Multi-path I/O Test Software Requirements Update
Software requirements for the Multi-path I/O test in the DTM help documents in WLK 1.1 are in error.
They have been corrected for the WLK 1.2 kit.
For the WLK 1.1 kit they should read:
Software Requirements:
• Windows Server 2008
• Hardware Storage RAID array that uses either the Microsoft DSM (device specific module) or a 3rd party DSM that interfaces to Microsoft MPIO core architecture
• Software components included with the DSM or Hardware Storage RAID array being tested
User Interface Issue for Storage Test Kits in WLK 1.1
The storage submission wizard page in WLK 1.1 doesn’t display the device bus type combo box properly. The combo box is clipped and it will appear as an edit box. The user will notice this bug for disk drive, removable storage device, and medium changer submissions. If the user enters some data in that field, those data will not match with the UI data. The user will get an error message “Please complete all fields. Field:Storage_bus_type”. This issue has been fixed for the WLK 1.2 release.
The bus type or drive type controls appear as edit boxes, but internally they are combo boxes. To work around this problem the user has to select these controls and use the up/down arrow keys to choose an item from those hidden combo box items.
