50About Veritas Storage Foundation and High Availability SolutionsKnown issuesContinuous trespass loop when a CLARiiON LUN is mapped toa different host than its snapshot (2761567)If a CLARiiON LUN is mapped to a different host than its snapshot, a trespass onone of them could cause a trespass on the other. This behavior could result in aloop for these LUNs, as DMP tries to fail back the LUNs if the primary paths areavailable.Workaround:To avoid this issue, turn off the dmp_monitor_ownership tunable:# vxdmpadm settune dmp_monitor_ownership=offAfter excluding devices managed by PowerPath from VxVM,the devices still show as DMP devices (2494632)The issue happens after EMC PowerPath is installed and all devices are underPowerPath control. If you want to maintain the devices under PowerPath control,you use the following command to exclude the device that is managed byPowerPath from VxVM:# vxdmpadm exclude dmpnodename=PowerPath_device _nameAfter system reboot, the PowerPath device still shows as a DMP device, althoughthe device is managed by EMC PowerPath.Workaround:This issue is seen only during the first bootup discovery after reboot. To resolvethe issue, manually trigger DMP device discovery:# vxdisk scandisksThe system may hang with Solaris 11 SRU1 (2876211)When running Solaris 11 SRU1, the system may hang due to an Oracle bug. TheOracle Bug ID is 7105131 deadman panic.Workaround: SRU1 for Solaris 11 should be updated to SRU2a. The bug is fixedin SRU2a: Oracle Solaris 11 Support Repository Updates (SRU) Index (Doc ID1372094.1)System panics because dmp_signal_event() called psignal()with incorrect vxesd proc pointer (3041167)On Solaris 11 SPARC SRU1, system panics after executing the vxrecover operationon the master node.
