Known Issues. * Support for Clustering and Multi_LUN is not available in this release. * CD-ROM boot installation issues. When installing Solaris 8, Unixware 7.1.X, or OpenUnix 8, you must use that OS's bootable floppy disk method to install the OS. Alternately, you may use a CD-ROM attached to other HBA's or onboard controllers (i.e IDE CD-ROM). Please consult your OS's installation manual for floppy disk installation instructions. Note: You still may have a CD-ROM attached to the Mylex RAID controller for installing OS from CD, but not to boot from. * The list of qualified hard drives is updated as qualifications are completed. Please consult the Mylex web site at www.mylex.com for the most recent information. * Configuration on Disk (COD) save and restore is not available with GAM at this time. It is however, available using iDACUTIL. * Performance issues have been seen when using flat SCSI ribbon cables instead of higher quality twisted-pair cables. This is especially true when attached to external devices like CD-ROMs. * With certain SAF-TE enclosures the Enclosure Details tab of GAM may not display any information. * Issues have been seen when using some U320 hard drives with downlevel code. Check with your drive manufacturer to be certain you have the most recent code. * Operation with Mylex external RAID controllers is not fully implemented, and problems may occur if they are mixed in a system. * Erratic behavior has been observed with some U320 enclosures and SAF-TE enclosure services. Contact your enclosure manufacturer for their latest updates. ==================================================================== VI.) Notices.
