Solution Type Technical Instruction Sure Solution 1465786.1 : Pillar Axiom: Axiom Path Manager (APM) OS dependency and compatibility
In this Document
Created from <SR 3-5747701331> Applies to:Pillar Axiom 600 Storage System - Version Not Applicable to Not Applicable [Release N/A]Information in this document applies to any platform. GoalThis document addresses OS-agnostic questions associated with choosing the correct Axiom Path Manager (APM) software to use FixThe questions below may apply to other OSes, even though this was specific to Linux distros Answer: For this particular reason, it is the case because CentOS and RHEL use the same kernel base, and will therefore be interchangeable. The same is not true for other base OS. So, it's always a good practice to download the APM for your particular OS version, just in case divergence of base kernels takes place. Answer: APM relies on the correct version of multipath drivers, and HBA drivers associated with the OS or anything underlying. If you want to update a few packages, ensure that they don't have dependencies with either packages I mentioned. Answer: See response to item 4 above. Answer: If they are not on the list, then it means we have not fully certified any APM version to work with it, and you may need to rely on the native multipathing support from within the OS. You will need to check with us when an APM client is available. Answer: We may keep some deprecated versions of APM at some point. Just let us know if we still carry one specific to your needs and we will let you know. Attachments This solution has no attachment |
