If you disconnect the main cable you must then restart storview on the enclosure having first shut down the 2 storview services. If this port is disabled (through the system OS) or disconnected, Storview will not be able to start. The error message “Could not connect to service on 127.0.0.1, please ensure that the service is running and try it again" will be displayed. Note: if you disable the port through Storview, then Storview will be closed. 2) SSR212MC2R only - RAID card firmware can occasionally override user settings for drive LEDs. If you use storview to turn drive ident lights on and remove/replace a drive, RAID card can override your ident lights and may turn them off. 3) RAID card firmware can add warnings to the windows/linux event logs about temperature differentials. These messages are erroneous and can be ignored safely. 4) Removing one fan causes all fans to go to 100%. This is a design requirement for failure cases and is correct behaviour. 5) Enclosure firmware upgrade is not supported if an external storage expansion unit is connected to the Intel SRCSAS144e RAID card. 6) Inserting a second (redundant) PSU with no live AC attached has the PSU reported as OK rather than AC Power fault. 7) Direct access to enclosure information via other methods such as IPMI is not supported and may cause system failure. Only SES is supported. 8) Virtual disk may go offline and all the disks of the enclosure may go unconfig-bad after the upgarde of RAID card firmware if I/O is present. 9) Flashing of all disk drive ident LEDs are turned off if a disk is removed. ============================= Fixes/Updates in this version ============================= Fixed: Chassis ident light is too dim to see Fixed: Raw view decode misses of new vendor unique T10 in page 1 SES Fixed: StorView displays incorerctly for Power Supplies when one is removed. Fixed: raw view p2 does not decode PSu at all or other elements fully Fixed: Storview settings should not show RAID function/option Fixed: A Java Swing exception occurred while pulling drives from an enclosure. Fixed: Missing drives were shown as present when drives were pulled out of the enclosure. The enclosure was also shown as having an erroneous fault. Fixed: login problems after changing the servername in Rhel4 Fixed: System setttings shows raid created on the controller SRCSAS144E. System settings must show only system drives and not the VD on the raid controller. *Third-party trademarks are the property of their respective owners.
