Error description
Problem Description: Agile disks are not shown by the UNIX OS Agent on HP-UX 11.31. The UNIX OS Agent only lists the disks that follow the Legacy DSF naming convention. Disks using the Persistent DSF naming convention that were introduced in HP-UX 11.31 are not displayed. The environment variable MAX_NUMBER_OF_DISKS_HPUX allows the user to specify the maximum number of disks to monitor on the machine. The environment variable EXCLUDE_LEGACY_DISKS set to true (EXCLUDE_LEGACY_DISKS=TRUE) can be used to exclude disks that follow the Legacy naming convention. Detailed Recreation Procedure: Run the UNIX OS Agent on a machine that has some Agile disks. Check that the "Disk Performance" view on the TEP does not show Agile disks. Related Files and Output: KBB_RAS1=ERROR (UNIT:kuxdstat ALL) The ./pstat_getdisk_test output showed all "Disk status" is equal to 0 (inactive) Disk hardware path = 4/0/5/1/0/4/0.98.59.19.0.0.0 Disk status = 0 Disk major identifier = 31 Disk minor identifier = 1048576 Additional Keywords: MR0721094842 pstat_getdisk
