Connector for IBM AIX - HBA

Should you install this patch?

Install this patch if you have tape drives attached to your HBA or are using multipathing.

What does it fix?

The connector will now run two separate tests, one to detect tape drives and another to detect active hard drive paths, to determine if a port is active.

How to install the patch?

  1. Copy the following file to %RSM_HOME%\RSMxx\SEN_HW\hdf_2xxx\ on each RSM:
    • MS_HW_IBMAIXHBA.hdf
  2. No further actions are required. The new component monitoring will be added at the next discovery.
