HP NetStorage 6000 Release Note page 2

General
Administrative GUI Access: Access the administrative GUI pages directly through the HP NetStorage
6000 address (either IP or name) rather than attempting to access through an IIS server that is redirecting to
the HP NetStorage 6000. Occasionally this hangs the device and it is necessary to reboot to access it
again.
Renaming extended File Volumes: The HP NetStorage 6000 does not allow extended File Volumes
(volumes that have been extended across two partitions) to be renamed.
Context-sensitive help: The HP TopTools help button is not context-sensitive to the HP NetStorage 6000
page you are viewing. Press the ? button in the upper right corner of the page to view context-sensitive help.
IP address: If DHCP is enabled, but fails, the HP NetStorage 6000 may revert back to a previously
assigned static IP address. This may lead to some confusion as the NetStorage web interface indicates that
DHCP is enabled (which it actually still is), even though it failed and the IP address was not DHCP
generated.
Front panel Ready message: The front panel LCD displays Ready prior to the HP NetStorage 6000
actually being accessible. You should wait until the LCD displays the System Name and CPU Load before
trying to access files.
Backup - single file restore: When doing a single file restore the name of the file being restored is NOT
case sensitive. As an NFS client, when you restore a file that contains the same characters, you will get a
restore of all the files. For example, a file named GoodDoc, GOODDOC, or gooddoc will all be restored as a
single file restore operation.
Spanned tapes in backup: When a single file spans two tapes during a backup operation it is possible that
the ACL information for this file may be corrupted. The data integrity of the file is however, never in
jeopardy. To restore the ACL an administrator or root can take ownership of the file and set the appropriate
permissions.
NIC port order: The PCI bus is scanned from right to left (as viewed from the front of the HP NetStorage
6000). NIC cards would, therefore, be expected to be discovered in the same order. However, single port
NICs are always discovered before dual port NIC cards and may, therefore, cause confusion regarding the
mapping of physical ports to port numbers. In general, scanning from right to left (as viewed from the front of
the HP NetStorage 6000), the first single port NIC is Port 1. For dual port NICs, the bottom port is numbered
logically lower than the upper port.
