IT46087: STORAGE INSIGHTS ONLY SHOWS ONE HOST CONNECTED TO THE STORAGE EVEN IF MANY HOSTS ARE CONNECTED TO STORAGE.

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• Storage Insights, on Device in Host Connections we see the
  notification of (1) Host, but this number fluctuates.
  In the full_probe we have all the host connection data (in
  *_output.txt under datapath i.e. svcinfo lshostvdiskmap) and in
  the miniprobe, it is limited to 1 or 5 or 6, and the same is
  seen in Storage Insights GUI.

  * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION:                                         *
  * In Storage Insights, when viewing the Device's               *
  * Host Connections, there is an incorrect value of             *
  * (1) Host, and this number fluctuates between                 *
  * the correct value and other incorrect values.                *
  *                                                              *
  * After a full probe of the device there is all the            *
  * host connection data and Storage Insights GUI                *
  * reflects the correct information.  But in the                *
  * mini-probe, the value fluctuates between 1-6,                *
  * which is incorrect.                                          *
