C.8 Functional Differences Between Version 5.7.1 or Later and
Versions Earlier Than 5.7.1
In versions earlier than 5.7.1, if the HDLM driver fails to allocate memory for an I/O
operation when reading or writing from the HDLM device, it returns an error instead
of retrying.
In version 5.7.1 or later, the system tries to allocate the memory again and the I/O
operation is executed successfully. The number of retries can be set by the user. By
default, the system retries the operation until memory is allocated.

version 5.7.0-01 or later, even if an I/O request is sent to a path in the
status, the status of the path does not change.
In the event of path recovery after all paths have failed, the paths must be placed online
by automatic failback or by using a command before you can access the data.
