IMPORTANT:
Effective July 1, 2006, The European Union Restriction of Hazardous Substances (RoHS) Directive will
restrict the use of specific substances in newly manufactured electrical and electronic products. As a
result, some parts are now made with different, regulation-compliant materials. Except where otherwise
noted in this guide the parts look and function exactly like the existing non-regulation-compliant parts.
To ensure compliance with the directive when ordering a part, access the RoHS Information page on
Services Access Workbench at http://saw.cce.hp.com/km/saw/help.do?page=rohs, use the Search
feature at the top of the page to search for your product (for example, AG167A), then select Parts-Spares
on the left side of the screen. Check each parts product status in the product information field:
When product status is M (modified), replace only with another M part.
When product status is O (original), replace it with another O part. If the O part is unavailable
or out of stock, replace the part with the M part.
When product status is EMEA only, it has been modified but is only required to be supported as
modified in EMEA. In EMEA, treat it as M; in APJ and AME, treat it as O.

Component replacement
NOTE:
VLS nodes that require a memory upgrade typically have 4 x 1 GB DIMMs installed in slots 1A, 3A, 5B,
and 7B. These slot assignments are not required, but provide a slight performance boost.
Although they are not slot dependent, it is recommended you install the 2 x 2 GB DIMMs in slots 2C and
4C, and the 2 x 4 GB DIMMS in slots 6D and 8D.
After completing the memory upgrade, perform a Quick Restore. This may take approximately 20 to
30 minutes.
Processor
The VLS6100 node includes one processor. The VLS6500 node includes two processors. With two
processors installed, the node supports boot functions through the processor installed in processor
socket 1. However, if processor 1 fails, the system automatically boots from processor 2 and provides
a processor failure message.
The node uses embedded PPMs as DC-to-DC converters to provide the proper power to each processor.
CAUTION:
To prevent thermal instability and damage to the node, do not separate the processor from the heatsink.
The processor, heatsink, and retaining clip make up a single assembly.
CAUTION:
To prevent possible node malfunction and damage to the equipment, replace the processors with the
same make and type of processor.
To remove a processor:
1. Power off the system. See Powering off the system.
2. Extend the node from the rack. See Extending the node from the rack.
3. Remove the node access panel. See Removing the VLS node access panel.

System board
NOTE:
The VLS software ensures persistent WWNs on the FC ports, so that in the event of any hardware failure
and replacement (such as the system board or Fibre Channel host bus adapter), the VLS still appears
exactly the same to the external SAN.
The FC WWNs are based on the VLS serial number generated from the system boards MAC address.
The FC WWNs and VLS serial number are saved on the VLS hard drive once established.
HP StorageWorks
73
CAUTION:
If more than one VLS on a SAN is using the same serial number, neither VLS will work correctly.
This can occur if a system board is moved from one VLS to another VLS. If the second VLSs original
serial number is lost due to dual hard drive failure and the customer is unable to return the serial number
back to the original setting by reloading the saved virtual library configuration, the second VLS will
establish the same serial number as the first VLS.
1. Power off the system. See Powering off the system.
2. Extend or remove the node from the rack. See Extending the node from the rack or Removing the
node from the rack.
3. Remove the node access panel. See Removing the VLS node access panel.
4. Remove the PCI riser board assembly. See PCI riser board assembly.
CAUTION:
To prevent damage to the node or expansion boards, power off the system and remove all
AC power cords before removing or installing the PCI riser cage.
5. Remove the processor zone fan module. See Processor zone fan module.
6. Remove the power converter module. See Power converter module.

g. Enter the appropriate system board product ID number below and then press Enter.
NOTE:
Do not disclose these system board product ID numbers to the public.
h.
Press Esc and then F10 to exit the BIOS and save your changes.
CAUTION:
The product ID number in the system board BIOS is read by the VLS software at
boot. If the product ID does not match the system board product ID stored in the VLS
software (listed above in step g), the VLS software triggers a web alert reporting
a capacity license violation, which generates a capacity violation notification alert
indicating that 0 LUNs are licensed, and disables all Fibre Channel host ports and
read/write operations.
If this occurs, the Command View VLS Identity Tab window will indicate the VLS model
as a VLS 6000 and the total usable capacity as 0 GB until the VLS is rebooted and
the product ID in the system board BIOS is corrected.
CAUTION:
Do not dispose of batteries, battery packs, and accumulators with the general household waste. To
forward them to recycling or proper disposal, use the public collection system or return them to either
HP or an authorized service provider.
1. Power off the system. See Powering off the system.

