indicated as not configured for
clustering.
Wait a few minutes and try again.
MDT-137439
Import
If an import from a Unity or VNX2
system to PowerStore is cancelled by
the user or fails for some reason, it is
possible that subsequent attempts to
import the volume will also fail.
Remove the Unity or VNX2 as a
remote system and then add it
again. This action will clear the issue
and allow the import to proceed.

Internal Migration
During migration the temporary
volumes that are created during
migration are calculated into the vVol
capacity metrics. The temporary
volumes should not be included in the
calculation.
Wait for migration to complete to get
the correct calculation.
MDT-153885
Internal Migration
If a volume is expanded while one of
the nodes is booting up, the size of
the volume might not be changed on
the node that is booting up. As a
result, I/O operations to the newly
expanded region of the volume fail.
Reboot the node that has the
problem or enter a ModifyVolume
command to increase the volume to
slightly larger size, which should
resolve the issue.
MDT-140927
Internal Migration
After a volume is migrated, there
maybe a dip in capacity and
performance metrics reporting for that
volume at the end of the migration
operation.
None
MDT-156905
Install or Upgrade
After a software update, the NAS
servers may not fail back
automatically to the original node.
Manually fail back the NAS servers
from PowerStore Manager.
MDT-135505
Install or Upgrade
Drive firmware updates may not get
applied to a single or few drives within
the appliance. This may occur
because of a timing issue between
the two nodes in the appliance.
Download and install the drive
firmware again to ensure it gets
updated on the drives that were
missed in the previous attempt.

If the peer node is inaccessible for too
long, the software upgrade can fail.
Retry the software upgrade.
