if /tmp doesn't have sufficient space then HF install will fail. RESOLUTION: Extracting tar into appdir to avoid it. * INCIDENT NO:3593686 TRACKING ID:3593632 SYMPTOM: Base Release displays incorrect information for SFHA-RHEL6_x86_64-6.2. DESCRIPTION: SFHA-RHEL6_x86_64-6.2 is visible in Infra->Deployment->HotFix->Name panel and marked as GA. This SF version is not yet released, just archived in SORT "in development" mode only. RESOLUTION: If the enable-sort-test file is present in CMS, only then report "in development" product's information. * INCIDENT NO:3615771 TRACKING ID:3615769 SYMPTOM: Add host failing with MH having English-UK locale. DESCRIPTION: This is platform specific issue, issue is observed on Windows 2008 SP2. Add host failing with MH having English-UK locale, it happens because systeminfo command return OS version with special characters. RESOLUTION: Now executing systeminfo command in en-US locale to avoid special characters. * INCIDENT NO:3629749 TRACKING ID:3629745 SYMPTOM: VxFS file system report usage is not getting updated, reports are incorrect. DESCRIPTION: For the report 'VxFs File Systems with Highest % of Used Capacity' file systems with higher usage were not listed in reports. File systems of lower usage are listed instead. RESOLUTION: Query used to list the file systems was showing reports in ascending order, changed it to descending. * INCIDENT NO:3633211 TRACKING ID:3571489 SYMPTOM: Top Hosts for Thin Reclamation Report is not showing hosts which has Thin Reclaimable luns from VMAX array. DESCRIPTION: Top Hosts for Thin Reclamation report under Server Perspective does not show hosts and thin reclaimable vxfs file systems if they are using storage from Symmetrix VMAX arrays. The reason behind this issue is that vxdisk -o thin, fssize list does not provide PHYS_ALLOC(mb) value for Thin Reclaimable luns which is from EMC Symmetrix VMAX array. RESOLUTION: After applying this fix on VOM CMS, you should configure and discover EMC Symmetrix VMAX arrays in VOM CMS using Storage Insight add-on. As per technote TECH153261, Consumed Capacity Of Symmetrix Disk discovered via SI-Addon is being considered as value of PHYS_ALLOC(mb). * INCIDENT NO:3646306 TRACKING ID:3653045 SYMPTOM: Fail to remove a managed host from VOM DESCRIPTION: An exception occurs when calling a stored procedure function for fault tables. RESOLUTION: Modify the return of the stored procedure to proper table type. * INCIDENT NO:3547070 TRACKING ID:3526358 SYMPTOM: Live statistics for memory usage on Solaris MH shows incorrect free memory. DESCRIPTION: When a user views the live stats option for memory utilization, the free memory displayed does not agree with the data reported by vmstat command RESOLUTION: VOM stats gathering was incorrectly collecting free memory from vmstat command. This is fixed by providing the correct arguments to vmstat while executing it. * INCIDENT NO:3607102 TRACKING ID:3607101 SYMPTOM: Generated API certificate is no longer valid after 9 hrs. DESCRIPTION: The certificate generated for API login is valid only for 9 hrs. Once that timeframe is crossed, a new certificate needs to be generated. This is an overhead for certain customers. RESOLUTION: Added a new option 'nocertcheck' for API login which skips the certificate validity check. However the permissions of the user logging in will still be taken care of and the information will be shown accordingly. Sample invocation: /opt/VRTSsfmh/bin/xprtlc -l https://localhost:14161/vom/api/login -f certfile=@/tmp/cert.txt -d nocertcheck=1 * INCIDENT NO:3645575 TRACKING ID:3663528 SYMPTOM: xprtld daemon cannot be started after install on RHEL 7. DESCRIPTION: xprtld daemon cannot be started after install on RHEL 7, as it fails to load the AT libraries.