Platform migration
VLS6100, VLS6500, VLS6800, and VLS6200 can be upgraded to larger-capacity platforms via an
upgrade service.
The user purchases the base SKU of the VLS model to which they are upgrading.
MSA20(s) from the original device are migrated to the new VLS.
Customers determine their capacity needs, and then select a supported product to upgrade to from their
existing system. See Table 2.
For example, to upgrade to 20TB of capacity from a VLS6510 with 10TB, the user purchases a base SKU
VLS6840. The base SKU VLS6840 includes 10TB, which brings the total capacity to the desired 20TB.

*HP supports migrating a maximum of six MSA20 enclosures from a VLS6800 to a VLS6600 device.
IMPORTANT:
Do NOT immediately attach and power on the existing MSA20s to the new VLS.
Read and understand the following procedure in its entirety before performing the upgrade.
NOTE:
As a result of the upgrade, the original node must be decommissioned. The new node will be assigned the
device FC WWPNs and virtual device serial numbers that were previously assigned to the original node.
In preparation for the upgrade, contact HP technical support to escalate to the world wide product service
manager, and get decommissioning instructions and new capacity licenses.
1. On the new VLS:
If the MSA20s were configured-to-order (the customer ordered the new VLS factory-racked), they must
be manually cleared of all data, and disconnected before the upgrade can succeed.
Perform steps a through g to clear the new MSA20s. Otherwise, proceed to step 2.
a. Open a Command View VLS session and log in as the administrator.
b. Select Storage Pools in the navigation tree.
c.
Click Rebuild.
f.
d. Decommission the original node, and do NOT reconnect the original node to the SAN.
4. Install and connect the original MSA20s to the new node, but do NOT attach any of the new
MSA20s. See Installing the disk array(s) into a rack in HP StorageWorks 6000series Virtual
Library System user guide.
5. Power on the new node. See Powering on VLS6000series systems.
HP StorageWorks
77
6. Configure the new nodes network using the old nodes host name, domain, IP address, subnet
mask, and gateway.
7. Select Restore Config to return the original nodes virtual library configuration and serial number.
8. Reinstall any upgrade licenses that were on the original node. See HP StorageWorks 6000series
Virtual Library System user guide for the procedure. These do not need to be regenerated because the
new node will use the same serial number as the original node after the Restore Config is performed.
9. Generate and transfer new upgrade license keys to replace capacity licenses for the MSA20 array(s)
that comprised the base SKU of the original VLS. For example, a base VLS6100 SKU consists of one
MSA20 array. Therefore, you need one new capacity license for that array enclosure. See Table 3.
Table 3 New upgrade license keys needed by platform

10. Install the new upgrade licenses. See HP StorageWorks 6000series Virtual Library System user
guide for the procedure.
11. Power off the new node. See Powering off the system.
12. Install and connect the new blank MSA20s that came with the new node.
13. Power on the new node.
This process ensures that the existing configuration and virtual cartridges, and the additional capacity
that came with the new node, are successfully transferred to the new node.
NOTE:
The node contains one of several possible hard drives. The replacement hard drive must be the same
capacity as the original hard drive; refer to the label on the front of the original hard drive for the correct
supported replacement capacity and part number.

NOTE:
The server supports variable fan speeds. The fans operate at minimum speed until a temperature change
requires a fan speed increase to cool the server.
The server shuts down in the following scenarios:
At POST:
The BIOS suspends the server for 5 minutes if it detects a cautionary temperature level. If the
cautionary temperature level is still detected after 5 minutes, the BIOS performs an orderly
shutdown and enters Standby mode.
The BIOS performs an orderly shutdown if two or more fans have failed.
The server performs an immediate shutdown if it detects a critical temperature level.
HP StorageWorks
121
IMPORTANT:
An immediate shutdown is a hardware-controlled function and it overrides any firmware or software
actions.
In the operating system:
The Health Driver performs an orderly shutdown if it detects a cautionary temperature level.
If the server detects a critical temperature level before the orderly shutdown occurs, the
server performs an immediate shutdown. Additionally, the Health Driver performs an orderly
shutdown if more than one fan is failed or removed.
When Thermal Shutdown is disabled in RBSU, the server performs an immediate shutdown if it

