Known Issues (Release 7.7)
You might encounter the following known issues after upgrading to release 7.7. This list is current as of the release date.
Where available, the workaround for an issue is also documented. HPE regularly releases maintenance releases and patches to fix issues. We recommend checking the release notes for any subsequent maintenance releases to see if one or more of these issues are fixed.
Client Libraries
- MFS-18249
-
The FUSE-based POSIX client remains in a dead/inactive state when the ticket expires.
Workaround: To generate a new ticket, manually update the JWT access and refresh tokens.
- MFS-18258
-
When you add a new cluster to a cluster group, the FUSE-based POSIX client and the loopbacknfs POSIX client take about five mintues to load or list the newly added cluster.
Workaround: None.
Data Fabric UI
Sign-in Issues
- DFUI-160
- If you sign in to the Data Fabric UI as an SSO user but you do not have fabric-level login permission, a sign-in page for the "Managed Control System" (MCS) is displayed. The "Managed Control System" sign-in is not usable for the consumption-based HPE Ezmeral Data Fabric.
- DFUI-437
- If you sign in to the Data Fabric UI as a non-SSO user and then sign out and try to sign in as an SSO user, a sign-in page for the "Managed Control System" (MCS) is displayed. The "Managed Control System" sign-in is not usable for the consumption-based HPE Ezmeral Data Fabric.
- DFUI-811
- If you launch the Data Fabric UI and then sign out and wait for 5-10 minutes and then attempt to sign in, a sign-in page for the "Managed Control System" (MCS) is displayed.
- DFUI-826
- In a cloud fabric, an empty page is displayed after a session expires and you
subsequently click on a fabric name. The browser can display the following
URL:
https://<hostname>:8443/oath/login
- DFUI-874
- Sometimes when you attempt to sign in to the Data Fabric UI, the "Managed Control System" (MCS) is displayed, or the Object Store UI is displayed.
- DFUI-897
- A user with no assigned role cannot sign in to the Data Fabric UI.
- DFUI-902
- Incorrect resource data is displayed when an LDAP user signs in to the Data Fabric UI without any SSO roles.
- DFUI-1123
- Attempting to sign in to the Data Fabric UI as a group
results in a login error message in the browser. For
example:
https://<hostname>:8443/login?error
- DFUI-1135
- The Data Fabric UI does not allow an SSO user to log in after an unsuccessful login attempt.
Mirroring Issues
- DFUI-1227
- If you create a mirror volume with a security policy, an error is generated when you try to remove the security policy.
- DFUI-1229
- Data aces on a mirror volume cannot be edited.
Display Issues
- DFUI-1186
- After you complete the SSO setup for a new fabric, fabric resources such as volumes and mirrors are not immediately displayed in the Data Fabric UI.
- DFUI-1221
- If a fabric includes a large number of resources, loading the resources to display in the Resources card on the home page can take a long time.
- DFUI-2102
- When you create a table replica on a primary cluster with the source table on a
secondary cluster, the replication operation times out. However, the table replica is
successfully created on the primary cluster. The table replica appears in the
Replication tab, but does not appear in the Data Fabric UI
Graph or Table view for the primary
cluster.
This behavior is the same for both a source table on the primary cluster and the replica on the secondary cluster.
- DFUI-2099
- When you delete a table replica from the Data Fabric UI Home page, the table replica remains listed in the Replication tab. When you select the table on the Replication tab, a message returns stating that the requested file does not exist.
External S3
- DFUI-2157
- Editing buckets on external S3 servers is not supported.
- MFS-18893
- s3cmd cp throws error while copy large or jumbo object from Data Fabric to external S3 buckets or across external S3 buckets, even if object is copied successfully .
- MFS-18905
- The copy object operation fails intermittently when copying an object by using AWS CLI, across S3 buckets on various cloud providers to Data Fabric and vice-versa.
Installation or Fabric Creation
- MFS-18734
- Release 7.7.0 of the HPE Ezmeral Data Fabric has a dependency
on the
libssl1.1
package, which is not included in Ubuntu 22.04. As a result, you must apply the package manually to Ubuntu 22.04 nodes before installing Data Fabric software. - MFS-18437
- Fabric creation can fail if host-name resolution takes more than 200 ms.
- DFUI-565, EZINDFAAS-169
- Installation or fabric creation can fail if a proxy is used for internet traffic with the HPE Ezmeral Data Fabric.
NFSv4
- MFS-18264
- Attempts to mount the NFS4 server fail and return the following
error:
Mount.nfs4: Stale file handle
Object Store
- MFS-17233
- On cloud (AWS, Azure, or GCP) fabrics, if an instance is rebooted, the public IP addresses can change. If this happens, the MOSS certificates must be regenerated to include the new IP addresses, and the changes must be propagated to all fabric nodes.
- DFUI-519
- An SSO user is unable to create buckets on the Data Fabric UI and the Object Store. This is applicable to an SSO user with any role such as infrastructure administrator, fabric manager or developer.
- DFUI-577
- Downloading a large file (1 GB or larger) can fail with the following
error:
Unable to download file "<filename>": Request failed with status code 500
- MFS-18250
- The S3 server crashes when you copy a jumbo object (object size>256 MB) from one bucket to another bucket across fabrics using aws s3 cli.
Online Help
- DFUI-459
- If a proxy is used for internet traffic with the HPE Ezmeral Data Fabric, online help screens can time out or fail to fetch help content.
Security Policies
- MFS-18154
- A security policy created on a cloud-based primary fabric (such as AWS) is not replicated on to a secondary fabric created on another cloud provider (such as GCP).
Topics
- DFUI-637
- Non-LDAP SSO user authenticating to Keycloak cannot create topic on the Data Fabric UI.
- DFUI-639
- A non-LDAP SSO user authenticating to Keycloak cannot create a volume or stream using the Data Fabric UI.
Upgrade
- COMSECURE-615
- Upgrading directly from release 6.1.x to release 7.x.x can fail because the upgrade
process reads password information from the default Hadoop
ssl-server.xml
andssl-client.xml
files rather than the original.xml
files. Note that upgrades from release 6.2.0 to 7.x.x are not affected by this issue.
- EZINDFAAS-793
- In an AWS deployment, after an upgrade from release 7.6.1 to 7.7.0, SSO
authentication can be disabled. This can be caused by a missing Keycloak certificate.
To communicate with Keycloak, the API server needs the Keycloak certificate to be part
of the local
ssl_truststore
.
- EZINDFAAS-811
- Upgrading from release 7.6.1 to 7.7.0 fails if you initiate the upgrade from a Data Fabric UI URL that is not the URL provided by the seed node when you created the fabric. The seed node indicates the API server node that is the primary installer host.
- MFS-17624
- An upgrade from release 7.5.0 or earlier to 7.6.0 or later can terminate with a fatal error detected by the Java Runtime Environment.
- MFS-18920
- Upgrading from release 7.5.0 to 7.7.0 can change the valid duration of the JWT access token. Normally the token should be valid for two hours. After an upgrade operation, the valid duration can change from 2 hours to 20 minutes. When this happens, exporting the MAPR_JWT_TOKEN_LOCATION, MAPR_JWT_REFRESH_TOKEN_LOCATION variables does not correct the issue.
- DFUI-2163
- SSO authentication is not enabled for Data Fabric UI, after upgrading from HPE Ezmeral Data Fabric release version 7.5 to release version 7.6.
Volumes
- DFUI-638
- Non-LDAP SSO user authenticating to Keycloak cannot create volume on the Data Fabric UI.
Workaround: Create a volume via the Data Fabric minIO client.
