Connectivity-
Networks
A cluster "Network validation failed with
unexpected error (0xE0E700001)"
message is returned erroniously while
validating initial configuration. The error
occurs because an internal entry for DNS
was previously configured.
Ignore the warning and continue configuring
the cluster. After the cluster is created you
can validate that the DNS configuration was
succesful in the PowerStore Manager.
MDT-55667
Data Collection
Storage container capacity metrics are not
available until I/O operations have begun.
Look at the capacity metrics again after I/O
operations on the storage container have
been performed.
MDT-133408
Data Protection
When a volume group is created with
member volumes and is protected by a
protection policy that includes a
replication rule, the volume group
members may be delayed in being
replicated to the remote system until the
next RPO cycle. The default replication
rule RPO value in PowerStore Manager is
1 hour, but it can range from 5 minutes to
24 hours.
If the remote system connection is healthy,
the member volumes should automatically
be replicated to the destination during the
next RPO cycle. To update the member
volumes on the destination before the next
RPO cycle, navigate to Protection->
Replication, select the volume group session
and perform a "Synchronize" operation.
