•
The delete lun command is supported, but only the last logical drive of an array can be
deleted. VDS does not recognize the concept of arrays, so it is not readily apparent which
LUN can be deleted.
•
The hardware provider does not allow simultaneous extension of size with a list of disks. For
example the following command is invalid: extend lun drives=5,6 size=111mb. Use
only one option at a time. Also, the hardware provider will not automatically extend a LUN to its
maximum size when specifying a drive list.
•
The only Automagic set parameters supported are FTL, MXD, and STS. When using the
STS parameter, you must select one of the available stripe sizes. To list stripe sizes, use the
detail subsytem command.
•
The maintenance command supports only blinking. Other maintenance options are not
supported, such as SPINUP, SPINDOWN, BEEP, and PING.
•
The HP MSA FC VDS hardware provider supports HP MPIO Full-Featured DSM for MSA
Active-Active configurations. For MSA Active-Passive configurations, the HP MSA FC VDS
hardware provider supports only HP MPIO Basic DSM, and you must use MPIO management
software to manage MPIO.
