Description
Workaround/Resolution
MDT-266683
PowerStore REST
API
You cannot issue Swagger UI commands
with Operator, Storage Administrator, and
VM Administrator roles. You must log in
with the higher-level Administrator role if
you want to complete tasks such as fetching
or reading data from PowerStore.
Customers can login in as administrator to
use the swagger panel in PowerStore
Manager.
MDT-130894
PowerStore REST
API
Two invalid resource_types, FEPort and
Initiator, may be returned by the event and
alert APIs.
Events or alerts with resource_type FEPort
or Initiator should ignore the
resource_type values.
External OpenAPI clients must disable
validation for the event and alert APIs
with resource_types of FEPort or Initiator.
MDT-153026
Security
When a drive is inserted into an appliance, it
will take time for D@RE to unlock it. Most
drives take a few minutes. However, it takes
more time for a ColdStream drive to unlock.
The time is proportional to the size of the
Intel Optane SCM drive, for example, server
minutes for 375 GB, 15 minutes for 750 GB,
and 27 minutes for 1.5TB. If you pull a drive
out before it is unlocked, the drive will
appear as disconnected. However, the drive
will not be automatically removed from the
appliance.
If you intend to use the drive, re-insert the
drive and let the DARE unlock complete. If
you intend to stop using the drive, re-
insert the drive, wait for enough time
(time to unlock plus about one minute for
other overhead), and then remove the
drive. The drive will then become
disconnected and automatically removed
from the system.
MDT-346149
Storage - Block
During system metadata consolidation a rare
condition may occur which can cause data
services on a single node to restart.
This will
interrupt IO servicing on the node for
approximately two minutes until the service
is started.
IO to the other node is
unaffected.
None
MDT-284475
Storage - Block
After mapping a LUN or creating a VM, the
LUN or VM appears correctly, but it is
inaccessible to hosts.
Unmap the non-working LUN and map it
again. For VMs, delete the non-working
VM and recreate it.
MDT-242368
Storage - Block
Unable to delete a volume group after
deleting a replication session, due to
undeleted replication session system
snapshots.
Contact your service provider for the
procedure to delete the snapshots.
MDT-361933
Storage - File
File system asynchronous replication may
use an existing destination NAS server in
non-production mode as replication target if
it shares the same name as the source NAS
server.
Rename the destination NAS server
before setting up remote protection for
the new NAS server that has the same
name. Also, ensure that a NAS server in
non-production mode with the same
name does not exist.
MDT-314995
Storage - File
In a Unified appliance cluster, after the
system exits from an out of space scenario,
some of the NAS Servers will not return to
Read-Write mode when the ControlPath
restarts.
