Release Notes

virtual disks in a single operation, however, the "Import Foreign Configuration" task may report
successful completion even when inconsistent virtual disks are present and have not been
imported successfully.
Solution: If the "Import Foreign Configuration" task is unable to import an inconsistent virtual disk,
then the physical disks that belong to the virtual disk continue to display a "Foreign" state after the
"Import Foreign Configuration" task completes. In this case, repeat the "Import Foreign
Configuration" task until one of the following occurs:
o There are no longer any physical disks in "Foreign" state after the "Import Foreign
Configuration" task completes.
o You receive an error stating that the "Import Foreign Configuration" task has not completed
successfully. This error indicates that there are no longer any consistent virtual disks
available to be imported. Therefore, all virtual disks that are not imported are inconsistent
and you can either perform a "Clear Foreign Configuration" to remove the virtual disks or
remove the physical disks from the controller.
• DF60696: Storage Management responds slowly when using Internet Explorer 7.x, 8.x on a system
with mixed SAS and SATA physical disks.
Description: When using the "Create Virtual Disk" wizard from the Storage Management graphical
user interface (GUI), you may notice decreased performance when using Internet Explorer 7.x, 8.x
on a system with multiple PowerVault MD1000 storage enclosures that are heavily populated with
mixed SAS and SATA physical disks.
Solution: Use a supported browser other than Internet Explorer 7.x, 8.x or use the Storage
Management command line interface (CLI) to create the virtual disk. See the Server Administrator
Release Notes for information on supported browsers. See the Storage Management online Help or
the "Server Administrator Command Line Interface User's Guide" for information on using the
Storage Management CLI.
• DF152362: Storage Management may not display controllers installed with the Service and
Diagnostics utility.
Description: Storage Management may not recognize devices that are installed after Storage
Management is already running.
Solution: If Storage Management does not recognize a newly-added device and this problem has
not been corrected with a Global Rescan, then reboot the system.
• DF120475: Storage Management SNMP traps are not filtered by Server Administrator.
Description: Server Administrator allows you to filter SNMP traps that you do not want to receive.
To implement SNMP trap filtering, select the "System" tree-> "Alert Management" tab-> "SNMP
Traps" subtab. The "SNMP Traps" subtab has options for enabling and disabling SNMP traps based
on severity or the component that generates the trap. Even when the SNMP traps are disabled,
Storage Management generates SNMP traps.
Solution: SNMP trap filtering will be provided in a future release of Storage Management.
• 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 on as an Administrator to perform these actions.
• 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.
• BITS118226: The representation of NVMe devices residing on backplanes that attach to PCIe
Extender cards is inaccurate on Storage Management. This is because Storage Management does
not have a process to understand the mapping of the NVMe device, backplane, and the PCIe
Extender card. This issue exists only on PowerEdge R920 servers and does not impact the
operations on the NVMe device. Multiple backplanes on Server Administrator indicates the
