4.0 Modifications to the InForm OS
The following items have been addressed in this release.
Bug ID Item Description
38093 SCSI reservations
should not be blocked
by the system manager
configuration lock.
Some long-running system operations, (such as dynamic
optimizations for large volumes), could occasionally result
in SCSI-2 reservations not being handled in a timely manner,
and VMware ESX hosts seeing high IO latencies.
This has been fixed by handling SCSI-2 reservations more
efficiently even while the system is busy with long-running
operations.
39666 Incorrect termination
of some SCSI control
commands during a
Fibre Channel port
reset causes the
controller node to
restart.
When a Fibre Channel adapter port was reset, the controller
node could sometimes go offline due to a validity check
failing due to certain host SCSI commands, (such as Test Unit
Ready), being incorrectly marked as completed prior to the
status being returned to the host.
