creategroupvvcopy command.
Misleading command

Integer arguments to CLI

Consequently, integer arguments passed to the CLI commands are also treated as
octal numbers if they have a leading 0.

The showcage -sfp command shows the sfp state as OK, Degraded, Failed or
Unknown. For an unqualified SFP, the state should be Degraded but is shown as
OK.
Drive cage displays do not

Workaround: If showcage –sfp shows an SFP as OK, try using showcage
–sfp –d <cage_name> . If the Qualified field shows No, then it is an unqualified
SFP and its state should be deemed as Degraded.

volumes.
• The raw used space is calculated wrong for RAID 5 and RAID 6 Logical Disks.
In this case, the showcpg –r and showsys –space command output will
display wrong information.
Bug 48234 is opened to track this problem.
