This procedure describes how to add another IP address subnet for use by the MDM cluster. This addresses scenarios where the MDM cluster uses a single network, or when an existing network must be replaced by a different one or to simply add another network (to an already multiple-network cluster). The MDM supports up to eight networks.

After MDM switchover, SDSs cannot reconnect and MDMs crash.

SDS gets decoupled - the system might experience DU occasionally if more than one SDS decouples concurrently or in case the SDS decouples during a rebuild.

When a vMotion clone of a VM guest is submitted, it takes a lot longer than expected. Scenario Due to an environmental configuration issue, there was contention on the vMotion configured NICs that conflicted with iSCSI and VxFlex SDC traffic, causing reduced performance.

SDS fails to start up.

After restart of ESXi/SVM, the SDS comes up but is in a disconnect state in the UI/CLI.

After following NDU flow and switching to 1_node MDM cluster, upgrading Secondary/TB MDMs and trying to put the back into the cluster, MDM throws an error.

Модернизация не будет начинать или завершать шаг Finalize, так как MDM отображается в состоянии «Выполняется обновление».

При попытке создать том и сопоставить его с вычислительным узлом в OpenStack операция занимает гораздо больше времени (по сравнению с другими узлами), и клиент записывает ошибки для вновь созданного устройства.

Network connectivity issues cause Secondary MDM/s status to become Not synchronized.

Using PowerFlex Manager Deployment or Upgrade will fail in Diskless nodes due to the backplane. When performing deployments on diskless Compute Only (CO) nodes, if the backplane shows as non-compliant PFxM attempts to upgrade and it Fails.

This article explains using the Boot Optimized Storage Solution - S2 (BOSS-S2) configuration utility to import a foreign virtual disk, a feature only when the controller detects a foreign disk.

The guide explains converting a hard drive to non‑RAID by iDRAC, then claiming it for a PowerFlex Virtual Storage Area Network (VSAN) cluster and assigning cache or capacity roles.
