Ignite question

[Marco A.]

Hello,

Someone know where is this variable ?

_hp_hide_other_disks

I'm having issues with this one, apparently I need to split this variable's value into different lines, but I don't know where it is located.

Regards,

Marco

Hi Marco,

I never used/set that variable in Ignite-UX, anyway I think you can change that by the command instl_adm:

http://www.docs.hp.com/en/5992-3336/5992-3336.pdf

Chapter 5 about "Controlling the I/O Configuration Process"

Hope this helps you.

Best regards,
Fabio

Is this during an install or a recovery action?

This config parameter is not set by default.

But it sounds like
('The _hp_hide_other_disks variable is not a valid') your version of Ignite may be too old and is not recognizing this relatively new parameter.

[Marco A.]

In fact that's just when trying to start the "ignite" GUI .

Try running 'instl_adm -T' on you Ignite server. This parses all custom config files and my locate the file where this syntax is.

Hello,

In fact I got the Ignite C.7.5.142 , I don't know why this is getting this issue, the issue was suposed to be fixed since the version C.6.7 , but the error is reappearing.

Now I'll trace the application to see what it is doing.

The instl_adm -T didn't take effect.

Thanks for the replays,

Regards,

Marco
