Re: EVA VCS 3.100 Warning!!!
That was also our plan so we could do away with SecurePath and jus rely on VxVM DMP, PVLINKS or MPIO. However, HP came out with an anoucement forbidding customers to hold off on VCS 4.004 upgrades.
How's VCS 4.004 so far working for you? Are you using VxVM or just PVLINKS/AutoPath (aka SecurePath for Active/Active)? Do you also have Windows/vMware hosts in the mix?

Re: EVA VCS 3.100 Warning!!!
Sorry for the late answer.
VCS 4.004 is working good for US so far. One issue with one storage, a controller reboot, that was supposed to be caused by a old disk firmware (this looks like a joke!).
We don't use HP-UX, we use Windows and Tru64 Unix. Windows uses MPIO and tru64 multipath support is in the kernel.
Vmware hosts will be installed in a few weeks, right now, none.

Re: EVA VCS 3.100 Warning!!!
Thank you for bringing this to everyones attention.
We are going from 3.025 to 3.028 this weekend, for 2 reasons.
1) So we are under support.
2) Because we have had some issues with some database corruption & are going to 3.028 to see if this corrects the issue.
Why were you recommended to go to 3.100?
Andy

Re: EVA VCS 3.100 Warning!!!
We upgraded 2 EVAs 5k to v3.100. One EVA has loop switches other one has not. Customer has got performance issue after upgrade on both EVAs but it was getting better and after next 3 days performance looks nearly fine but:
- EVA without loop switches - now it is working fine.
- EVA with loop switches - it is working fine for some hours and after that it receives a lot of following warnings: "An outbound frame targeted to a physical disk drive has timed out. Corrective action code: 47" There are warnings one by one every 3 to 10 seconds. During this warnings performance of that EVA dropped down drastically. After next 5 - 10 minutes warnings stop to be appeared and EVA getting better for next some hours.
We found Customer Advisory c00869972 describing this problem dated on 16 Feb 2007 (It was not on web on 16 Feb 2007 because we checked this page before update!!!).
Now our local HP team decided to downgrade EVA with loop switches to version 3.028. The other one will keep version 3.100 (as described in this advisory).
I hope it will help a bit.
Grzes.

Re: EVA VCS 3.100 Warning!!!
The controller stays with a "soft diagnostic failure" error, and the only way to clear that condition is by rebooting "again" the controller.
I'm really disappointed with the EVA5000. I had too many troubles with this product.
