Fixed issues
- TMAN-13722: Import Protection Group - Array Match not working
- TMAN-14170: Host Summary Widget data loading prevents navigating to other vSphere Objects
- TMAN-13590: Hosts shown as not connected incorrectly when more than one host was being connected via host group
Known issues
- Deploying multiple instances in the same network will cause all appliances to receive the same DHCP address. This is due to a misconfiguration in the default DHCP configuration. This will be fixed in an upcoming release. The workaround is to deploy in different networks or use static IP addresses in the case of deploying more than one.
-
When trying to create new host group connections in an environment where NVMe/FC adapters are present, a duplicate WWN error is thrown when trying to add or update host groups in the last step, preventing the changes from being made.
