Known Issues Related to the Data Collector
The following known issues are related to the Data Collector:
Table 23. Known Data Collector Issues in Storage Manager 2019 R1
Issue Description
DSM-42392 Attempting to upload a custom SSL certificate to the Data Collector fails with the following
error message:
Certificates do not conform to algorithm constraints
Workaround: Do not use an SSL certificate that is signed using the RSASSA-PSS signature
algorithm.
DSM-41119 Database errors might occur if a Data Collector uses an internal flat file database and manages
a Storage Center with multiple disk folders.
Workaround: Use an external database instead of an internal flat file database for the Data
Collector.
CAUTION: Internal flat file databases are not recommended for Data Collectors in
production environments.
DSM-37868 If a Storage Center with an expired password disconnects from the Storage Manager Data
Collector, the Storage Center cannot be reconnected to the Data Collector.
Workaround: Change the password on the Storage Center by directly connecting to it using
the Storage Manager Client or Unisphere web interface.
