Known problems

·         If an environment is created in which HDLM is installed on the boot disk, the server is started, and a module name contains a hyphen (-), even if the module is successfully loaded, a message indicating that the module failed to load (KAPL12324-E) might be output to the console and the /etc/opt/DynamicLinkManager/hdlmboot.log file.

After the server has started, execute the lsmod command. If the hyphens in module names are changed and displayed as underscores (_), then there are no problems, and the action for the KAPL12324-E message in the Hitachi Command Suite Dynamic Link Manager (for Linux®) User Guide does not need to be taken.

Message output example (example of an error occurring for dm-region-hash)

# vi /etc/opt/DynamicLinkManager/hdlmboot.log

   :

KAPL12323-I The insertion of the module was started. Module name = dm-log

KAPL12323-I The insertion of the module was started. Module name = dm-region-hash

KAPL12324-E The module could not be inserted. Module name = dm-region-hash

KAPL12323-I The insertion of the module was started. Module name = dm-mirror

   :

  #

Example of using lsmod to confirm that there are no problems (example of confirming the information displayed for dm_region_hash)

# lsmod

   :

dm_mirror              14003  0

dm_region_hash         12200  1 dm_mirror

dm_log                 10088  2 dm_mirror,dm_region_hash

   :

·         Operation when all paths are disconnected during intermittent error monitoring:

When I/O operations are performed continuously for an LU whose paths are all Offline(E), Online(E), or Offline(C) (because, for example, all paths have been disconnected), the number of times that an error occurs (the IEP value when dlnkmgr view -path -iem is executed) during intermittent error monitoring might increase even though the auto failback function did not recover all paths. In such a case, even though an intermittent error did not occur, HDLM often assumes an intermittent error, and excludes paths from the auto failback function. In such a case, after recovery from the failure, to change the status of a path excluded from auto failback to online, manually change the status to online.

·         Although the following messages are output when executing the "rpm -V HDLM" command, HDLM operations are not affected.

While installation and uninstallation of HDLM are performed, do not interrupt the processing (for example, do not press the Ctrl+C keys).

If the operation is performed with the following procedure, the status is returned to what it was before the refresh operation was executed. As a result, make sure to re-execute the refresh command after restarting the host and recovering from a path failure.

a)       The dlnkmgr command is used to perform a refresh.

b)      Path errors occur for some or all of the paths, and a path status becomes Offline(E).

c)       The host is restarted before a path failure is recovered.

The partition numbers that can be used for HDLM management targets are from 1 to 15. A partition number of 16 or higher can be assigned in UEFI, but a SCSI device with a partition number of 16 or higher cannot be used for an HDLM management target.

If you want to execute either of the following utilities in an environment where the language is Japanese or a language other than English, change the language to English (LANG=C), and then execute the utility:

o    dlmsetopt utility

o    dlmmkinitrd utility

Example for the execution:

a)       Check the current setting, and then back up LANG information.
# echo $LANG
zh_CN.gbk
#
# bk_LANG=$LANG
# echo $bk_LANG
zh_CN.gbk
#

b)      Change the setting of LANG to C (English).
# export LANG=C
#

c)       Execute the dlmsetopt utility.
# /opt/DynamicLinkManager/bin/dlmsetopt -r -1
KAPL12554-I The utility for setting HDLM driver option has started.
KAPL12555-I The utility for setting HDLM driver option completed normally.
KAPL12558-I Please restart the computer so that the option settings take effect.
#

d)      According to the result of (a), return the setting of LANG to the original setting.
# export LANG=$bk_LANG
#
# echo $LANG

Alive               8.7.4-00 yyyy/mm/dd hh:mm:ss

KAPL01001-I  The HDLM command ended successfully. (operation name = view, end time = yyyy/mm/dd hh:mm:ss)

When all of the following conditions are met, if you execute the shutdown command with specifying the -F option which always executes fsck at reboot, a host boot fails with an error in the fsck command which is executed at the OS boot.

If your environment meets the conditions, do not specify the -F option for the shutdown command. If you do execute the shutdown command with the -F option specified, when the setup screen for the boot loader startup is displayed, select the startup from the SCSI device and boot the host. After that, reboot the host without specifying the -F option.

