DSM-42715 SRM generates the following error message when two volumes use the same LUN number:
Duplicate LUN 'X' for initiatorGroup
Workaround: Ensure that the LUN numbers for all the volumes are unique.
DSM-28137 SRM planned failovers with Live Volumes fail when vMotion is not enabled in the environment.
Workaround: Dell Storage Replication Adapter (SRA) with Stretched Storage and Live
Volumes requires vMotion. Enable vMotion.

flatcontentg/ps-compellent.
DSM-18751 The installation wizard for the Dell Storage Replication Adapter (SRA) allows you to begin

The following known miscellaneous issues are in Storage Manager:
Table 26. Known Miscellaneous Issues in Storage Manager 2019 R1
Issue Description
DSM-28532 After changing the Chargeback department of a volume that has the same index as a volume
on a different Storage Center, Storage Manager might not show that the volume changed
Chargeback departments. Storage Manager might also change the Chargeback department of
the volume with the same index on the other Storage Center.
Workaround: Perform a Copy/Mirror/Migrate to a new volume. This problem does not occur if
the new volume does not share an index with a different volume on another system.
DSM-27414 When changing the BMC interface configuration mode from static to DHCP, the IP addresses
remain set up in static mode. If you change the configuration mode from DHCP to static,
and modify only the IPv4 address, Storage Manager changes the netmask and gateway IP
addresses to invalid values.
Workaround: After modifying the configuration mode, ensure that the IP addresses are
correct.
DSM-16593 Applying SNMP setting to other Storage Centers without SNMP enabled fails without
displaying an error.
Workaround: Enable SNMP on the Storage Center before applying any settings.
DSM-8608 When a multi‐page automated report is printed in portrait orientation, the first page is printed
in portrait orientation and subsequent pages are incorrectly printed in landscape orientation.
Workaround: Save the report as a PDF then print it using a different application.
