Resolved Issues

  • AGT-63194: [CS1599731]: RCA Request for "Server went to HUNG state during the NAS encryption

    AFFECTED VERSIONS: 7.6.0.87 – 7.7.0.87

    In a previous fix, CTE added a call to an AIX kernel function from a service thread. The thread environment was not configured properly. This led to the hang/crash. This has been fixed.

  • AGT-63279 [CS1599731] The snapshot directory was not skipped during Data Transformation

    AFFECTED VERSIONS: 7.6.0.87 – 7.7.0.87

    The snapshot directory is a backup directory that is read only so CTE should not be altering it. This has been fixed. The snapshot directory is skipped during backup.

Note

If you change the key that is used during the backup, you will need to keep track of which key was used for each version of the snapshot so that if you want to restore the files, you have the proper key for restoration.

Known Issues

  • AGT-48611: AIX upgrade from 7.1.0.33 to 7.5.0.25 with existing GuardPoints causes IO to hang when DSM is used as Key Manager

    AFFECTED VERSIONS: 7.5.0.25

    This issue occurs when using DSM as the key manager with CTE/VTE v6.4.9 or a previous version.

    Work-around

    Restart the agent or reboot the machine.

Note

This issue does not occur when:

  • Using CipherTrust Manager as the key manager

  • Using DSM as the key manager with CTE/VTE v6.4.10 or a subsequent version
