This document highlights minimum, recommended, and latest code versions for Dell Technologies Enterprise and Datacenter Infrastructure products. We carefully evaluate and monitor code deployment data to ensure that product releases meet our stringent expectations to provide our customers with reliable products and solutions.

This article details the issue of 'Cluster configuration has failed' during the configuration process.

Once access list control is enabled in the Common Event Enabler (CEE) registry, the correct NAS server IPs are configured. However, services like Common Antivirus Agent (CAVA) and Common Event Publishing Pool (CEPP) may then fail to operate as expected.

Performance tabs fail to load correctly after an upgrade to PowerstoreOS 4.3.0x.

This article shows the PowerStoreOS (Operating System) release matrix, and guidance on how to correlate the various packages.

Occasionally health checks should be added after the PowerStoreOS is released. These health checks are supplied by the thin package mechanism, and identify various known issues in the PowerStore cluster.

This health check ensures that no duplicate NTP server IP addresses exist and verifies internal consistency. The check applies to upgrade paths from 3.x/4.0.x/4.1.0.0 → 4.1.x/4.2.x, but not for 4.3.x or higher or systems already at 4.1.0.1.

A previously installed PowerStore software component has become incompatible with the PowerStoreOS after the operating system (OS) upgrade.

This article answers frequently asked questions associated with drive firmware packages and releases.

After upgrading to PowerStoreOS 4.3.0.x, Veeam no longer works as expected.

PowerStoreOS 4.1 introduced automatic renewal of PowerStore Certificate Authority (CA) signed certificates and alerting for Certificate expiration. The automatic certificate renewal fails to renew the PowerStore Manager cluster Certificate if the scope is the Cluster Management IP.

Dell PowerStore Family remediation is available for multiple security vulnerabilities that may be exploited by malicious users to compromise the affected system.

This document describes the issues resolved in the patch releases of PowerStoreOS.

The discard changes feature in async replication allows customers to test disaster recovery. This is done by performing a planned failover from the production site to the disaster recovery (DR) site, making changes, and then failing back. During failback, customers can choose to discard those changes.

After importing file systems through Network File System (NFS) 4.2 from Unity to PowerStore, punched holes and NFS 4.2 labels are not preserved. On SE Linux systems, this results in access denials because NFS 4.2 labels are not migrated.

The NAS server is operating in non-production mode, and replication sessions on the production site have switched to the destination mode due to a network outage.

The replication session entered an ERROR state after the destination system was rebooted in a cross-version setup, where PowerStore v4.3 is the source and PowerStore v4.1 is the destination.

Upon creating a file system (FS) with an identical name to the SNS name, SNS export cannot be mounted using NFSv4.

The Historical Usage widget on the PowerStore Manager’s Capacity Dashboard displays a line chart of data usage over time. Users can adjust the widget to show different ranges, including the last 24 hours, the last day, or the last two years. When selecting the Last 24 Hours view, a rare timing issue may occur, causing the chart to display no data.

Starting with PowerStore version 3.0, custom paths for security and system logs can be configured through the NAS Server Registry. If the parameter cifs.userDefinedLogFiles remains at its default value of 1, the system resets log paths to their default location after a reboot or failover.

NAS docker panics while updating remote system updateRemoteSystem.

After performing an NDU from PowerStore 4.2 to 4.3, user may encounter an exception in the GUI when viewing Performance charts on the Appliance Details page. This issue occurs only if a charting option (such as chart type or period) was modified in version 4.2 before the upgrade to 4.3. If an exception does occur on the Appliance Performance page, the PowerStore Manager would need to be restarted from the root URL management IP.

Management UI and Rest are not accessible due to misalignment of Top of Rack (ToR) switch ARP table.