System board
NOTE:
The VLS software ensures persistent WWNs on the FC ports, so that in the event of any hardware failure
and replacement (such as the system board or Fibre Channel host bus adapter), the VLS still appears
exactly the same to the external SAN.
The FC WWNs are based on the VLS serial number generated from the system boards MAC address.
The FC WWNs and VLS serial number are saved on the VLS hard drive once established.
CAUTION:
If more than one VLS on a SAN is using the same serial number, neither VLS will work correctly.
This can occur if a system board is moved from one VLS to another VLS. If the second VLSs original
serial number is lost due to dual hard drive failure and the customer is unable to return the serial number
back to the original setting by reloading the saved virtual library configuration, the second VLS will
establish the same serial number as the first VLS.
1. Power off the system. See Powering off the system.
2. Remove the two power supplies. See Power supply.
NOTE:
Label the individual hard drives before pulling them out, as it is important that you re-install
them in the same bays from which they were removed.

NOTE:
The serial number on the label on the back of the node must be entered in the system board BIOS as
described in the steps below after replacing the system board.
To enter the serial number on the label on the back of the node in the system board BIOS:
1. Connect a monitor to the video connector. See Rear panel components.
2. Connect a keyboard to the keyboard connector. See Rear panel components.
3. Power on the node. See Powering on VLS6000series systems.
4. When prompted during bootup, press F9 to launch the ROM Based Setup Utility.
5. Use the down arrow key to highlight Advanced Options and then press Enter.
6. Use the arrow keys to highlight Serial Number and then press Enter.
7. Enter the serial number and then press Enter.
8. Press Esc and then F10 to exit the BIOS and save your changes.
CAUTION:
The serial number in the system board BIOS is read by the VLS software at boot. If the
serial number does not match the serial number stored in the VLS software for the system
board, which is the serial number on the node label, the VLS software triggers a web alert
reporting a capacity license violation. This generates a capacity violation notification
alert, indicating that 0 LUNs are licensed, and disables all Fibre Channel host ports and
read/write operations.
If this occurs, the Command View VLS Identity Tab window will indicate the VLS model as a
VLS 6000 and the total usable capacity as 0 GB until the VLS is rebooted and the serial
number in the system board BIOS is corrected.

5 Service login
This chapter describes how to obtain root access to the VLS operating system through a secure shell
(network) or serial user interface (console) session. It also provides the root access CLI command syntax.
Obtaining root access allows you to:
Use UNIX commands, such as ls, ls l, cd, pwd, rm, exit, uptime, top, more, cat, vi,
view, tail, grep and so on, to troubleshoot and perform updates on the VLS
Use the VLS as an FTP client (but not as an FTP server for security reasons) to copy VLS files to
remote systems with FTP servers and get files from remote systems with FTP servers (see FTP
commands)
Change the trace log file logging level (see Trace logging level)
Create a support ticket from root (see Support ticket)
Change the CLI command output formats (see CLI output formats)
Perform CLI commands in batch mode (see Batch mode CLI)
For descriptions of the VLS user interfaces, their requirements, and the VLS CLI command set, see the HP
StorageWorks 6000 Virtual Library System user guide.
CAUTION:
Do not change VLS software configurations. System failure may result. Only the standard VLS software
configurations have been tested and are supported.
NOTE:
The Library & Tape Tools utility does not support the VLS at this time. Any L&TT diagnostics commands
will receive dummy data from the VLS.
HP StorageWorks

Description
-i <filename>
Filename for an input command file. The CLI reads in this file and executes
its commands line by line. If there are multiple -l arguments, the CLI will
process the files from left to right. If any of the files contain a CLI exit
command, the CLI session will terminate.
-c <cmdline>