Conditions

Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5, Oracle Enterprise Linux 5, or Oracle Unbreakable Enterprise Kernel 5 is used.

An HDLM device is used as a boot disk.

A value other than 0 is set for the sixth field (fs_passno) in the /etc/fstab file.

UTC is not used for the system clock on the host.

If you restart the host, the route information changes and an increased number of offline (E) paths per LU might be displayed. If the number of online paths per LU is the same as before the host was restarted, remove unnecessary offline (E) paths by using dlmcfgmgr -u {HDLM device}.

·         In Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6, Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7, Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8, Oracle Unbreakable Enterprise Kernel 5, Oracle Unbreakable Enterprise Kernel 6, Oracle Linux 7, Oracle Linux 8, Oracle Unbreakable Enterprise Kernel 7, SUSE LINUX Enterprise Server 11, SUSE LINUX Enterprise Server 12 and SUSE LINUX Enterprise Server 15:

o    If you execute the dlmcfgmgr utility (dlmcfgmgr -u), path information is deleted when a path failure occurs. The path information is deleted even if a hyphen (-) is not displayed for an SCSI device name in the device row displayed as a result of executing the dlmcfgmgr utility or the HDLM command view operation (specifying -lu or -drv).

o    If path information is deleted as described above, execute dlmcfgmgr -r after recovering the failed path, make sure the recovered path is discovered by HDLM, and then confirm that the path status has become online.

·         HDLM for Linux does not support cluster software in a HAM environment.

o    In the case of displaying the LU information, the HAM information is not output by specifying the "all" parameter-value for the HDLM command. Specify the "ha" and "hastat" parameter-value instead of it.

o    An online operation is performed on an owner path, a non-owner path's status may change to Offline(E). After performing an online operation on an owner path, use the HDLM command to make sure that the non-owner path's status is Online. If the non-owner path's status is Offline(E), change the status of HAM pairs to PAIR, and then perform an online operation on the Offline(E) path again.

o    When you set up a HAM pair to be managed by HDLM, make sure that the host recognizes paths to the MCU (Primary VOL) and RCU (Secondary VOL) after the HAM pair is created.

o    Execute the dlnkmgr view -lu -item hastat operation. If ha is not displayed in the HaStat column, then the corresponding LU is not recognized as being in a HAM configuration.

o    If the host recognizes the paths to the MCU and RCU before the HAM pair is created, restart the host after the HAM pair is created.

o    If you release a HAM pair to recover the system after a HAM volume failure, do not restart a host that is connected to the MCU and RCU while the HAM pair is released. If you need to restart the host while the HAM pair is released, disconnect all paths to the MCU and RCU, restart the host, re-create the HAM pair, and then reconnect the paths.

o    If you restart a host that is connected to the MCU and RCU while the HAM pair is released, the RCU volume will be recognized as a volume other than an MCU volume. If this occurs, restart the host after the HAM pair is re-created.

o    Execute the dlnkmgr view -lu -item hastat operation, and then confirm that ha is displayed in the HaStat column.

o    While the path health check provided by HDLM is enabled (on), if a HAM pair is released, the status of the paths (non-owner paths) connected to the RCU might become Offline(E) or Online(E). After creating (recovering) a HAM pair, return the status of the paths to Online by using the HDLM command online operation.

·         Do not use an XFS file system or a btrfs file system for a system partition in any of the following environments:

o    Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.6 (EM64T/AMD64)

o    Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.2 (EM64T/AMD64)

o    Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.4 (EM64T/AMD64)

o    Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.5 (EM64T/AMD64)

o    Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.6 (EM64T/AMD64)

o    Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.7 (EM64T/AMD64)

o    Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.8 (EM64T/AMD64)

o    Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.9 (EM64T/AMD64)

o    Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.10 (EM64T/AMD64)

o    Oracle Unbreakable Enterprise Kernel 6.5 (EM64T/AMD64)

o    Oracle Unbreakable Enterprise Kernel 6.6 (EM64T/AMD64)

o    Oracle Unbreakable Enterprise Kernel 6.7 (EM64T/AMD64)

o    Oracle Unbreakable Enterprise Kernel 6.8 (EM64T/AMD64)

o    Oracle Unbreakable Enterprise Kernel 6.9 (EM64T/AMD64)

o    Oracle Unbreakable Enterprise Kernel 6.10 (EM64T/AMD64)

o    SUSE LINUX Enterprise Server 11 SP4 (EM64T/AMD64)

·         If you are using SLES 11 SP4 (IA32), do not specify the inode64 option when mounting an XFS file system.

