Cannot Access a Resource Owned by Another Controller

You received the message about not being able to access a resource owned by another controller

because you tried to access a controller that has not been discovered. You should discover all

controllers on the Engenio storage system.
For example, assume you discovered only one of the controllers on an Engenio storage system with

two controllers. If you want to change a volume, such as add or delete a LUN, you will not be able

to make the change to the volume associated with the controller that has not been discovered.
See

Discovering NAS Devices, Tape Libraries, Switches and Storage Systems

” on page 17 for

more information on how to discover a controller.

Error -56

If you see error -56, the switch has network connection failures/problems. To solve the problem,

make sure the switch is physically connected to the network. Then, redo the task you were originally

trying to complete.
If you now see -21(OBJECT_NOT_FOUND) errors, the switch needs to be rediscovered.

“Can't delete this zone” Message

If you are shown the following message when you try to delete a zone, move the zone to an inactive

zone set. Then, delete the zone.

Can't delete this zone, it is member of an Active Zoneset

Changes in EFC Manager Requiring Discovery Data Collection/Get Details

If you use EFC Manager to delete zones or zone sets, perform Discovery Data Collection/Get

Details on the management server afterwards. The changes are not reflected by the management

server until Discovery Data Collection/Get Details is done.

About Swapping Host Bus Adapters

Swapping brands of host bus adapters (HBA) on a Microsoft Windows 2000 host may have

undesirable side effects. For example, after swapping out one brand of an HBA for another

(including driver installation), WinMgmt.exe might crash repeatedly and appear to be associated

with an error in the Windows Event Log about being unable to retrieve data from the PerfLib

subkey in the Registry. To solve this problem, reinstall the operating system.
