MLM is enabled by default. If you want to use PreScan and
Notes:
PostScan but do not see the MLM Media Verification screen,
check to see if MLM is disabled (see Enabling MLM and
Configuring Global Settings on page 255).
If the partition uses SAS drives, the partition cannot use
FullScan or QuickScan with Global Spares.
If a partition uses multiple exporting controllers, the
partition cannot use QuickScan.
If you enable PostScan, the options for SKLM or KMIP
Encryption are not available on the Encryption screen.
