EMC VSI plugin errors?
I updated the SE software and the EMC VSI plugin in order to fix a manual array sync issue on a V-MAX-1 array using microcode 5875. However, I am now receiving EMC VSI errors when I select certain options on the EMC VSI tab in the VC Client. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I have attached a zip file with images of the errors and the versions of the plugins, SE, vcenter and vclient.
No Events found!

This actually isnt a SE problem--the storage viewer version i see is 5.2 and the SRA Utils is 4.1. This is not a supported configuration and will not work. The VSI framework 5.2 uses newer client libraries than 4.1 did and since SRA Utils 4.1 is looking for the VIM25Service2008 DLL and the Storage Viewer upgrade replaced it with the VIM25Storage2010 DLL the SRA Utilities will fail to function properly.
Since you are using SRM 4.1 not 5.0 you will need to keep the SRA Utilities at 4.1 and all other locally installed VSI features such as storage viewer at the 4.x level. So uninstall VSI 5.2 and reinstall the 4.1 versions. If you want to use the newer version of SV with that vCenter instance you will need to install it on another host.

Cody,
Thanks. Looks like an upgrade to SRM5 and Vcenter 5 is in my future.

No problem!
Yeah I definitely recommend it. SRM 5 in particular is really great.
Below is a link to the SRDF/SRM 5 techbook if you are curious about the new features.
