UpdateVV Script Prompting for Authentication
Posted: Wed May 17, 2017 12:57 pm
I'm working on editing a script that will accept a parameter for Virtual Volume pattern, take that pattern, export a list of all of the virtual volumes (in this case these are snapshots/virtual copies) with that pattern, and refresh the snapshots.
The script is accepting the parameter and generating/exporting the list of virtual volumes with that specific pattern without a problem, however when it attempts to run updatevv, I'm being prompted for authentication - username and password. I already have an encrypted pwfile in the same directory as the script (as well as in the 3PAR CLI\bin directory) - and I believe that it's working because it's logging in and performing the showvv correctly, however I can't figure out why it seems to ignore the specified pwfile when it attempt to actually refresh the snapshots.
Has anyone run into anything like this before?
