The following are open issues regarding the Storage Management
Service.

STORAGE MANAGEMENT SERVICE ISSUES FOR ALL SUPPORTED OPERATING SYSTEMS
----------------------------------------------------------------------
* When issuing certain "omconfig storage" CLI commands with "Power
User" privileges, the "Error! User has insufficient privileges to
run command: omconfig" message may be displayed. You must be logged
in as an Administrator to perform these actions.
* On a Windows Server 2003 system, it is strongly recommended that you
update to Service Pack 1 or later. Service Pack 1 is required to
fully support SAS technology.
* On a Windows 2000 system, it is strongly recommended that you update
to Service Pack 4 or later. Service Pack 4 is required to
fully support SAS technology.
* On a Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3.x system, Update 3 or later is
required for Storage Management and Update 7 or later is required to
fully support SAS technology. It is strongly recommended that you use
the Red Hat Network (RHN) service to update your system software with
the latest update package before deploying your system. Go to
www.redhat.com to access the RHN service and download updates.
* Invalid "Format and Check Consistency" options are displayed
for a regenerating virtual disk. When a physical disk in a virtual
disk is rebuilding, the virtual disk changes to a "Regenerating"
state. The Format and Check Consistency operations should not
be performed on a virtual disk that is in a Regenerating state.
However, the task drop-down menu for a Regenerating
RAID 1-concatenated virtual disk may display the "Format and
Check Consistency" options. Dell is working to resolve this
problem.
* If a physical disk in a RAID 1-concatenated virtual disk fails, the
virtual disk is in a "Degraded" state. Rebooting the system may cause
the virtual disk to change to a "Failed" state yet the virtual disk
is still fully operational and can be restored to "OK" status once
a functional physical disk is added back to the RAID-1 set. Dell is
working to resolve this problem.
* Using the Storage Management Service "Advanced Create VDisk Wizard"
may occasionally result in a vertical scrollbar of less than
normal width. If this occurs, resizing the Server Administrator
window causes the vertical scrollbar to be redrawn correctly.
* Using the GUI, if a virtual disk is renamed to a name containing
multiple blank and consecutive spaces, the name is truncated to a
single space after "Apply" is clicked.
* When the "Open in a New Window" option is selected in the Storage