Service login
A Service commands
This appendix describes the FTP commands to transfer files to and from the VLS, and commands to
change the VLS trace logging level and generate a VLS support ticket from root. It also describes the CLI
output format commands and CLI batch mode commands that can be ran from root. For more information
about the VLS CLI command set, see the HP StorageWorks 6000series Virtual Library System user guide.
FTP commands
FTP commands can be used to copy files from the VLS to a remote system with an FTP server running,
and also to copy files on a remote system with an FTP server running to the VLS, such as to copy a
firmware update file to the VLS.
To start an FTP session and transfer files:
1. Use the cd command to go to the directory on the VLS that the file you want to send is located, or
the directory where you want to store the file that you are receiving.
This step is optional, but makes it easier to perform the file transfer.
2. Enter the following to start an FTP session:
ftp <ip address or system name of system to connect to>
For example: ftp 10.0.0.99 or vlsexamp.xyz.com
3. At the Name (xxxxx:root): prompt, enter <user name>.
xxxx is the name of the system you are ftping.
4. At the Password: prompt, enter <password>.
5. At the ftp> prompt, enter bin.
6. Use the cd command to go to the directory on the remote system where the file you want to copy
is located or where you want to copy a file.
7. If you did not perform step 1, use the lcd command to go to the directory on the VLS that the file you
want to send is located, or the directory where you want to store the file that you are receiving.
8. (Optional) To list the current directory on the remote system, enter ls.
9. To get a file from the remote system, enter:
get <name of file to get>
10. To copy a file from the VLS to the remote system, enter:
put <name of file to copy>
11. To exit the FTP session, enter:
bye
HP StorageWorks
231
Level 2Includes everything from level 1 plus logs all SCSI commands except for read/write
commands that do not have any errors.
To change the trace logging level, enter:
/S2100/DS/set_debug <subsystem> <debug level>
The <subsystem> can be all (to change all subsystems), fs, iom, vdisk, pdsk, trc, cfg, fc, scsi,
msg, cart, qdsk, compress, vtape, jthr, vlib, or gdsk.
The <debug level> can be 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, or 9.
NOTE:
Change the logging level for all subsystems back to level 1 once service is completed.
Support ticket
Normally, you would create a support ticket using Command View VLS. However, you also have the
option of creating a support ticket from root.
To create a support ticket from root, enter:
/S2100/s2xmgr_java/bin/create_support_ticket.sh <output file>.zip
The <output file> can include a directory name, such as /tmp/support_ticket.zip
After the support ticket zip file is created, FTP it to a system where it can be forwarded to HP support.
Description
-x <filename>
-o <filename>
-oa <filename>
Generate the command results in report format and append it to the file
specified if it exists.
-e <filename>
Write any errors and traces to the specified file. If the file exists, the results
are appended.
-cc <filename>
Copy the command lines to this file. This file may then be used with the
-iargument. Run and help commands are not copied. Can be used to
create an input script.
-noprompt
Turns off the display prompt for file input. It is used with scripts that redirect
command input and output.
All commands except the exit command can have the -x <filename> argument. This argument
causes the command result to be written both to the specified file as well as displayed on the screen.
232
Service commands
XML format
The CLI provides an optional -x <filename> argument , that when specified, outputs the command
results in XML format to the specified file. The XML format is as follows:
<CLIXML>
<CLICMD>
<COMMAND NAME=command line entered>
results of command
</CLICMD>
</CLIXML>
If the command generated an error, the error message with be inside an <ERROR> tag.

