Dell Shared PowerEdge RAID Controller 8 Cards For Dell PowerEdge VRTX Systems User’s Guide
Incorrect number of virtual disks displayed in Windows Disk Manager
- Issue:
- The number of disks displayed in Windows Disk Manager is more than the actual number of virtual disks assigned to the server.
- Corrective Action:
- This issue occurs if the MPIO feature is not installed in systems with the Fault Tolerant Shared PERC 8 card configuration. Install MPIO services from the list of features that can be installed on the server. For instructions on how to install MPIO, see Installing and Configuring MPIO at technet.microsoft.com.
