6.

Make your changes in the Custom Properties field. Change the value of the
cimom.provider.hds.ProvisioningTimeout property. The value is in milliseconds. For

example, assume you want the management server to wait an hour. You would assign 3600000

to cimom.provider.hds.ProvisioningTimeout, since 3600000 milliseconds is one

hour.

cimom.provider.hds.ProvisioningTimeout

=3600000

Restart the service for the management server for your changes to take effect.
While AppStorManager is restarting, users are not able to access the management server. The

AppStorManager service must be running for the management server to monitor elements.

Initiator Ports Cannot Be Used for Provisioning

Ports designated as an Initiator on a storage system belonging to the HDS Freedom Storage™

Lightning 9900™ Series or Freedom Storage Lightning 9900V Series cannot be used for

provisioning. If you select one of these ports, you receive a message saying that provisioning failed

because the HiCommand Database was not refreshed. The management server does not support

provisioning for ports designated as Initiators on these storage systems.

The Software Is Unable to Map a Host to Volumes

in Different Host Storage Domains of the Same Port

on HDS 9900V

On HDS 9900V storage systems, if a host is already mapped to a volume and you try to map the

same host to a volume in another host storage domain, corresponding to the same port, it will fail.

However for HDS 9900, the host can be mapped to a volume in another host storage domain

corresponding to the same port.

A Default LUN Number Is Used Instead of a User-Specified One

When you create a LUN, the user-specified LUN is ignored. The LUN is created with the next

available default number.
