14 Limitations
Limitations
The following limitations exist in this release.
PowerStore T and PowerStore X model limitations
The following limitations exist in PowerStore T and PowerStore X deployment models.
Functional Area Description
Importing external storage to
PowerStore
A maximum of 16 import sessions is supported in the Ready-For-Cutover state during an import.
In some cases, when several dozen import operations are run back-to-back, intermittent failures
of alternate import sessions may occur. If this occurs, do the following:
Remove the remote system and then add it again.
Run fewer set of imports (16 or less) at a time. It is recommended to start all these import
sessions with automatic cutover turned off.
Once all imports have reached the Ready-For-Cutover state, do a manual cutover.
After one set of imports is completed, run the next set of imports after a delay of 10 minutes.
This delay allows enough time for the system to cleanup any connections to the source system.