·         If you are using btrfs file systems in SLES 11 SP4 (IA32), do not create more than 232 files in a single file system.

·         If the KAPL12451-E error message is output using HDLM 8.5.4-00 or later, perform the following steps:

1)      Check whether write_cache_state=0 is specified in the /etc/lvm/lvm.conf file. If write_cache_state=0 is not specified, specify it.

2)      Execute /sbin/vgscan.

3)      Check whether the following files exist. If either or both of the files exist, delete them.

/etc/lvm/.cache

/etc/lvm/cache/.cache

4)      In an environment where a logical volume (LVM2) on an HDLM device is used as the boot disk, re-create the initial RAM disk image file for HDLM by performing step 9 of the procedure in Settings for a multipath boot disk environment on page 3-148.

·         If there are 1025 or more paths, including those with a status other than Online, execution of the dlmchname utility might take some time to finish.

·         In Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7, Oracle Linux 7, Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8, Oracle Linux 8, Oracle Unbreakable Enterprise Kernel 7, SUSE LINUX Enterprise Server 12, or SUSE LINUX Enterprise Server 15, if the HDLM manager does not start after an attempt to install(*1) or remove HDLM for Linux fails and the KAPL09013-E message is output, perform one of the following procedures:

a) Restart the host.

b) Run the following command to start the HDLM manager:

# /opt/DynamicLinkManager/bin/dlmmanager start

(*1) The type of installation can be an upgrade installation or a re-installation of HDLM for Linux (but not a new installation).

-         Execute the following command to check the version of the driver:
# cat /sys/class/scsi_host/hostn/driver_version
n: the instance number of the HBA port

-         Check the output result to see whether the characters "fo" are added to the version notation.
When the failover function is enabled:
8.01.07-k1-fo
When the failover function is disabled:
8.01.07-k1

2.     The drivers mentioned in the page of " Hitachi Vantara - HBA Approved Software" in the QLogic website are supported. Get the drivers from the following URL:
http://support.qlogic.com/support/oem_detail_hds.asp?oemid=84&classid=237
The above-mentioned URL may be changed without notice. When the URL is changed, look for the page of " Hitachi Vantara - HBA Approved Software" in the QLogic website.

3.     Use the driver bundled with the kernel.

4.     Using an HDLM device as the boot disk is supported.

5.     HDLM also supports the environments in which 32-bit kernel packages are installed on a system using an AMD Opteron processor.

6.     Since the failover function is Enable by default, change it to Disable. For changing the setting of the failover function to Disable, set the following in /etc/modprobe.conf file.
Example: When the driver version is 8.01.01.
options qla2xxx ql2xfailover=0
Refer to the document of the HBA attachment for details of the setting change of the failover function.

7.     EM64T indicates the environments in which 64-bit kernel packages are installed on a system using an Intel EM64T processor.

8.     AMD64 indicates the environments in which 64-bit kernel packages are installed on a system using an AMD Opteron processor.

9.     Supported by Kernel 2.6.32.24-0.2.1 or later.

1.     Do not use the HBA driver's failover function.
Check the setting for the failover function by performing the following procedure:

-         For Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.3 Advanced Platform, Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.3, Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.4 Advanced Platform, Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.4, Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.5 Advanced Platform, Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.5, Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.7 Advanced Platform, Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.7, Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6, Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.3, and SUSE LINUX Enterprise Server 11:

-         Execute the following command to check the version of the driver:
# cat /sys/class/scsi_host/hostn/driver_version
n: the instance number of the HBA port

-         Check the output result to see whether the characters "fo" are added to the version notation.
When the failover function is enabled:
8.01.07-k1-fo
When the failover function is disabled:
8.01.07-k1
