UIM - cdm probe crashes with iostat devices

Products

• DX Unified Infrastructure Management (Nimsoft / UIM)

Issue/Introduction

iostat disks are being added dynamically to the cdm probe configuration using regex.  The probe is crashing while loading these disks.

Environment

• UIM 20.4
• cdm 7.10/7.11

Cause

The logs show the name of the disk to be a shortened version of the actual name. The leading characters of the disk name were being removed by the probe and when trying to monitor the disk with the wrong name, the probe was crashing.

The probe was using: -zzzz-yyyy-xxxxxxxxxxxx-lun-0

versus

The actual name of the disk: 123c1a456-7899-zzzz-yyyy-xxxxxxxxxxxx-lun-0
