Dell MD Storage Array vCenter Plug-in
Description
Changing the password of a
storage array does not
prevent the Plug-In from
displaying the storage array
properties. Any changes to
the storage array from the
plug-in will fail, however.
The Plug-In does not
reflect the name change
after performing a clear
configuration on the
storage array.
Default host group
mappings are not displayed
within vCenter Plug-In. If
no virtual disks are mapped
to the ESX host or host
group, mappings from the
default host group are used
and not displayed within
the vCenter Plug-In.
The installation log does
not contain any
information about the
Pegasus service starting.
The Plug-In displays
improper error messages in
some situations.
Workaround
If the storage array password is
changed, remove and re-add the
storage array to the Plug-In or edit
the settings of the storage array
from the Plug-In and set the
password field to the current
password.
If the storage array configuration
is cleared from PowerVault
Modular Disk Storage Manager,
the storage array must be removed
and re-added to the Plug-In to
detect the change.
Explicitly map a virtual disk to the
ESX host or host group to prevent
the default host group virtual
disks from being mapped.
After installation, verify that the
cimserver service has been started
from services.msc window.
Due to the limited return codes
from SMI-S provider, some error
codes might be erroneous. Include
all information and details when
troubleshooting these errors.
