11131
Managed snapshots of a SQL volume set may cause errors. Affects SQL Server® 2005
pre SP3. SP3 or Microsoft Hot Fix KB934396 fixes this issue.
11361
Fixed issue with the Cliq assignvolume command where lack of initiator name caused
an error even though it is an optional parameter.
10391
Fixed interaction between installed CLI and SAN/iQ software whereby repeated use
of a few specific commands could cause unexpected memory usage.
10396
Fix included to assure network card settings on the NSM 160 are consistently showing
that TCP Segmentation Offload is turned off to prevent network communication problems in some
environments.
10398
Fixed a rare problem in the storage server that caused it to spontaneously restart under
a combination of heavy IO load and snapshot deletes.
10409
Changed the display for the iSCSI gateway connection to Hostname(IP Address) instead
of just the IP address for ease of use.
10410
Fixed the incorrect reporting of CPU Utilization in alert notification and performance
dashboard.
10415
Added upgrade logic to attempt repair of OS array when possible during upgrade
rather than failing when encountering this rare condition.
10417
Added a check for verifying IP address format of the Virtual IP in the CLIQ command
modifyCluster.
10418
Added additional checking for a few specific CLI commands when executed from the
on-node CLI.
10537
Made the System Watch monitoring variable a permanent variable to assure it is not
accidentally deleted.
10544
Added RAID controller cache status to the CMC hardware report.
10563
Added a Node Summary report to the Centralized Management Console tasks menu
to provide an efficient way to gather basic storage node information from multiple nodes.
10576
Field imaging now can be performed with the SATA-DVD drive on the NSM 2060.
10606
Fixed issue that blocked upgrades and back-outs if the OS hardware RAID array is
degraded or rebuilding.
Fixed issue where the Failover Manager and ESX Failover Manger were sharing install IDs which
could cause some confusion.
Fixes originally released as patches
9928
The background parity initialization status has been corrected for RAID 5 and RAID 6
Logical Drives.
10354
Insight Manager agents are now compatible with 5.2x firmware.
10355
Storage nodes upgraded to SAN/iQ 8.0 that use CHAP authentication, now have
sessions displayed in the SAN/iQ 8.0 Performance Monitor.
10394
Eliminated interruption of logging services and addressed a service connection issue
that can lead to a short term volume availability outage.
10518
For the NSM2060/NSM4150 storage nodes, compress the RAID controller log to reduce
space utilization issues of the log partition.
10534
Fixed issue where a disconnect from the CMC occurred when the Service Console is
trying to upload large log files.
10553
An upgrade process does not complete properly, which can result in SAN/iQ services
not restarting as expected.
10633
Prevent the SAN/iQ store service from consuming excess memory in certain situations
involving large volumes/snapshots.
