What's New
| ▪ | Different types of PATROL events can now be triggered |
| ▪ | Event messages have been improved to provide more meaningful information. |
| • | In order to optimize the monitoring on large environment, users can now customize the discovery and the collect processes timeouts by using two new configuration variables: discoveryOperationTimeout and collectOperationTimeout. |
Changes and Improvements
| • | The System Output Window (SOW) messages generated by IBM DS6000, DS8000 Series KM for PATROL are now saved in the SEN_I68_debug_km_*.log debug file when the debug mode is activated. |
| • | Reinitializing the KM now also removes all the oldInstances.dat files. |
| • | The password algorithm encryption is now handled by the PATROL Agent. |
| • | The iQN (iSCSI Qualified Name) is now handled for host mappings. When available, IQNs are displayed in the Hosts parameter of the SEN_I68_VOLUME application class. |
| • | Specific PATROL Events triggered upon failures now also specify the alert origin (ApplicationClassName.ObjectID.ParameterName). |
Fixed Issues
| • | Java Settings - User Selection: the username entered in the "Java Settings" dialog box was not properly saved in the configuration. |
| • | IBM DS6000, DS8000 Series KM for PATROL could not be loaded when using a version of the PATROL Agent lower than v.9.5. This issue is now fixed. |
| • | IBM DS6000, DS8000 Series KM for PATROL has been modified to properly handle the discovery and the collect processes with java 1.8. |
| • | The conversion method used to calculate units for some duration-based parameters has been improved to report accurately on the actual collected data. |
| • | To avoid unnecessary duplicates, the Fiber Ports are no longer reported by the Hosts parameter of the SEN_I68_VOLUME application class, but are still listed in the Paths parameter. |
