One or more warnings have occurred. It is recommended that you follow the
instructions provided to correct the problem then try again.
———————————–Information———————————-
Control Station: Check if standby is up
Information HC_CS_27389984778: The standby Control Station is
currently powered on. It will be powered off during upgrade, and then
later restarted and upgraded.
——————————————————————————–
————————————Warnings————————————
Control Station: Check all callhome files delivered
Warning HC_CS_18800050328: There are 36 undelivered Call Home
incidents and 3 scheduled Call Home files left in the
/nas/log/ConnectHome directory(es)
Action :
Check the /nas/log/connectemc/ConnectEMC log to ensure the connection
is established correctly. To test your Callhome configuration, you can
run /nas/sbin/nas_connecthome -test { -email_1 | -email_2 | -ftp_1 |
-ftp_2 | -modem_1 | -modem_2 } command. View the RSC*.xml files under
the /nas/log/ConnectHome directory(es) and inspect the CDATA content
to find out and possibly resolve the problem. To remove the call home
incidents and files, run the command “/nas/sbin/nas_connecthome –
service clear”. Otherwise escalate this issue through your support
organization.
Control Station: Check auto transfer status
Warning HC_CS_18800050417: The automatic transfer feature is disabled.
Action :
EMC recommends the automatic transfer feature to be enabled via
command:
/nas/tools/automaticcollection -enable
or from Unisphere:
1. Select VNX > [VNX_name] > System. Click the link for “Manage Log
Collection for File” Under Service Tasks.
2. Select Enable Automatic Transfer.
3. Click Apply.
By default, support materials will be transferred to ftp.emc.com,
but you can modify the location in the
/nas/site/automaticcollection.cfg file. For more information, search
the Knowledgebase on Powerlink as follows:
1. Log in to http://powerlink.emc.com and go to Support >

during Kerberos authentication may happen (timeskew).
Action : Use the server_date command to define another NTP server on
the Data Mover. Read the man pages for details and examples.
Storage System : Check if storage processors are read cache enabled
Warning HC_BE_18799984735: SPA Read Cache State on VNX FCN0xxxxxxxx5
