Workaround/Resolution
MDT-168710
Internal
Migration
In a PowerStore T cluster with more than
one appliance, internal migration of
Volumes or Volume Groups used by
Microsoft Windows Failover Cluster may
result in hosts losing access to storage.
Internal migration of Volumes or Volume
Groups used by Microsoft Windows Failover
cluster must be done with no active I/O
during cutover.
I/O can be quiesced by
powering down the host or unmapping the
Volumes.
Failure to quiesce I/O during
cutover could lead to data unavailability.
MDT-167020
Internal
Migration
Migration of a storage resource failed with
the error "Transit object with Handle <id>
: status online on only one node." One of
the nodes of the migration source
appliance was down when the
synchronize phase started. Both nodes
must be online for migration.
Bring the offline node back online and then
try the migration again.
MDT-145764
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-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.

Upgrade
If the Pre-Upgrade Health Check fails
during an upgrade from PowerStore OS
1.0 to PowerStore OS 1.0.1 or later,
clicking the failed operation link under
Recent activities might result in an error
an error because of a localization issue
with the event message.

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