Glossary
This glossary defines terms used in this guide or related to this product and is not a comprehensive
glossary of computer terms.
appliance
automigration
Data intended for tape storage is written to virtual tape and after the backups are
complete written to physical tape in the background. One virtual tape emulates
one physical tape to the host system. Data is held on the virtual tape, which
greatly improves restore times over the slow loading process of a robotic library.
The VLS will be able to perform automigration in the future.
bandwidth
Also known as data transfer rate. The amount of data that can be carried from
one point to another in a given time period.
A real communications path usually consists of a succession of links, each with
its own bandwidth. If one of these is much slower than the rest, it is said to
be a bandwidth bottleneck.
cartridge
chassis
command line
interface (CLI)
data backup
The activity of copying files or databases so that they will be preserved in case
of equipment failure or other catastrophe. The retrieval of files you backed up is
called restoring files.
See also data restore.
data compression
A software or hardware process that shrinks data files so that they occupy less
storage space, and can be transmitted faster and easier. Data is encoded so it
takes up less storage space and less bandwidth for transmission.
See also bandwidth.
data migration
The process of moving data from one storage device to another, such as
migrating data from virtual media to physical media.
data restore
data retention
period
disk array
Two or more hard drives combined as a single logical unit for increased
capacity, speed, and/or fault-tolerant operation. Disk arrays are logically
grouped into a storage pool.
See also storage pool.
HP StorageWorks
241
disk mirroring
disk striping
The process of dividing a body of data into blocks and spreading the data
blocks across several partitions on several disks.
See also RAID.
disk-to-disk
backup
echo copy
extent
The minimum amount of disk space allocated for writing by the VLS dynamic
disk filesystem. A smaller extent reduces wasted disk space, but decreases
restore performance. The VLS extent size is 32MB.
See also data restore.
failover protection
file
Firesafe
The holding area for virtual media that is not assigned to a virtual library. Data
cannot be restored from virtual media located in the Firesafe until the media is
moved into a library.
hot plug
The ability to add and remove devices to an appliance while the appliance is
running and have the operating system automatically recognize the change.
infrastructure
initiator
Media (host) server that runs the backup/restore application that passes
commands and data between the network and the VLS.
inputs/outputs per
second
242
library
A storage device that handles multiple units of media and provides one or
more drives for reading and writing them, such as a physical tape library and
virtual tape library. Software emulation of a physical tape library is called
a virtual tape library.
See also virtual tape library.
logical unit
number (LUN)
An address used in the SCSI protocol to access a device within a target. In the
case of the VLS, a LUN is assigned to each virtual library and tape drive.
LUN mapping
LUN masking
master server
A computer that provides administration and control for backup and restore
operations for all clients and servers in a master and media server cluster.
The average time until a component failure can be expected to cause data loss.
This includes the consideration that RAID redundancy can protect against data
loss from the failure of a single component.
media access
control (MAC)
address
A low-level unique hardware identifier for every Ethernet port in the world that
is physically stored inside a network card or similar network interface. MAC
addresses are assigned by the IEEE.
media server
node
A server that contains the hardware and software required to run a virtual
library system. This refers to a hardware assembly containing a power supply,
cooling fans, motherboard, expansion boards, and internal hard drives to
support the VLS system.
oversubscription
A condition that exists when more virtual media storage is configured on a VLS
than there is physical storage available.
Because the VLS dynamically allocates storage space as user data is written,
the VLS allows you to allocate more storage for virtual media than is physically
available.
RAID
Consists of at least two drives that uses mirroring (100% duplication of the
storage of data). There is no striping. Read performance is improved since
either disk can be read at the same time. Write performance is the same as
for single disk storage.
Provides data striping at the byte level and also stripe error correction
information. RAID 5 configurations can tolerate one drive failure. Even with a
failed drive, the data in a RAID 5 volume can still be accessed normally.
Provides data striping at the byte level and also stripe error correction
information. RAID 6 configurations can tolerate two drive failures. Even with
two failed drives, the data in a RAID 6 volume can still be accessed normally.
RAID 6 read performance is similar to RAID 5, since all drives can service read
operations, but the write performance is lower than that of RAID 5 because the
parity data must be updated on multiple drives.
redundancy
In a redundant system, if you lose part of the system, it can continue to operate.
For example, if you have two power supplies with one that takes over if the other
one dies, thats redundancy.
HP StorageWorks
243
secure sockets
layer (SSL)
certificate
The evolution of the ATA (IDE) interface that changes the physical architecture
from parallel to serial and from primary-secondary (master-slave) to
point-to-point. Unlike parallel ATA interfaces that connect two drives; one
configured as primary (master), the other as secondary (slave), each SATA
drive is connected to its own interface.
simple network
management
protocol (SNMP)
A widely used network monitoring and control protocol. Data is passed from
SNMP agents, which are hardware and/or software processes reporting activity
in each network device (hub, router, bridge, etc.) to the workstation console
used to oversee the network. The agents return information contained in a MIB
(Management Information Base), which is a data structure that defines what is
obtainable from the device and what can be controlled (turned off, on, etc.).
small computer
systems interface
(SCSI)
smart copy
A software feature within the automigration process that is under the control of
the backup application and managed via the VLS devices SMI-S interface.
This requires the backup application to support the HP smart copy interface.
(Smart copy is similar to snapshot.)
SMI-S
Allows control of the virtual tape library by a connected destination library for
the purpose of implementing automigration. SMI-S support allows applications
attached to the VLS to detect the virtual library configuration and to allow some
users to change the state of the VLS.
storage area
network (SAN)
storage pool
Multiple disk arrays logically grouped together from which the dynamic
disk filesystem allocates storage. The disk arrays in a VLS are automatically
configured into one storage array.
tape drive
(1) A device that reads data from and writes data onto tape.
(2) A software emulation of a tape drive is called a virtual tape drive.
virtual tape
Also known as a piece of virtual media or a VLS cartridge. A disk drive buffer
that emulates one physical tape to the host system and appears to the host
backup application as a physical tape. The same application used to back up
to tape is used, but the data is stored on disk.
Data can be written to and read from the virtual tape, and the virtual tape can
be migrated to physical tape.
244
A disk drive buffer containing virtual tape and virtual tape drives.
See also virtual tape drive.
