Clone VV export
Dear Community

Re: Clone VV export
Hello @S_AMB,
Haven't faced such issue. But looks like the here the same WWN but different LUN id is creating the issue.
Please try to unextport the volumes from both host and volume side. Hope one of the methods work for you:
1. SSMC main menu >> Virtual volumes >> Select the volume >> Actions >> Unexport
2. SSMC main menu >> Hosts >> Select the exported host >> Actions >> Unexport
If that doesn't work, create the new clone copy (name it differently) and delete this confusing clone (BKPClone) with the command with the command 'removevv vv_name'. Again check if any residual parameters of the clone is remaining. Remove the everything related the that clone copy using 'removevv' command with relevant options and specifiers.

Srinivas Bhat

Re: Clone VV export
Hello @S_AMB,
If there is inconsistancy between CLI and GUI, please trust CLI. Some redundant cache may be causing issue in GUI. Please remove the system from SSMC and add it again. Try to run export/unexport operations from CLI only.

Re: Clone VV export
I've been working with Nimble storage almost exclusively since HPE acquired Nimble.
Before that, I worked on 3PAR 98+ % of the time from when HP acquired 3PAR. With the 3.3.1 and earlier SSMC, it ran as a service. On the rare occasion SSMC would get out of synch with the CLI, the resolution was to simply restart the SSMC service and wait a few minutes while it refreshed everything it knew about the array(s).
How does one restart the appliance SSMC so it will refresh? Is it as simple as having the hypervisor shut down and restart the appliance?
Not sure which would be the fastest means of refreshing the appliance SSMC; trigger an appliance restart or remove/add of a system.
