Table 16 B.11.31.1109
DescriptionDefect ID
In the previous release, DAS (Direct Attached Storage) Provider consumes -
health offline / online events instead of status_change evm notifications.
QXCR1001103479
Event 100 and 101 will not be generated by the provider if the disks are
behind FC/SAS card. Since events are not generated, Disk instance provider
does not refresh its cache. This results in displaying the disk details even
though the disk is removed or not online.
This defect has been fixed in this release.
The disk online/offline events will be generated for disks behind FC/SAS.
In the previous release, DAS (Direct Attached Storage) Provider used
semaphore with semid == 0 even when it was created/used by other

The usage of Semaphores has been replaced by a Mutex lock.
